Howdy and welcome to R-F! Yes the 01-03 Edge hood will fit w/ no problems, the whole grille piece (grille and it's surround) should bolt right up as well.

Are you talking about something like this?

If you go with the black strip on the back, personally I'd do a matte shade of black to make it look official and then nightshade the tails to enhance the "blackout" affect . Also the same matte finish on the hood and grille. Vinyls would probably be the way to go.
