Run a search this is an aftermarket product and can be found on lots of websites. As far as install you will most likely have to make your own brackets for it.

I think what he is looking for is the bumper not the valence, and if that is the case, aftermarket or not, he shouldn't have to make his own brackets as it would be for the ford anyway. Correct me if I'm wrong Fordster, your valence looks the same as on the grey truck, so it's the bumper you want right? You would probably be able to get that from a Ford parts department. One place you can try is www.Tascaparts.com

Edit: just looked on their website and they're listing that bumper paint to match at $311 plus shipping, which really doesn't sound to expensive to me, but you'll probably pay through the nose for shipping

As for the tools you'll need, a compressor, 1/2" drive air impact and impact sockets for sure and probably a can of PB to soak the old bolts and nuts to get your bumper off the truck

The way it reads he wants the lower valance for the front bumper.

They are hard to find and I have found them before and they did need there own brackets as Ford did not design the truck with this in mind.

I suggest using an FTE supporting vendor like Tousley Ford Parts Tousley Ford Parts Depot before going somewhere else.

Okay I got ya. That's actually a factory part that's bolted onto the bumper with I think 9/32 or 7mm bolts, there aren't any brackets for that valence, that's whats on my truck and that rolled off the assembly line that way. I didn't realize some trucks didn't come with that valence, I was thinking he was looking for a bumper with the fogs in it since he doesn't have that

I guess if you don't have that lower valence, the bumper isn't pre-drilled already to except it?

I just checked,www.Tascaparts.com has got them and depending on whether you have a 2 or 4wd there's a $12 difference in price, the 4wd model being the the lower price starting at $90 and some change. I don't see where there would be a difference in the two, how would the drive system effect a bumper for pete's sake?

I have never seen any trucks come from the factory with the lower valance grille? The part below the bumper yes but the opening in the front of the bumper at the top does not have a factory grille to cover it that is only aftermarket.

That lower valence part of that bumper comes from the factory. It is usually on upper end lariats and FX4s. My truck has it, but I have the rectangle foglights instead of the round ones.

Ooooookay, what are we talking about here fellers? Valences or grills? I didn't see any where that a grill or grills were mentioned in his query. If he's looking for a valence, there are only 2 in that photo, the one above the bumper and the one below the bumper the surrounds the tow hooks (or hold down hooks, whatever you want to call them), both of which can be had at TascaParts.com. If he's looking for a grill to fill the small rectangular opening in his bumper, than that's a completely different beast and yes that would be an aftermarket item in most cases, at which there are alot of sites to choose from in getting one. Let me see if I can't link to the diagram of the front bumper and hardware for it and clerify (I know, I can't spell) all of this. Problem I have is, I still don't know how to link from another site to this one.

U hook valence? I'm sorry FordSter, I'm not trying to be smart with you, I just want to make sure we are talking about the same thing and to try and steer you in the right direction. You are talking about the valence that surrounds the 2 tow hooks below the bumper, right? If so, I'm surprised you don't already have that on your ride, unless it got tore off or something. It's really hard to tell from the pic of your truck cause it's dark or black below your bumper, it almost looks like that valence is on your truck.
