Yeah, because a Raptor is only $300 more than a "normal" F150, and can tow as much, and gets the same fuel economy...

$110 for shipping! I recently shipped a 97-03 OEM L grill for about $30 via UPS. This guy has no business sense whatsoever.

Yep, but he doesn't want to play, he just wants to wear the dam jersey. And there is nothing wrong with that.

Nope. I think it will look dumb without the Raptor body.

Can someone actually post the picture of this grill? Mobile viewing of the forums won't let you see it

I think it needs a little bit of definition between the surround body, and the beginning of the "F" and the end of the "D", but other than that, with the right paint scheme, it has alot of potential. For a measly 300$ it is worth a shot. I've blown 300 in a bar in a single night and not looked back, just like the rest of you. However, airflow....... hmmm it might need a little bit of tweaking to increase flow. Nothing a drill, file, and a few hours can't fix. If he will ship to Canada, I just might try it.

It needs to be painted and installed for me to make a final judgement. I love the way the big letters look. It's so much different than anything out there save the Raptor. My main issue with all the other grills other than the Harley is they either don't fill the large space enough or it's too much and over-powers the look of the front end. The big letters might be just what it needs. The reason I think the Harley grill looks so good is the slope of the bars de-emphasizes how large the hole is.

my comment was more directed at someone getting the whole kit. The grille, fenders and hood.
