Black billet grill installed
Trending Topics
I recently installed the exact same grill. It looks awesome. I didnt re-use the Black oval that I had on the stock FX4 grill. The only complaint i have is that you can see through it a little to easily. And the radiator gets bugs all over it.. and it is hard to clean without bending the fins... Im thinking about adding some kind of screen behind it to keep out the bugs and make it a little harder to see through.

PS you should also consider the lower grill insert that matches. It really pulls the look together. and it installes in about 1/100th of the time it takes to install the upper grill.

I also have the same grill...and the same complaint although im planning on fabricating a small light bar to go in front of the grill so it won't be a problem seeing though it much longer.

As for the "see through" problem...I hated that too. So what I did is take some black screen door wire mess and put it in front of the radiator. This not only blacked out all the stuff you see behind the grille it also protects the radiator (well AC condensor) from bugs and debris.
I think im going to try to put some mesh back there... I think it will make it look alot better. Although it is hard to tell in the pictures...
Here are some pictures i took of the truck today.
