billet grille question

I bought a billet grille for my 99 f150. It is one of those that you have to pull out your factory grille and bolt the new one up in its place. (Not an overlay) My problem comes in with the ford emblem. Since the grill has no place for the emblem, how do i attach it to my new grille. The grille is a stull wide bar billet grille. Where can i find a new emblem for the grille.

No logo is the way to go. You'll be surprised how many comments you'll get. Not to mention your own satisfaction.

yeah go ahead and send him ur stock one. I wouldn't let him have mine because if I get rid of my truck in like 3 or 4yrs I wanna convert mine back to 100% stock.

but just going without the logo looks more modified, I set my emblem on my new billet grill and my truck seriously looked like it had the '99 - '00 Harley grill. Looks more modified without the logo.

originally you said if your billet doesnt rust over the winter, you will give me your honeycomb. And that was a legal binding verbal agreement. I will need you to send me that grill on Feb 1 of 07. Or else!!!!

ok, first off, i'm in Pennsylvania it snows up to like April

and 2nd that billet one better last, but in a year once i get a better F150 I want to bolt the billet on my new F150 and throw the stocker back on, ahh I could probably get both trucks together & swap grills maybe. Only takes 15 minutes
