Default 2012 F150 front bumper lower grille

Two questions really.

First how do you uninstall and reinstall the two black bumper pads?



Second part. Im wanting to replace the two bumper pads with a full length lower grille as seen in the second picture. Is this done by an aftermarket complete front bumper, or can it be done another way?

The are held inplace by 4 large tabs. Reach behind the bumper and compress the end of the tabs to release them.

If all else fails ... pry them off.

Replace the lower bumper (and grile) with one from a Limited or Harley Davidson.

So are we positive that the Limited/Harley valence will fit on different bumpers? Thanks!

AutoNation>Ford *Recommend using this dealers web site for part look-up (gives part #s) and retail pricing.

FordPartsDiscount *Use the part #s here to get wholesale pricing.

HINT: The (Lariat) Limted and the Harley Davidson models were both available in 2011. Otherwise - 2012 (Harley Davidson), 2013|2014 (Limited)

The 2013-14 Limiteds have the Ecoboost engine so don't they have the same bumper as the 2011 Limited and Harley F150s.

Huh. I've never removed my bumper caps, but I figured there'd be some aftermarket bumper grill that was longer/wider to cover the entire area after the caps have been removed. No such thing, eh?
