Question about Roush grilles.

Hey everyone! Happy Friday to all of you!

I really like the look of the Roush grilles and I am thinking about getting one, but I have some questions about the Ford emblem.

If I get the Roush grille, I want to put my Ford emblem back on there. I think it looks better with it on, then without IMO.

How hard is it to install of the Roush grille? And how hard is to reattach the Ford emblem to the Roush grille once it is put on the truck? Can it just go over the front of my black honeycomb grille?

I look forward to your feedback.

Thanks guys! Have a good one.

I'd go with a FX2 grill! Cheaper than a Roush and still looks good!

I don't like the FX2 grille honestly. I have seen them in the showroom at my local Ford stealership and I really think the Ford Emblem is too small.

Your black grille will snap out of the surround, and the roush grille will snap in in its place, the roush grille comes with a bracket to put the ford emblem back on. Take a look at my truck in my gallery. I did what you want to do. I used to have a gold honeycomb grille. Snapping the grilles in/out of the surrounds is a little bit of a pain, but its very do-able. Just be carefule with the little plastic tabs, you'll see when you look at it. The roush grille comes with some good insructions also. I think the FX2 grille might look good on your truck also. Either way (fx2 or roush) it will look great

A damn nice looking grille but that logo is way too small.

That's its only drawback.

The price all equals out when you get the FX2 grille painted.

I ordered the Roush grille last week and it should arrive no later than Thursday of this week.

Thanks for all the help and advise.

Yeah the FX2 emblem is too small for me as well.
