Going to have to see it painted an on the truck to make the call on this one. Any idea the price they are wanting for it?

Ditto. I need to see it painted and on the truck. Personally, I think the grille's bulk is designed for a widebody truck (hence the Raptor), and won't look AS great on a regular F150. Of course, that's my opinion. Lastly, will this have the Raptor running light slots? That would be important for me, too.

I knew I held off doing somethinng with my grille for a reason. That looks awesome! Have to see it painted and on a truck first! Wish I knew how much they are going to want.

I would have preferred to see it with more of the 'brick wall' type design the Raptor grill has, not a crappy mix of the 09-10 FX4/Lariat mesh/Raptor 'FORD' grille...

the next photo after that one is the 04-08 raptor conversion trucks, are you sure that grille isn't for those instead?

Not a fan, but to each his own.

Yea, I agree with a few others that it's not exactly what I am looking for as it's more of a hybrid of a Lariat grille with big FORD letters which is mostly solid and not a "true" grille in the sense of airflow, thus no where like the Raptor grille in that regard.

But at least it's something new in this area of the aftermarket...

That's interesting, the 04-08 grill looks VERY similar according to their website. Didn't know the 09 was going to be so radically different. He quoted me $200 for the grill and $110 to ship USPS but I'll wait for more pictures now.

I guess it looks OK. But what I am really looking for is a lower grill that looks similar to the grill on my 2009 Lariat. Been looking to cover the big space, just haven't found anything yet. Any ideas??

imo, just buy a raptor if you want that look. It's like putting 4x4 stickers on a 2wd truck.
