Try getting the FX2 Ford emblem. It's smaller than normal Ford emblem that comes on standard grills.

That would be great, I tried to fab my own. As awful of an idea as this is going to sound like, I taped off the opening around were the grille goes so my paint was protected and built some tabs which I tried sticking to the inside part of the bumper with JB Weld, but they didn't hold in place(wouldn't bond to the bumper), that seemed to me like the best way to keep everything hidden and mount it in, tabs around the opening of my bumper and then black zip ties was my plan but it failed miserably...onto plan B

I went down to a Dealer and checked out some emblems today I might just get one off an FX2, or possibly get a Roush Emblem once I have lots of Roush parts. Or keep it without an emblem. I bought a Harley Emblem, but it was much smaller then I thought when it arrived. It looked goofy on there.

I do have my OEM Harley Grille, untouched and in mint condition, but I think I am going to hold onto it. I might swap it back in sometime just to see how it looks. I also have a set of OEM Harley Tails, and OEM Harley Catback Exhaust parts. I'd be will to part with the Exhaust pieces, but not so much the tails, not sure how much I trust or like these Depo Tails. I like the looks, but I am kind of expecting them to leak at some point.

I've been trying to get good pictures of my new Dome lights but its hard to take a good shot, I bought an LED kit for them, I'm really impressed with this product so far.


Thanks for the comments guys. Lots of mixed feelings on the Grille.

I agree, the stock Harley grill would look much better.
