Try this: # Do the plot without the x axis plot(cars, xlim = c(0, 25), xaxt = "n") # Do the x axis in grey with tick marks at 0:25 # without labels axis(1, at = 0:25, labels = NA, col = "grey") # Now do the default tick marks in black with labels axis(1) See ?plot.default, ?par (for 'xaxt') and ?axis for more information.
