SD for Ex Grille Swap

Any of you Super Duty folks want to swap grilles for an Excursion grille? I own an '00 Ex with 14,000 wife driven miles. No problems with grille, I just don't like the look. I could take pics if you want.

I'm in Crystal Lake, IL, about 1hr NW of Chicago.
IIRC the last time I pulled the grille off it is one piece just like the SD grille. I'll check again. FWIW new the Ex grille is $210 vs the SD grille at $177.

Not to butt in but...

If you decide you don't want to trade through the mail and would be willing to meet around say Indianapolis or Nashville IN, I could meet you there and do a swap. We'll just make a day trip of it and tour the town. I'm from the Mason, Ohio area. I thought I had someone interested in Jacksonville, but have'nt heard from him lately.

Just let me know. I can send pics of the SD grill.

I'm a little leery of trading thru the mail. Most of my fear is with shipping (damage, packing and cost). I think abendx has first dibs if I go thru with it.
I doubt I'd drive that far to swap. It would cost too much in food, time and gas

BTW I have some good pics of the Ex grille and how the panels clip together.

If it does not have any major scratches in the plastic chrome, I would be interested, I have a grille off my 99 SD with about 5,000 miles on it. Pending no ice storms or snow storms or mechanical breakdowns with my Caddy. I will be in Des Plaines Feb. 9th at the Donald E Stephens Convention Center. (International Motorcycle Show )

Too bad for me. I have an '00 SD that I would love to swap grilles with you. However, I have a Sterling "S" oval over the Big Blue on my grille and it won't come off. I don't think you want the Sterling logo on your Exc. and I want to keep the logo for my SD. Damn!
