How awful was the removal/reinstall of the grille? Similar to '04-'08 (not that bad)?

 

Not sure what it was like on the 04-08's...but this wasn't too bad. I did bust off a few of the clips on the old grille that go into the top of the hood...but it sounds like that happens to everyone trying to take off an old grille.

 

You going to throw the bug visor back on? I bought one for my black FX4 but it's still sitting in the box while I make my decision if I really want it on the truck or not.

 

Looks good!

I'm not a big fan of the huge chrome wall that comes on the front of out trucks either. I picked up a black plastic one off of fleabay last week and I'm going to drop it off Monday to have it painted to match my truck (platinum white), should look much better IMO. I definitely need to get a set of those heads and tails too, complete the expedition limited look that I'm kinda going for.

Any plans to get rid of the chrome bumper, or are you keeping it like that?

 

I'm keeping the bug guard I think.

As far as the rest of the chrome, I'm keeping it as is.

 

The bug guard looks good with that grill IMO.

 

Does it stick out far from the front of the hood?? I'm also debating on taking the F150 decal off.

 

Looks awesome BD... although I was going to say the same thing, but Darren beat me too it. gloss black would be great! Once again tho, one of my favorite 09's

 

I'd say it's about a half to one inch.

 

Thanks, John.
