I've got a dumb question. With all this talk about Billet Grilles, I'm confused. Are all the Billet Grilles for the FX4 the replacement type? I can't see how a bolt over would work with the nostril grille. I just got a bolt over Westin grille delivered today from truckaddons and of course, it didn't fit. Anyone know how hard it is to remove the nostril grille? Grille recommendations? BTW, I want to keep the Ford emblem in the middle of the billet grille.

 

The only bolt over I know of bolts inbetween the spaces in the FX4 grill. I have one from carriage works. It looks good and is a little different from everyone else I have seen. They have a pic on carriageworks web site.

 

you can put in a replacement type no problem. Just order the one that says replacement (for the XLT honeycomb style), and not the overlay/insert one. I just put one on mine this weekend. The FX4 bar grill unclips from your outer painted grille surround. And I took my Ford emblem off the stock FX4 grille and used double sided tape to stick it on the billet grille. sorry no pics yet.

 

Carriage Works.
I said the heck with the dinner plate ford emblem. although i like them, they are a bit obnoxious.

See the grill here.
