05-05 chrome grill

I've got an '06 XL CC LB PSD truck that's Arizona Beige. I want to put the chrome grill that's on the XLT (not the billet grill thats on the chrome package truck). I'm looking at ordering from www.trademotion.com online and they have grills listed as:chrome; chrome/beige; chrome/platinum; platinum. Does anyone know which one I need and are there any other parts I need?

Thanks,
Hank.

I did the same thing with my XL. Chrome beige if I am not mistaken is the King Ranch grille with the beige on the sides of the chrome bars. I got the chrome platinum which is the standard XLT grille, being my truck is True Blue.The King Ranch might be good for you though considering your truck color. No you do not need anything else it is very simple to install. What are you paying, mine was less than $200.00 with shipping from Direct Ford Parts on the left under sponsers.

Thanks Swanee
I was looking at Direct Ford Parts as well (www.trademotion.com)...It looks like $170+shipping.
Would you happen to know where I could find some pics of the difference between chrome/beige and chrome/platinum?

Thanks,
Hank.

If you're not completely dedicated to the chrome, have you considered painting the XL grille to match your truck? That's what I did:
