Default Raptor Grille on Lariat

Just put this on my truck.
Installation takes about an hour for removal of old and install of new.

I kind of like it, but I think I have to paint my headlight housing to black and also the lower grille.

What do you guys think?

Here are some pics of before and after. Enjoy!

Saw one in person the other day. Not a fan.
It should say FORD to be considered a Raptor grill.

I think you should of kept the original grill. If it actually said ford then I would like it but I just laugh every time I see an "OOOO" Going down the road. If you keep this grill I agree you need to lose some chrome to make it work better

Thank you! You have good taste!

I think it makes the truck looks husky. Thanks again.

There are some diy mods out there where people just got the letters cut and mounted them FYI. Seen the letters be sold for under $100.
