Attn : All Grill Experts Please Identify !!

I bought this truck with this grill on it. Can anyone identify the brand?? I have been asked a bunch of times what brand the grill is... I cannot give them an answer..... This is one thing that I had no part in changing on my truck..... I do not know if the grill on the lower vallence was part of a set or not.
If you have any information please respond.... Thanks !!!

Not sure, but looks sort of like one by Carriage Works. Probably a set. Is it metal or plastic?

Personally, I do not care for the thin, "many" bars type gilles. I like the Harley Davidson best and the Roush next. Or depending on the truck color, the Fx2 grille. One other point, I have never liked a chrome grill surrond either. But, it's all a matter of what one prefers. Many on here will love that grille.

Thanks for the info.... I looked on Carriage Works website and I found one that looks like mine exactly.....with the exception that it says it does not require cutting the factory grill. Mine is cut all the way around with some of my factory grill attached. With the hood closed you can put your hand under the grill and grab it and flap it pretty good. It seems like a rig.... With the hood up it you can tell a little more...looks like a hack job..... but maybe all of the ones that require cutting on the original grill look like hack jobs....
