After talking with TampaSVT about his Street Scene Speed Grill on his L I decided that my 2000 XLT had to have one... Well, get this, the grill insert for the 2000 XLT is $140... the insert for the L is $85! What the @&#^? This is the first time I have ever heard of a comparable L part being less than a "regular" F-150 part. I was always under the impression that the regular F-150's and the L's had the same grill surrounds. Can anyone clarify? What is the difference... besides $55 for the grill? LOL

 

Howdy MisterP...

I got a price for a grill shell for a 2001 "L" of $166.48 from the dealer. And get this: It's color-matched and clear-coated from the factory! But that is the complete grill that goes around the lights and has the 5 gray bars complete.
The part number is IL3Z 8299 ABA.

Are you trying to buy the complete "GRILL SHELL" in a factory color, with the grill insert? What is the part number?

I always like to talk part numbers ... otherwise it's too confusing and you never know what's up...

 

Hi,
I thought so too until I bought mine and put in on. It is made slightly different in the front and gives a more bolder line outward. I too got mine for around 170 from the dealer. have to pay to play as I was always told.

 

The sourrounds you guys bought include the whole surround that surrounds the headlights, turn signals, and also includes the grill in the middle?!

 

I was told at my local dealers this is the only way to get just the grille. Which is all that I really wanted anyway. But hey, I have a flame red surround and stock 2000 black grille if anyone is interested.

 

2000S/C4x4,
E-mail me if you would I have a interest in your grill. I guess from your post you are selling it?? I`m looking for a red one to try something on.
