Hi everyone, I have had my new 07 black LT for two weeks now. Traded in an 04 F150. Needless to say, the gas pump and I are not as friendly as we were in the past. I have been checking out the site and it is fantastic! Tons of info on anything. First thing I want to do is get a lower grill for the front that matches the upper one. Anyone lead me to one?

At this time there is no lower grill made that matches the OEM grill. A few have made one from an upper grill with mixed results.

Thanks for the info GDZHHR, do you know what exactly the mixed results were - appearance or installation? I have seen other styles of matching upper/lower grilles, but I like the looks of the stock upper. My other idea is to get some steel wire mesh and fit it to size and powdercoat it black to match the paint. Any other ideas/suggestions out there? Thanks.

Both. Looked....well, just not quite right. I tried to make one myself. It's difficult to cut the top grill to fit the opening of the bottem grill.
