08-09 Front end!?

Ok, let me apologize again for my wandering mind. Long deployment equals crazy Sh^t on the brain!

I like the look of the 08-09 F-350 front end. It looks "tough". Like; "If you mess with me, my truck will eat you tough". But on an Excursion....I think it would look sick! What do you guys think? How much fab work would be needed for something this crazy?

Heres a couple threads I found on it:

I guess I must be the odd one out. I like the 05' front end better.

I actually lik the 2000 front-end better than the 2008, it makes an Excursion look lik a FLEX.

I do like the fender vents and Super Duty on the Grill and tailgate of the truck but not on the Excursion. Ah what do I know I'm an old man.

I like the 05-07 way better than the new SD.

That looks amazing. Did you do it yourself? Did you have to do any extra fab work or does everything line up?

That is not mine just a picture off TimsAuto web site. It is a real 2009 not a 2000-2005 with a new front. I think it is pretty hot also but the price is out of sight. The front on the Harley addition makes the front alot nicer in my opinon. I'm not crazy about the normal 250 front either, but blacked out it is "BAD"

Do a Google search for Custom Autos by Tim and you will find that Excursion plus many more.
