Guys:

I made it with a buddy of mine. Here is how. It is also removable so I can get the original look back if I want. I will send a series of pictures to illustrate how we did it.

I love the grille. I'd rather one without any decal or anything on it though..

So minus the "Raptor" and that is something I would throw on my truck.

Rest of the truck looks good too, but that stood out to me as it's been something I've been considering options for.. (Getting rid of the brand stamp on the front) without leaving too big of a black hole in it's place.

Be nice if there was something available on the market to accomplish that.

Not a fan of chrome up front... not a fan of too many brand stamps. It's not like anyones going to mistake the damn thing for a Honda civic if you don't stamp Ford all over the grille. Leave the letters in my alphabet soup, and off of my grille.

I can always go for some smooth sheet metal, stamp free.
