My friend just swaped his 04 grill to a 07 style bolt in grill off of Ebay. Total shipped was $350. Perfect fit straight bolt in. Here are the pics.

after

 

Oh man that looks awesome!!!!! I MUST do that to my truck now. I have always thought the 05+ looked better than the previous trucks. Now if I could just figure out how to get the radio and climate control of the 05+ Lariat trucks in my 01 truck and on my steering wheel.....

 

totally different truck, looks very sharp!

 

Now all it needs is cab lights. We plan on installing them on both of our trucks soon.

 

thats the same thing i need too

 

Yeah, that's a nice easy swap.

Mine's an '03, but look at the grill.

all look great, i did the same thing, also added 05-07 headlights and a 04 harley bumper valance

i dont see many using the harley valance but it is one of the nicer 99-04 up grades in my mind

 

What exactly does the Harley valance look like?? this sounds interesting!!!

 

Where are you getting the newer grills at?

 

Go on eBay and do a search for a seller / vendor named:

Thanks I wonder if they make them with the billett inserts? I will check

 

Well they do offer them with the billett as well, I thought that they were a direct bolt on replacement, which they are but have been modified to fit, looks real good it is on my list to get. For those who bought them was it a simple bolt on with no gaps on either side?

 

Yeah, it's a direct replacement, two screws total, took about 10 minutes. They machine the lip off the bottom so it fits our models. No gaps.

Very sweet I just left a message with the guy, they look nice. 399.00 for the one with the billett
