First accident - f bumper replacement
Sad day - on my way home from a job - few car accident, I rear ended another f150. ah, the depression is setting in - my truck is damaged.
question: chrome bumper is done for, will grab another but is there any shock absorbers in the front bumper that require replacing?
need a new grill as well...

I like the 05 grille, will it fit correctly on my 03?
I've only seen 2 tone bumpers on 05's - i'd like to stick to all chrome...

Thanks guys for your help and concern - I guess I have to look at it as being able to spice up my truck...give it some new life.

I'm not a fan of chrome but I vote to stick with the older/original style grille & bumper. Your truck, your choice though. If you do go to the '05 setup, then you could "fully commit" and get the '05 header panel & headlights. I cut my header panel instead to fit '05 headlights.

Header panel can be modified to work but a 05-07 will give a much cleaner install if your changing everthing else
