Awesome bumper!
Rigid makes a black grill with a light bar built in.
Shows it only goes up to 2015. Don't know if they are interchangeable or not.

Evan, I am not 100% positive, but think the 15 and 16 use the same grill.
There are few if any changes with the 2016.
Rumor is the full restyle is for 2017, including going to aluminum.

Considering these tires.
Cooper Discoverer S/T Maxx - Canadian Tire

Anyone have real world feedback on them?

The guy fabricating my custom Fuel tank/Tool box will not be done that for a while yet.

Here's a link to that rigid grill.
It has chrome bolts , but I'm sure you could probably call and special order it with black ones.

I saw those in my original search a couple weeks ago.
It somehow is just ugly to me.
I would rather get a simple black grill i think.
And just put the light bar behind it.
Partly why i like the open mesh grill design.

I bought a cheap, eBay, black billet grille and color matched the surround on my 2015. I thought for less than $100.00 it would be junk - I'm lovin' it now!

Thank you Jim.
Another good option.
Sadly none i see replace the entire thing.
So I will have to somehow paint the massive chrome frame part of the grill.
I like the idea of a mesh, but those bars would work to.

But am finding it harder to locate black grills.
So if you know what is available, please let me know here.
Thanks.
We make a packaged black mesh grille for the Super Duty.
We make an OEM style factory shell pre painted gloss black with a pre installed black mesh grille, couldn't be no easier to install, you simple remove the factory grille and install the new grille with factory hardware.




We also offer it in a black billet

Well dang it will you look at that.
Exactly what I want.
I mean exactly.
Is the mesh metal?
I like that you do the frame as well as just the center part of the grill like most.
When i am home next week I will be ordering myself a new present

For sure.
And since its the entire grill and not just a part of it the cheesy chrome film on plastic is gone to.
I see their website does not work.
So will call them oneday.
