I returned the lund frontrunner and the ss grilles and orderd the lebra front cover for my truck.I think it will look a lot nicer with the bright red clearcoat, it is black.Also have black nerf bars,black tonneau,tinted windows.Does any one have any opinions on the LeBra.It was $93.00 shipped to my door.The front runner and ss grilles were over $200.So I saved some money too.

Have not tried LeBra on my truck but my son put one on his Probe yesterday. Looks very nice and fits well, except for the pieces that fit over the retractable headlights. They don't fit at all and slide off as soon as the lights go down into the closed position. Not enough clearance between the quarter panels and the edge of the headlight body.

 

I have the Ford two-piece bra and like it very much. What do you think?

Marv1 I like that very much I think it will make a big differance on my truck.everybody's got the bug shields not to many with the bra's.It looks real good on the white I hope it looks as good on the red.How much from Ford I was looking and the only thing I could find was the Lebra.By the way I just put in the catchall floor mats those are pretty cool too, they say you can take em out and wash em with a hose.Keep you posted.

Barlitz:
Ford actually refers to it as a "full front end cover" in the F-series accessory catalog. The two-piece cover lists for $121.10 and is item #AFS1201. Don't think it will fit on your 250 but Ford probably makes one that will.

I bought a front end cover for my '98 Windstar. It allowed grit to accumulate inside along the entire length of the painted bumper at the top where the front-end piece met the bumper. The wind and vibration caused the grit to rub and scuff the paint; about an eighth inch line across the whole bumper! it was a PITA to rub it out.
I'll never buy another one! I still use the hood piece, though.

 

To be honest with you I am a fanatic when it comes to my truck,I had a Lightning last summer and it was washed every other day and waxed with liquid glass every Sunday.I will be doing the same with this truck I wash it once a month in the winter and wash and liquid glass once a week during spring,summer and fall, and I will pop off the Bra and clean there to.I'm just hoping I don't have that stupid oil head gasket leak this will be my last Ford if that is the case.

I got my Lebra 3 days after ordering from internet.probably will install this weekend depending on weather.Its been #^%tty up here in Boston,but I did notice it wraps all the way around front bumper and there are openings for the fog lights could look pretty cool, we'll see.I'll post after install.

Installed lebra today,wasn't sure if I was gonna like it because it goes all the way down to under the bumper with openings for the fog lights and tow hooks.But after install it looks pretty good makes truck look a little meaner almost like it has an air dam like the lightning.I washed and waxed truck first, install took about 15 minutes.My truck is exact picture of red one Marv1 posted with the Ford bra.I thought that looked good but this looks good also.I will try taking a photo and scanning onto computer.
