Opinion on Grill - please and thanks

http://cgi.ebay.ca/06-2006-Ford-F-15...QQcmdZViewItem

I have a 2006 supercrew Lariat - do you guys think this is a quality grill? Or junk? Obiously it looks good in the pictures but do you guys think it's good quality? It's exactly what I want - a replacement upper with a lower bumper grill aswell. I'm just weary on buying it because it's cheap...let me know what you think!

Thanks for your advice...

Matt

I put a stull upper grill on my truck for $124 and a carrige works lower grill
for $80 i think.But i'd bet you could get the lower for cheaper.I like the quality of booth.When they get dirty i break out the mothers alum. polish and they are like new.If you can find a good local parts dealer who gets free shipping from his supplier you could save on shipping.The grill you found on ebay worries me because you may have to cut your existing grill suround and i'd ask about their return policy incase it is junk.Less of a crap-shoot that way.

So is yours still a replacement grill but requires no cutting? It seems that all the ones I find on the net say they involve cutting. I don't want just a boltover I want a replacement.

By the way - Nice truck!

thanks for the reply...

anyone else?

Its not a bolt over what you have to do is disassemble the stock grill and remove the plastic vent portion and replace it with the billet grill.I didnt have to cut the surround at all it just bolts up to the same mounting holes as the stock grill.

ZR-900 can I ask where you got your parts from? I can't seem to find them, at least not for the prices you are quoting.

Okay so now I get it - the ebay one is a crappier one that doesn't come with the grill surround but there are other ones that come with a grill surround already on it and you just bolt it right on? Seems like that would be ideal and worth paying more for..
