Hey Brimstone,

I just saw a picture of what I assume is your truck and your upper and lower grilles look awesome. I'm working on a project that requires either new grilles, or that I cut out each of the honeycomb hex's on the ends of the lower grille (not a project I look forward to). Since your grilles look so bada$$, thought I'd ask what/where/how much?

TIA,
-W

 

Wheels,

I got the grilles from Roger on the F-150 Online Store. They are Trenz billet grilles, they come powdercoated black from Trenz but I think you have to special request it.

I don't remember the cost, that just shows how much money I've spent on this truck already, but I think around $400.

Mike

 

Thanks.

Are you happy with the grilles and how was the install?

Thanks,

Grilles and powdercoat are great quality. Rivets that came with grilles were cheap, but you can just buy better ones yourself. Install was a challenge for someone like me. Now if I could do it again it would have been much better and quicker. If I were to show my vehicle I would have to buy new front surround/bottom bumper and do the install better.

 

here's how to install them..

The grill is cool, now I have to save up for the lower grill. It was either the lower grill, or a set of headers for my 66 chevy. Can you believe that no auto parts store in Anchorage carries universal Chevy Big Block Hugger Headers?!?!?! Hears a picture of what I requested. Went around town with this picture in hand like it was a kidnapped kid. They will be here Monday.


Well, time to act my age and hit up some bars...

Hey Clonetek,

That's a great how-to! Thanks. I'm sure it will save me a bunch of time and hopefully I won't have to tell the grille to "FIT DAMMIT" and risk being struck.

Thanks,
