My Amazon grill arrived today. Took about 4 or 5 days shipping time. The lights shipped separately. For the price, I think it’s an amazing deal. Has a very sturdy OEM feel and includes all hardware. The center mesh can be removed so that gave me the idea to paint the surround magnetic to match my truck. The red accents fit tight and are removable. Mine will be painted orange to match my other accents. The LED amber lights come smoked and fit perfectly. In the picture they have protective film on the lenses.

Here is the link and pictures below

That's interesting. The Raptor grill (after market ones), the radiator grid sits behind the nostril slants, so there is no cutouts for the nostrils to have to fit. I followed Sid's build and am finishing up mine, but wound up using a gasket rubber to form fit the nostrils (instead of the method used by Sid and various other things I tried).

I'll post it's glamour shot soon ...:giggle:

I had my doubts being that it’s from Amazon but it’s very sturdy and feels like OEM quality. It does not have that cheap plastic feel at all.

Does this redirect the air?
No, just lays along the edge like yours does, keeps same design as manufactured, excpt it doesn't need to fit through grill work. Grill is from ebay seller, same one the Sid used...good quality (to me).

Mine is just a piece of vinyl...making the template is a PIA and it doesn't have any thickness...appears as if it were painted...

I do like this grill and the price is right...curious about how well it fits...I see the inserts are a bit loose...maybe tweaking with a heat gun can fix this?

If I do get this grill, I'd still go with same amber I have now rather the included flush mount which is nice but too large for my taste...I'd insert the dual 8" DRL into the two lower slots as I currently have...

Yeah, that's where I started and wound up at 1/8" rubber to work with, Went through silicon rubber, but trying to get it to adhere to the grill and not make a huge mess was a mess?

My red accent pieces fit tight.
