New Lower Grille is on! (PICS)
Got alot done today since i got home early
washed the truck, then started on the new lower grille insert
the upper grille still hasn't gotten here yet, but it should any day now
STOCK- OMG that looks soooo friggin nice without the gay azz **** yellow license plates on the front LoL!
Removing the lower grille was suprisingly easy to do. Just take the plate off, take out 3 screws on the bottom of the valance, take off 4 screws off the top of the valance, and pop 3 metal clips off with a flathead screw driver. and bam, the lower grille is off....although, no intercooler makes this job ALOT easier i would assume. LoL
Old stock chrome lower grille, and new j-jent chrome lower grille

Can you say flush mount baby!
looks a billion times better flush mounted IMO, more stock looking, and no grille behind it. a huge thanks to Mitch from FTW for making me the brackets for it
Front view closeup.....working on a solution with the tag, i'll post later on if i can get the idea to work out for me
Truck looks weird now with different sized upper and lowers The upper should get here any day now, and it'll make a huge improvement

o yeah, just one other mod i did a few days ago
Stock 00 Centercaps
03 HD centercap...only problem is, 3 of the four brand new centercaps from ford were damaged. so now i've got one new centercap and 3 old ones, waiting for the replacements to come in
Been a busy mod month so far! Ceramicoated tips (see other thread), j-jent lower insert, keystone hood (seee other thread), new centercaps, got drop springs waiting for me to install them, and a chip waiting for a reburn, and a rear sway bar being powdercoated right now
