Replacement Billet Grill / No Drilling
Hello All,
Just got an brand new FX4, and I don't really like how the truck looks with the darker grill. I was wondering if there was a direct swap for the F150 that would replace the whole grill not just the inner part. I would like to be able to throw the stocker back on if need be.
This link shows an install of a Billet grill where they cut it out to fit, I am looking for the whole piece that they place on the bench to work on, maybe chrome surround with billet bars???

None of them offer the complete surround and mounting brackets for a swap type replacement. All the ones I have seen are the insert. The one I have is made by Roush for the "chrome edition" package you see on the 06's. It pretty much just swaps right out with the FX4 insert in 20 minutes or less. If you go to your dealer and tell em you want the grille that's on the chrome edition truck out there, I bet they can get it for you. It runs about $250

There are several chrome ones on ebay....chrome surround and chrome center (both in H-Bar and Honeycomb). I thought about buying one for the chrome center...then just went with the LT grille instead, but they do look good!

The carraige works is a direct replacement. NO cutting at all, you just take the old one out and put the new one in. You do have to drill 3 small holes inthe bottom of the surround but you can't see it when the hood is closed. I got mine from moss motors.
