As some of you might know...I have a 2003 X, and would like to put a newer grill on it..... What are my options? I hear like the 2005 grills wont be a bolt on fit
You can run the 05 grill, but you either have to change your bumper or cut aprox 1.5 inches off the bottom edge of it. I'm doing the same thing right now, but I ordered a 05 bumper setup and the 05 grill. The only reason I did the bumper also is because I hit a pitbull a couple weeks ago and messed up my bumper, other wise I would just do the 05 grill and trim the 1.5 inches off it. There is a write up on the site about doing the full 05 front conversion. I'm doing some aftermarket headlights that look like the 05 lights, so i'm not going to swap out my header panel or have to trim my header panel to fit the 05 lights. I love the looks of the 05 front, probably because I use to have an 05 f250 with the 6.0.
