What if you only use the middle part instead of the whole thing? So you won't need a hood or nothing. Just take yours off and pop the new one in.. IDK

Do black billet or a factory Edge grill (if thats not whats on your truck now), IMO those are the nicest grills for Rangers.

Truckngolf I see you took off your running boards, do you still have them and are they for sale? I bought some aftermarket nerf bars but I like the factory style better.

Sorry for the thread hi jack.
