'05-'07 FRONT bumper swap?
-Considering swapping to the '05-'07 Front bumper on my '99
-I have the cut-down '05-'07 grille that I will need to replace with an uncut one I know.
-What else do I need to get besides the actual bumper itself to do the swap?
-Is the painted area part vinyl or metal?
-When all said and done will the new, uncut grille attach to something at the bottom that I have swapped on?
-When I'm done I'll have my 99.5% perfect chrome bumper for sale as well as the Xenon air dam.....and will post in the classifieds.

I HAVE heard of them....when they first started cutting the grilles down they IMPLIED they were FACTORY OEM FORD grilles which wasn't the fact at all.
I bought MY grille from a member here and quickly realized that IT (Purchased originally from MKM) was NOT OEM FORD.
I strongly believe I can buy a '07 grille NEW (aftermarket) and buy a good used bumper and all essencials for far cheaper than MKM sells their "kit" for.
Anyone have first hand experience with the '05-'07 front bumper swap??
