To me the GM isnt as nice as the Paramount. I am surprised FORD hasn't put a stop to him. The way the letters are held on the GM grill looks like it wont last. I have the Paramount grill and my lights were yellow but I used Lamin-x 1 coat on them and they are amber now. I still have a bunch left over if you guys want I can ship you some pieces.
If you look @ post 2637. It screws on from the back
Yeah I know. The grille that treepoint5zero installed and the one that Jabooh1 just received are NOT the same grille. 2 companies are making a similar looking grille with the mounting area for the Ford oval and a center bar. There are also 2 different F O R D lettered raptor style grilles. If you look closely at the bottom you will see what I am talking about. One style is made with a wider framed area along the bottom the other does not have that. The Grille in the top photo also has a wider bar then the grille in the lower photo.
I am trying to find out if the top grille has the bar and oval section molded into the whole grille or if it is screwed and clipped on like the grille in the bottom photo.

The folks at "Paramount" (DOOD grille) via (stage3Motorsports) must have updated the light situation..i just installed my grill last week.. I will tell you they are 100% amber. I purchased the F and R on Ebay (shipped within the USA not China) so the matte finish matches the other letters.

Both grilles have mesh behind the emblem bezel. I would think they wouldn't have bothered to put mesh back there if the bar wasn't removable.
I was struggling with that but, yes, I had the honeycomb painted. Very happy with the result. With a black truck, the only other option was to paint the honeycomb a matte black b/c I didn't think the gray looked good. I'd probably leave it gray on any other colored truck.
