Grill and/or Cover
99 XLT 4x4 SuperCab 3.0
I had been looking for an aftermarket grill and ran across this:
http://www.grille-tech.com/detail.html?prodid=103
I like the way this one looks.
But on the companies website says it will not fit a 4x4 XLT SuperCab. The pic on their website looks like it would fit. The truck in the pic must be a 4x4 at least because of the tow hooks.
Also, this is not a true grill, it is an insert, or cover if you will. It goes over the factory grill and is held in place by zip-ties. I am a little turned off by that, but I guess if it looks good, and doesn't fall off, then ok.
So the questions I have are:
Is there truly a size difference in the grill on a XLT SuperCab and a non?
Anyone had any experience with these grill "covers"?

I put in a grill shell and grill from stylinconcepts.com (check them out) in my '99. I pop revited the grill to the shell. I made the grill in the valence from a damaged billet grill and screwed it in place. I've read some posts about some putting expanded metal from Home Depot in their grills. Good luck.
