Help?

I need to get a new radiator support cover, the little black plastic piece on top. I had my parts guy order me a new one but it came and it didn't look anything like my old one. KRAZY KANUCK posted pictures of his motor compartment on his E-FAN install and sadly enough, it looks like the one he sent me. Did Ford do away with the old design and this is the only one now? If so, damn, the new one looks like crap!!

So if any techs could help out? . . or if people with 2006s and 2007s could post pictures of their motor compartment it'd help out a lot!!

So its in fact a completely different cover?

Yes they are completely different.
Question is how far are you from Disneyworld. We will be going there with the kids for the the week of May 19th to 26th. I could save alot of shipping hassles and just bring it with me and we could swap them then.

I'm about 1 to 1-1/2 hours away.

I'm sure my truck will be done by than so that'll work!! Do you have a chrome surround? If so, we could swap those too if you'd be willing!

Nope. I bought the FX2 grille but of course it came with the PTM surround. A Lariat grille lists for around $350 so I was trying to find someone who would just swap me the chrome for my black surround.

As long as your grill is painted we could swap out the insides when we swap them as i dont think the grill will survive the trip there without being supported around the edges.

Thats fine. I'll keep in touch with you as it gets close to that time. If not, hit me up.

I appreciate it a lot!
