Looks great with that grille J. I almost asked what was going on. I see they changed that trim piece, mine's a '17, and the bread boxes and center piece are all in one.
Feels good having it back, eh.

Thanks! It is very nice having it back and not having to sit around waiting for the wife to get home with the car. The body shop was great about swapping that grille and I didn't get charged anything despite it costing more. That was only their second 2018 in the body shop and the first with front end damage, so I think it was kind of their experiment. They do great work so I didn't have a problem waiting on it.

It's nice having a body shop you like, and will do some small mods like that. I think I'm very lucky, I've got two of them, and a private mechanic that I can get some quality work done at a good price.
Did your front end get knocked out?

Looks good! At that camera angle you can sure tell that most, if not all of the rake is gone.

For sure. If you find a good tech, keep them on your good side. I forgot to ask about the alignment to be honest. I don't notice any pulling, but I'll see if they can check it once I go back to get that final bumper piece put on.

IDK if Ford would do that since it would take $ out of their pockets. Also, I can't say I would like it because then mine wouldn't be different than any other one on the road. You are right tho, it is sweet looking.
