2005 grill

Does anyone know if the 2005 grill will fit in a 2003? Looks like it should but I dont know anyone who has tried it yet. Considering either the new HD version grill or the regular, I like them both. Thanks

The grilles are not interchangable, and I got that from Ford engineering. Same for the bumper. You'd have to change out most of the front end, and then modify the ends of the frame rails to get everything to fit. Not worth it, in my opinion, especially with all the fine after-market grilles available that do switch-out easily.

My buddy clint is doing this right now.

He swapped headlights, which involved some fabrication but worked.

But when swapping the grill he was forced to swap the bumper too. Should look pretty sweet when it's all done. But he is an experienced frabricator and even he said it's turning out to be quite he ordeal to swap over.
