Thats kinda cool. I don't think I have ever seen it before. I would rather get the Lighting valance from LMC or NPD for less than half the price of that one.

The price listed there was for the Grille.

I don't see the valance iteself for sale anywhere on the site... and when I searched for 96 F150 Front Valance on Google I got a mess of BS to dig thru..

Even tried dual light front valance... ended up with a bunch of car crap..

CWPottenger, those are for the '97-up F150s and the '97-'98 light-duty (7-lug) F250s.

That valance in the pic in the first post, I've seen those in person, every single time it was a 4-door dually F350 with all sorts of shiny chrome stuff (West Coast mirrors, 5th wheel roof wing) and tons of lights. Think it was part of the dealer-installed "Southern Edition" (or something like that) package offered on some of those trucks...

Thats the Lightning one. I have no idea why they list it for vehicles with recovery hooks. The other one is the stock one.

Does the lightning valance have those two smaller openings towards the outside that look the be the perfect size for a couple of hooks to poke though?

Yeah they had the valance like that. The middle holes are for fog lights and the outer ones are ducts that are for getting air to the brakes.

Here is a Lightning.



The idea of using them for recovery hooks probably won't work too well, because they are too far away from the frame.
