the good ole' ebay grilles. i love the look with all the bars so thats why i went with them. being 1/2 the price of other billets was just an added bonus. ;)
 






Nice, man. What is the name of the grille?

Btw- Is that a duallie you parked in front of? Is it suped up ?

X-Factor, here is a link to the grille on ebay. if you just contact the seller, i think he will just sell you the grille outright at the ebay price. if not they are always on there and theres no reason to bid more than the starting price. also, the bumper billet he just sells outright through his company:

thats my cousins 2001 dodge ram. don't hate him, he used to have an F-150 :D
 






This is just my opinion, but I don't really like the headlight covers. They just dont do it for me. Looks a little to "plastic-e" for me. I love the billet though, it looks great. If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for it?
 






any night shots or the headlight covers?

matt, i think it was about $69 on ebay. they are always on there. as for the light covers, i wouldn't take'm off if someone paid me. i don't like the headlights on the X's and i love the covers. probably b/c not too many people have'm. i like it to be different. if they actually made quality clear corners that stay cear and not turn yellow, i would consider putting them in with some nice blue bulbs to match the fogs. that would be tight.

any night shots or the headlight covers?

no, but since it's night here now, what better time than this? i'll go take some before i go to work.
 






Thats understandable..... To each his own.. Would you ever consider the headlight covers that "blackout" everything? Those are pretty tight. Nice looking truck dude.:cool:

not really, simply b/c i like these covers better, but even better, these are legal :D
 






here's just some quick pics. i have to go to work so i'll get better ones up asap. i'll get some far away shot and stuff. and NO, that oil spot underneath is not mine :knockonwood:

you get a little bit of a look at the silverstars and fogs too. again, farther away might give you a better idea.

thanks. i like the covers alot b/c they are different. not too many people have them compared to the all blackout covers.
 






i'll start off by saying that i think that your truck looks really nice. i e-mailed this ebay seller and asked him if there was drilling required. he said yes. could you please tell me about how much...and did it pain you a lot to put that many holes in your truck? how many holes did you have to drill and how hard was it to put in. thanks!

wait a minute, there is NO DRILLING whatsoever. the grille attatches with a bunch of zip ties. thats one of the other major reasons i got this grille, for no drilling. i took off the front chrome grille surround to make it easier. then you have to take off the ford emblem fore the grille to fit, easy. then, i painted the part of the main grille that is behind the billet black so that the bars or anything would not show through the billet. then you just line up the billet with the opening and zip tie the hell out of it. taking the main grille of makes it easier to zip tie the billet to it. the whole process, painting and all took about 2 hours. it's easy. i have no clue why you would have to drill. you should email the seller again to find out whats up.
 






hey, thanks a lot for the info and the quick reply...i will check with him again
