Stock looking lower grill?

I haven't seen anything about it on this website, so I thought I'd ask.

I have a Lariat SCrew with the 2-tone paint. The bottom of my truck is the Arizona Beige so the bumpers and the grill are the same beige color. Does Ford or anyone else make a matching grill for the lower opening? I don't really like the way there is just a hole there and being in Florida, there is no requirement for front license plate. I was hoping to be able to cover the hole with a matching honeycomb grill.

I like seeing the billet grills, but I'm just not a big fan of chrome. I actually like the look of my stock grill and would like something to match. Any help or advice would be great.

I'd buy a stock one too if it were available ... but it's not. The billet are all that I've ever seen, etc.

Those street scene grills are about as close as i've seen. You could always try just the lower and have it painted if it looks close enough for you. Black would be alot easier to get away with something like that, but just a thought. Then if it's close but they just don't match, you could get the top

I posted on this a few months back and noone was able to find one for me. Hopefully Ford will take note, or their grill supplier, and come out with one.

Im with all of you guys, Id buy one too if someone would make it. If there were a manufacturer out there to make a honeycomb lower grill they would make some money on 04 Fords.

I have seen alot of guys posting the honeycomb grill inserts on ebay. Looks like they removed them from there truck for another grill. I am not sure if it would work but you might be able to take one of those and cut it down to the size of the lower opening and then bolt it on. Not sure if it would work but just a thought.

As long as we're talking about the lower grill on the Lariat, has anyone else seen a new Ford commercial showing the lower grill surround and vertical elements chrome plated? I've seen it several times, and I'm thinking it's a local commercial because it advertises incentives. It really dresses up the front end. Just wondering if a new lower grill is a mid year change for the Lariat.
