I love the looks of those Lincoln trucks! The grilles are beautiful. You have the almost exact look, while saving thousands! Congrats! Looks good.

That right there shows you that the Lincoln truck is a ripoff. A change of grille, emblems, and wheels and you have an LT. The interior of the F150 is nice enough to be in a Lincoln. And for the amount of money they are charging for the LT, you would have thought they would have at least put in a bigger engine or something. Hell, $40K+ for a truck and they don't even offer HID headlights???!!!!!

By the way, nice truck - I was in no way bashing yours.

Could you give a description of how you put the Mark LT emblems on? My brother and I are going to do the same swap on his '05, and was wondering if the holes (if any) line up, is there adhesive, how did you peel off the existing emblems, that sorta thing. Nice looking LT ya have there

The Mark Lt emblems are held on with Doublesided tape. I used fishing line to remove the old emblems. There are two holes that the notches on the emblems fit into. pretty simple job.

Yeah you are so right! The dealer wanted $45,000 for a 2wd Mark LT with less options than my $32,000 4wd Lariat.

Looks great! Thanks for the info. I have the same mark lt emblems sitting in my center consol, but I just got a set of all chrome ones that I plan to use instead. Good to hear that the holes line up, I was concerned about that.

You forgot about that ugly chrome molding along the bottom.
I like this one MUCH better.

I got the grill on Ebay a few months back for around $160 but it seems to have went up to $260

Mine came with the primed grey surround son I used my lariats chrome one and imho it looks better that way then on the actual Mark LTs

Your truck already looks great so you might as well put those emblems on. Before i did I had like 3 different people stop me in a parkinglot and ask me was it a Mark LT or F150.
