Default Changing out the grille?

So I love the look of the XLT sport grille, but am getting myself the Lariat sport. Could I just order the XLT sport grille and swap it out myself? I looked online and couldn't find any concrete info for the 2015's.
Thanks guys!

So I did that exact thing last weekend. Swapped out my 3 bar chrome grille, had a chrome grille on my 05 and just wanted a different look, to a xlt black grille. I am keeping my chrome grille just in case I do want to go back to that tho.

Definitely used a couple of forum threads to see what I was getting into, but all in all pretty straight forward. Took maybe a hour or so from start to finish.

Got the grille part number I wanted then went on line and found quite a few different prices, so shop around for sure.

Good luck!

I have a Lariat Sport grille that I sprayed with plastidip and glossifier. While the spray job came out fine, the end result wasn't what I was looking for. Replaced it with a new painted to match grille. PM me if you are interested in the plastidipped grille.

Not sure you meant to post my quote, I didn't match my grille to my truck color. My truck is magnetic and my replaced grille is black.

I would search eBay for the ingot silver grille, tho I'm not sure that's out there. If you do find it maybe don't buy on Ebay though, prices seem kinda high, but grab the part number then do a Google search... good luck!

I searched for 15' grille replacement and couldn't find a how-to. Does a how-to exist on the subject? I'm interested in swapping out my Black XLT Sport grille
