As you can see by my signature picture, my truck is all plastic front end. My dad has been thinking about getting the front bumper chromated to match the back. I've also been looking around for a real chrome billet grille and the piece that goes around it (also has to be real chrome) for a 1998 F-150. I've searched JCWhitney and googled everything else, but all I was able to find were plastic $60 ones. Any link of where you guy got yours from? Thanks!

i bought a carriage works grille. i did a lot of looking around on the internet and found theirs to look the best imo. i also went to the local ford dealership and looked at their accessory truck and found out they use the carriage works as well. they sell various styles w/ or w/ out the ford logo and both the bolt over (overlay) and insert styles. imo the insert style gives the grille a clean factory look......the overlay style looks cheap since you can still see the oem grille behind it.

 

yup, check out carriage works. real good stuff

 

I got mine off of ebay $50.00 tops

 

Wow!!! Thats hot! That is exactly what I've been searching for. Does that come with the piece that surrounds the headlights or is it just the grille itself? I'd like to find something JUST like that and have the shell wraparound either chrome or Oxford White to match my paint like you have there. Do you know the manufacturer of the grille and where I could get in contact with them? Thanks!

BTW: I checked out carriage works, but it appears they do not show pictures of their products and they say they are billet aluminum, I'm looking for a real chrome grille.
