OEM grill from ebay

I know this isnt suspension but I didnt know where else to put it. My question is will this grille from ebay fit my 2001 F150? It says only 97-98 4WD F150's but its looks the same as another grille and it says for 97-03 all F150 models. So shouldnt it fit my 2001?

I can't tell by looking at that, but the 97-98 grill, surround, and front bumper is different than the 99-03's.

that looks like a 99-03 grill. the 97-98 grills aren't the honeycomb style. btw, "other body" or something mighta been alright, just a heads up though 'cause some guys get a little picky when people post in the wrong section

97-98 grille are straight across at the bottom. The 99-03s dip down into the bumper.

My bad...that is a 99-03 grille. The 97-98 black grills will have an x-shaped pattern instead of the honeycomb as on that one.

When I get my new grill, can I just pop out the old 2-bar style one and pop this one in or do I got to do some screwing and cutting?

I would take the whole grill surround out. Take out headlights and corners, and then there are a couple plastic pins that go up into the surround, two screws behind the corner lights, and the a big plastic support going back from the bottom of the surround.

then you can take the old grill out of the surround easier, and get the new one in without breaking anything.
