I dont like chrome on the front like that, but the grill would look sweet on a painted shell..

Actually, it says on the tag that came with the grille "01-03 2/4wd Ranger Grille Shell Kit"
so it will fit both, both are same dimensions, already asked my local ford dealer and got the green flag. I can go take a pic of the tag if u want?
