The one i was talking about was this one. Make a few adjustments like cutting out more and adding mesh screen behind it.

This is just a grill I saw on eBay for the pre-2009 trucks. It does raise a question about the intellectual rights of building a grill that says FORD in it.

If the OP is looking to build an adaptor kit for the OEM grill, you'll still need to shell out almost $600 for the grill, plus the two support brakets. You'll need to come up with your own wiring harness as well if you want the 3 running lights to function...
