Question H-Bar Grille Help

Alright, well...
On my '08 STX, I have the H-Bar grille, and I want to go with a horizontal billet... Problem is, is that it seems like everywhere I look, you can only find the billet grilles for the "honeycomb" style grilles...
My question is simply this:
Where can I find a billet that will fit my truck, AND what kind of install am I looking at here? Bolt-on, cutting, etc? Thanks ya'll!

I just gave up looking, and replaced my H-bar grill with a honeycomb. You can buy the honeycomb only grill for 40 bucks or less used if you shop Ebay or here on the trades and swap section. You keep your outer ring.

Ford will not sell just the grill; they sell you the entire grill and outer ring assembly; expensive.

The reason vendors are not plentiful for billet style grills for H-bars is because the billet grill will not be flush or "clean" against the outer trim ring; the H-bar does not allow this.
