Ok, so I want to put a billet grill on my truck, but im not sure about something. On my truck the grill is the cheap plastic one piece grill and all I can find are billet grill inserts. So I think I have to find the outer piece to it (white so it will match my truck).

Here is my grill


And this is what I want it to look like.



And this is pretty much the billet grill

So is that Item the only one I need? Or where could I find the outer piece?

Thanks

 

I have a 04-05 2wd grill that the center piece can be taken out and add the billet grill you want. Only thing you need to paint the surround white like you want.

 

You could get one like this:

 

that 2nd pic of that white truck, looks like the owner cut out the center of the 06-07 sport grill, hence the 4 tips that were left behind after...

 

but that 2nd pic is the grill from ebay...

 

It would only work on a sport grill like KLC has. The 4 tips on the grill are the mounting points for the 06+ Sport Grill insert from factory.

 

I couldnt find any sport grills online, but S-10 Killer told me I should hit up a junkyard and look for one, so i think ill just do that.

 

I'm having the same issue. I talked to the "customizer" guy at the T-rex Billet Grille company. For an 08 you'll have to buy the 21bar billet grill. And then cut out the middle bars. I'm going to cut mine up tomorrow.

 

I'd say look for an 04 ranger grill at a JY, gotta be some that were rear ended...

 

according to the guy ay Trex, where I have the yellow marks, you cut the grill. and then the red marks are where you rivet.

 

aww, i dont want to cut anything, ill mess up , let me know how yours goes

 

Dude... No. run away from the thought. I've been working on it since 2pm and it's now 9pm. I'm losing the war.

 

I have the same grille in vista blue I am willing to sell. Just let me know if you need another one.

 

I'm going to try a little longer tomorrow. But if that doesn't pan out, I might take you up on that grill. How much?

 

I have my 04 grille that I'll be getting rid of in 5 days when my new one gets here. Its unpainted black so its ready to be painted. You guys can have it for cheap if you want it.

 

^^^ I have the same thing just sitting around in a box ready to be shipped!

 

throw out some prices. i'm going to try again after work.

 

Well the the billet part is pretty. And my old grill is cut all to h&ll. Measured it all pretty like and made the cuts with my dremel. Go to rivet the billet in... and it doesn't fit. The jacka$$es at Trex sent the wrong grille after they said it would fit. So they're sending me a the right billet grill and reimbursing me for a new blue grill. so much fun

 

sorry to jack the thread,....but whats the differents between the '04 to '09 grills

 

The 04-05 is like a 2 piece one. The center were the emblem is at can be removed. The 06+ are all one piece. Here are some pics to compare between the two:

04-05





06+

 

so my grill comes apart at the yellow line on this pic?

 

Yes Sir! Just some clips holding it in on the back side of the grill.

 

kewl, thanks man!!! i though i was gonna have to cut that ***** up. the only thing i can find are inserts and thought i was gonna have to modify something from an older ranger

 

can you tell me if this would on an '04 its from an 2000

 

Dude don't need to modify from an older ranger!
