I had a Dodge 3500 for a short while after my 7.3. (That was fun for while but back to Ford now and no more flirting like that I tell you.). Anyway, its grill was color matched which I didn't like so I got the work truck black grill for that one which I liked much better. Have been planning the same thing for this truck same as AMEC Electric but this here deal is starting to grow on me. Nice one.

Oh and believe it or not, I'm planning to replace the color matched door handles I have on this one with black ones as well. Too much
chrome and too much paint can get to be too much, man.

Where are you guys buying the inserts and what do they cost? P.I.T.S. how long did it take you to do the main grille?

About 45 minutes. You do have to cut out the plastic grille even though T-Rex said it was a drop in.

That's a little more reasonable. I'd like something to fill in the blank areas and maybe protect the rad some.
