Default 17 to 18 front end conversion kit?

When is this happening and who wants to take all my money? I talked some sh*t about the 18 front ends when they came out but damn I’ve grown to love them.

This needs to be a thing. Soon.

Its already happening. Just buy the parts needed directly from Ford. Or pay a middle man mark up to sell you the same parts and call it a "Kit".

Overall the 18 face-lift gives the f150 a more soft look, whereas the 15-17 looks more tough, yet the whole truck didn't look so tough compared to the 12th gen, which everyday feels like an imposing truck!

From the 15-17 front ends I preferred the limited grill and the two tone ones that had the grill and direct below section of bumper same color or chrome, such as king ranchs.

The 18s don't like any of the grill options, except the lariat grills in color match to body - it looks superb!!

Most of all I love the 18 SE/SXT grill, that's why enlarged the hole in the wallet to get it

I hated the 18 at first too, now I kinda love the 18 front end.
