Default Raptor grill

Well its been a few months since ive been on here...woo hoo im back!

And I have seen more than a handfull of new Raptors and cant get over how bad I want one of those grills for my 09 FX4.

Im sure im beating a dead horse here, but does anyone know of how to get ahold of one? Or if they will even fit?

Thanks guys

Isn't the hood wider on the raptor to meet the wider front fenders?

im pretty sure it isnt wider but let me double check

edit* hmm ok i thought i saw some definitive prooof of somone doing the swap but it was just that they ordered the grill and they neeed a hood too but never said if it worked after they ordered the hood

but the grill is about $1000 and hood is about $1500 fyi

And that does not include the cost of painting that hood!!

For all that extra money, you might as well have bought a 'real' one; that is, if the parts will, in fact, easily bolt right up to replace the stock hood/grill components on a standard F150?

It appears the jury is still out on that one, based on comments on another similar F150 website.
