Decided i want to get a black billet grille for my 01 ranger, any suggestions? I'm looking for one that is not really easy to see through, i have seen some that are too open and don't look that good. Pics appreciated, thanks

 

carriage works or bust

Best quality out there..

 

are they pretty easy to install? Anyone have a picture of the grille on a ranger?

 

not a great picture but thats what his grille is

 

That looks really clean, how is the grille as far as being able to see behind it? I've seen some that are pretty much see through and i don't like that look.

 

I didn't realize I haven't taken recent pics of my truck, this is the most recent with the grill

You can't see through it all the time, any time the light shines at an angle you won't see through it

 

 

that's a mean looking truck logan kind of what im going for with the blacked out look, and i really like that color blue RangerEdge

didnt know they had palm trees in mass. Good lookin bike and truck

 

Not his truck. Its korey89's truck and bike.

 

sorry to gravedig my post but for the carriage works grille for my 01 xlt 2wd it gives me two options, stock grille shell opening closed across the top or open what exactly does this mean? And it also says these are bolt over grilles, is there any cutting or modifications required to install?


here is the link to the grille, thanks

Carriage Works Billet Grille

 

I wouldn't call it a bolt over grill. You remove the 'honeycomb' portion of the grill.

Here are the install instructions directly from Carriage Works (Black,01-03 XL & XLT closed across the top = Part #41223): Part # 41221,41222 ,41223,41231,41232,41233


Its 'closed' if it has a grill surround at the top. If there is no upper surround (like mine) it's considered 'open'.

I think this is correct for the 01-03's:

Open:



Closed:

 

Exactly what i needed to know, thank you sir!

 

carriage works FTW (yet i still love my stx grille more lol)
