Default 2015 vs 2018 front grill

Has anyone looked at converting your 2015-2017 front grill/lights and replace them with 2018? It looks like the lights would fit on the end contour, just need to get the entire front grill pieces including the molding?

One thing that turned me off on the 2015 - 17 was the front grill. Styling didn't seem to be a big priority with Ford when these trucks came out.

I find it's really difficult to see the front of the truck when I'm driving it.

Just get Raptor style grill for it. Always hated the look of the stock grill on my 08. I love the look of the Raptor grill. Looks good on just about any F150 99 and up.

Dude, you're not only not on the right vehicle, you're not even in the right decade!
