Looking to install a new grille
I'm looking to install a new grille on my 2002 F-150 XLT extended cab (dark grey). I've seen the thread on how to change your grille, but I still have a few questions.
1) have any of you used this grille? http://www.carid.com/2002-ford-f-150...es-226808.html and is it a good brand? I want a complete replacement billet grille.
2) since my truck is dark grey and my aftermarket headlights have a smoke interior, in your opinion, would a regular billet grille look good or should I get one that's black? I HATE trucks with all chrome accessories like grilles, door handles, fake air vents, windshield wipers, etc. in my opinion it looks like they bought everything on the cheesy isle at autozone. But I'm ok with just a billet grille. I just don't want to over-do it due to the stock chrome bumper
I have photos in my albums and any opinions are welcome.

IMO, billet grilles compliment best on a vehicle that has no other chrome (except wheels). Are your bumpers chrome? They should be PTM along with valance and grill surround. Go through the PICS section and look at some trucks (especially TOTM)
