I don,t know if they are or not,mine came with the truck when I bought it ,it is the same shape as the grill black vinyl with the ford emblem on it and tell you the Truth it stops a lot of the road salt and grime from getting into the rad and possibly the intake,it,s always filthy so I can see how much crap it is stopping

I would put in some anti-gel. I had mine jell at about 12* one morning. I think the big problem is the winter blend fuel. I don't think the fuel we get here is much of a winter blend for the 2-3 days of winter we have. In Mi. and Pa they likely have an honest winter blend. Now the question is what kind of winter blend does Nashville have?
