Lincoln Mark LT Grille IMPORTANT FYI

i noticed that my lower hood bumps (at the upper bumper) were starting to get chewed up, so i closed the hood and looked in, and the factory lower bumps do NOT match up with the LT grille. so i went to the parts dept and had them look it up, sure enough, the lincoln has a different part number. the bumps are on order, another $8. if anyone cares i can post pics or part numbers. just wanted to let everyone know who has, or is thinking of, the LT grille

no, i use the truck for work (interior trim) and the sweat dirt and dust collect in the fabric and i just clean it out. i probably wont do much with the interior, just to save money. thanks for the compliments though! for the record its about $25k less

Looking at your gallery, what's different about the tail lights, other than them sticking out further to accomodate the "reflectors" that go on the LT's tailgate?

Just curious, what kind of grille did you have in it before you changed to the Lincoln grille? BTW, looks great!

Thanks for the info! You da man! By any chance, do you have the part number? I'm on the phone now with my bro that I'm getting all the parts through, and he said he knows which parts I'm talking about, but I wouldn't mind getting those numbers if you have 'em.

By the 2nd of July, I should have all my work done!

vegas, im really excited about yours, seems like you have the money to actually have some fun i dont have the part numbers now, i can try to get them tomorrow, he can just look them up in the system though.

the taillights have 4 red lines in the reverse lens and stick out a little farther. ill be ordering the reflectors soon for the tailgate, as soon as i get that paintwork done

i had a trex full billet grille in before, but i didnt like the look, it wasnt as clean as the install of the LT grille. before that, just the plain black honeycomb

no, there is a built in "cradle" in the LT grille to hold a spherical bump, no matter how i adjust them, the grill is either loose, pushing the bumps down, or cutting into them. ill try to get a pic today to explain it a little better.

i sold the billet grill before i bought the LT one
