I am visiting the States from the UK and have taken the plunge and bought a King Ranch F 150.
I am adding one or two extras and the other day came across a company offering various alternative grilles.
The best bit was the very clear illustrated instructions they gave for fitting....of course now I can't recollect the website...anyone redirect me?!
Also what grill would look best on this vehicle (Chestnut clearcoat)
In the UK we get clear headlight protectors for guarding against costly damage to headlights...over here the ones I see seem mostly to be smoked effect (illegal?)....is that so?
Many thanks for anticipated help, and can I get clear ones?

Will you be shipping your King Ranch back to GB? Concerning headlamp covers, I can recommend protective covers made by X-Pel. They make custom fit protective covers which are installed directly on your headlamps. The covers are actually a 3M film which becomes invisible a few days after installation. You can check out the covers on their website http://www.xpel.com. Performance Products also stocks the covers. Just follow their installation instructions and you won't have any problems. Putco manfactures a "virtual grill" which fits directly over the existing factory grill. I've installed one on my F150 and it looks very nice. Putco's website is http://www.Putco.com Good luck and have a nice visit here in the states.

 

Thanks very much for your kind reply....I will look into those covers.
I have shipped cars back to the UK in the past but it is an expensive and nerve wracking experience.
This one may get to go back but it will be a few years down the line when the value can be written down and make the import duties more bearable.
I have now trawled through my cookies and found the web site I was looking for that gives good illustrated instructions for changing grills.
For the benefit of others it is at www.grillcraft .com.

Thanks again
