Opinions on Lincoln grille
Hey guys...whats your opinion on the lincoln grille compared to a CW bolt over. Most people i've seen have the CW since the Lincoln is new but which do you like better? Cant decide between these two.

Looks kind of pimpy to me. I haven't really paid much attention to the new Harley grill, but I am sure that I would prefer that one, especially on a black truck.

My truck is black, definitley going for the harley grill and probably at some point, a conversion. Ford has some info on the truck on their website now at http://www.fordvehicles.com/trucks/f150/harley/

I'm not too much of a fan of the Lincoln grille...looks to me like it came from a store like this...

It really looks better in person, I think.
Checked out an LT last Friday, at the local dealership, I didn't drive it, as I didn't care that much.
They had water spots all over the grill, and they were starting to eat their way in. Our water is so alkaline here that it will burn paint. Sad.
Anyway, I was wondering if any of the Overlay companies could make a custom F-150 that would cover the Lincoln emblem, maybe an F 1 5 0 top down? dunno.
I think if you have the LT wheels to go with the LT grill, it works better. Five LT emblems make it look deliberate, one makes it look like you found the part...
That's why I haven't put one on my truck yet. I like my Lariat wheels too much to give them up. An overlay or replacment emblem would change my mind.

chris, the way the lincoln emblem is designed you cannot overlay directly on top of it. you can however remove the emblem and overlay onto the recessed area where it sat. im going to leave it on mine because i have the lincoln wheels with the emblems, and down the road im sure ill have the lincoln tailgate panel as well. so as not to clash i removed or overlayed any emblem that says ford, and im getting custom side badges made.
