pics of aftermarket fx4 grille

I am in the market for a new grille for my 06 fx4. Pics would be greatly appreciated. Also a price or range for the item purchased.

Well that narrows it down a bit...

What type of grille are you interested in? Bolt-over, cut out, full replacement, etc? Do you want something with bars, vertical or horizontal? Black or Chrome? How much are you willing spend?

PS: I first had this bolt over on my FX4 grille..


then did a full replacement with an HD grille.

something easy to install. Horizontal bars. I like the HD that you have. How much? Maybe wishful thinking but don't want to spend more than $200

Yeah, grilles aren't cheap... I'd suggest the Roush grille, I think a guy on eBay has em cheap (don't know if they're knock off's or not)

Unless you're planning on getting a new tune, I wouldn't bother there, you won't really get any performance improvement or MPG gains...

Have you modified your exhaust yet? If you want to achieve gains from an intake, you should make sure the exhaust can keep up.

I don't have an exhaust but I do have the superchips flashpaq. I need to do some more research though I am not sure if I would gain anything with the cai and the flashpaq.
