I just found this one on Google Images.

Looks to be pretty good quality and awesome price. Might have to check into this one a bit more.

Mike, that is an awesome setup. Definitely one of the best I have come across. What are the LED strips above the tow hooks?

Not my truck. Just a pic of the grille setup I found on the net. Lights? Maybe a strobe kit?

Anyone have a pic of the Smittybilt 615831 grille installed on a 2011+ F250/350? Not a bad looking grille and less than $300 is awesome.

I'm guessing that could be painted any color?
If I changed mine, that's what I would go with.
Awww, thanks! I like it too. I think that black one is cool, but kinda looks like venetian blinds. Might be fun if they opened and closed!

Checked this website that mbovinet posted:

BLACK MARKET Style Custom Grille Insert : American Truck N Auto Accessories, Where Quality is Our Motto

If you click on the drop-down arrow where it says "Please select", the prices are listed there next to each model. Quite a range based on the finish.

I decided to go with a mesh grille. Should be here middle of next week. I'll post pics once installed. I plan to get a center emblem for it as well. Similar to what Royalty Core offers, just not so overpriced.

I got one of these for 1 of my trucks. Does a good job of keeping the bugs and rocks off the grill.
