I tried to order one from the Ford Dealer in Charlotte, NC and they told me not to put anything in that hole.It was left there for a reason and if the engineers thought it needed any protection, they would have put a grill there. Don't shoot the messenger, thats just what i was told.
The guy at the parts counter clearly isn't familiar with the part that Ford stocks. It's still a huge hole but with two bars in the middle and it simply dresses up the unfinished look of the EB bumper.

So riddle me this...why would Ford put this on the 2014s from the factory, but the parts guy said not to put anything there?
Ford made it, it's staying in that hole!!
When I ordered mine the parts guy was clueless as to what it was. I walked him out the 2014s he had on the lot and I pointed. He agreed that it looked better and would gladly have it installed.
Agreed.
They look outstanding, but over one Ben Frank is just outrageous. I love the look of the one made to match the Platinum grille, but I cannot justify the cost especially since they aren't hard mounted...they just snap in place. No screws, no christmas tree plugs.
