Default King Ranch Lower Grille

I've seen all those lower grilles in billet or 6-bar, is there one available for those of us that have a KR and want the same styling cues from our grille?

I'd love to have one, I just can't find one online on my own.

haven't seen them on the EcoBoost at all, the lower bumper intake needs to stay clear for the CAC. If you have the EB, I would advise NOT doing this.

You may not have seen it, but I have and plenty of people on the forum have bought these. I understand that as much air as possible needs to get to the CAC, having 3 bars will not negatively affect the airflow.

Does anyone have an answer to the original question?

I went to my local auto aftermarket store for customizing trucks. Most of what I saw was billet, nothing to match the grill pattern. I did see one guy on here bought a black matted metal diamond pattern, I thought would look great and provide good air flow. I just want something to keep rocks,birds,trash bags and such from flying in an damaging the CAC. If Ford was gonna design this darn hole and say don't cover it then FORD should be offering a lifetime warranty on the CAC for damages/defects from road debris. I lost the link to the site that offered this grill, I hope somebody could chime in and post, I think it was like $99 for it..Looked easy to install/remove too.

I know someone here has purchased these from an eBay seller or some forum vendor or something. Who was that? Perhaps I could get them to demo this new style on my truck.
