Grille for bumper??

I have the FX2 grille in my truck now and I am looking for a grille to put the front bumper to fill the void. I have seen some grilles while lookin on ebay, but nothing that matches the FX2 grille very well. What would you guys suggest??

TIA
Paul

i love mine. i thought it was pricey for all that it is. it looks totally stock. ford should of finished it that way before letting them leave the assembly line.

i couldnt find anything, and was thinking of the black chrome speed grilles. i havent seen too many pics of them installed, tho, so i cant say for sure if it would match color-wise or not.

Thanks for the input guys!! I am going to do some more looking and maybe buy a few lower grilles to try. As for the color matching, my FX2 is painted black, so I will just have to paint the lower also, once I find the right one.

Ive said it before, and everyone has flamed me for it...

It is expensive, but get another one and do some cutting! it would match perfectly and look alot better, IMO....You might check junk yards, someone is bound to have wrecked an FX2, ive seen several heaps in yards around here...
