Billet Grille - 6-bar style grille

[O'Rattlecan]

I'm having a hard time finding a billet grille for the FX4 style grille on the 2005.

I don't want a mesh or anything. I want a billet bar style contraption for this grille.

I have yet to see a quality billet for the FX4. IMO, you could always just go with a full billet and ditch the FX4 grille.

I love the bars - I'll never go for the open honeycomb style... I'd just leave it as is before I did that.

Ew... blacked out stuff.

Usually you and I have have the same idea towards blacking stuff out, but I do like those headlights...is that still eww?


That being said...dunno about quality, but googling 2005 F150 billet grilles pulled up lots of stuff. A couple of the top:

Edit...realize you just said you wanted something specifically for the FX4 grille...since I dunno what or if there are any differences, you may just wanna ignore me and continue on with your day...haha.

I'm a chrome guy. I'm trying to go the other way with it. I realize it's not a chrome style package, but I wanted a little stainless in the grille (rather than just ordering the bar style chrome grille) and put on some chrome nerf bars to brighten it up a little, not darken it. I just can't get into black.

Get a grill from a Lincoln Mark LT!!!

I'm a Lincoln fanatic, but it wouldn't match the badge on the tailgate.... I'd drive an LS daily if I had the coin to operate a handful of vehicles at once.

that's the way I would go. It's your truck though so do what makes you happy. I haven't seen a billet grille that I've liked yet. I actually just sold my old grille to a guy that wanted to get rid of the billet grille on his truck.

I have some places advertising that they have them for sale but none with pictures to actually confirm what I'm paying for...

+1 that was a good response to what chris said.

 

[O'Rattlecan]

we'll see if they even hold up. Even if they don't, I think it'll look good on this particular truck.

Much better... I like it even though I know a certain number of people there wouldn't touch a billet grille with a 10 foot pole.
