I was lucky enough to get the new prototype from Rangergrille.com. It looks to be the same grille, but it already has the lights attached. I also snagged some of their orange letters. I must say that this is a very high quality product and it fits perfectly.

I don't post many pictures, mostly when asked. I think I'm done with upgrades, but who knows. It's the Lariat package and I'm happy with pretty much everything now. Normal driving to easy off road use.... for now.
Here's what I've done, in no particular order...

Huskey contour floor mats
LED puddle lights
Rhino liner
Tonneau cover
Whole in dash tray for phone charger, but would like to change back. (any takers for swap? Phone gets too hot in sun for me)
Bora 1.25" wheel spacers
Rangerlift leveling kit
Rangergrille.com white outlined Raptor style grille
Painted resonator to tail pipe matte black
Armrest/console tray
Ford molded mud guards
N-fab steps (running boards)

Wife hasn't seen grille yet, she may veto that, if so, up for sale. I love it though. Platinum White truck with Oxford? white letters.

If My wife would object she would end up here!

As far as install videos, I believe post 1 has it. There is another one buried deep in the 41 pages of this thread, basically the same info, done a slightly different way. I tried to find, but lost interest after several pages.

If I did add lights, I think I would go with white, since you have a Saber color, the amber look great on yours.

My wife objects to very little, and her name is on the truck... Now if I said flames on the truck, that would be denied instantly.

how did you get the letters outlined like that? id love to see what it would look like on my ingot silver with ingot silver outlines...
I got mine from Rangergrille.com They are white background with snap in black plastic inserts. Nice company to do business with. The letters have been hot, so they might be out of stock. I would suggest going in daily to get best chance at ordering when they do come in.
Edit, I don't think they do silver, but you could look.

Just ordered my grill and the lights and mount from RangerGrills.com. They said the lights have an OEM plug, what does it plug into? TIA

Just thread it down thru your fender & it connects into to the sidelight Plug....Look at the Video at Stage 3 Motorsports....It will show You Exactly How to Install. Good Luck!

The grille I bought came with the letters. Everything was in a matte black paint. I did the whole grille in gloss black to match the truck. I painted the letters a gloss red, then after they dried I taped off the red and painted the surfaces black. It wasn't hard.
could you link the paints you used please?!

Anyone see that the grille doesn’t click in on the bottom? At least I can’t see it like I could the original stock grille.

On the Original Factory Grille there are Five Clips....On the Raptor only Three. Bottom there click in & you probably didn't notice it.....If it is tight don't worry! Looks Great!

Ok great! I just noticed that, and it is tight. Bottom kicks out just a little bit but I’m sure only me and my perfectionist tendencies notice it!

Here is my 2019.5 with a new Raptor grill. Wish I knew about this thread before, I installed it. What a pain to remove the factory grill! Those &$@#%€ tabs!!
P.S. No relation to “Connecticut Joe”, but hoping he sells more products, which I will not have to pay shipping on.
P.S.S. This is a comic version of the pic, contact me and I’ll give you instructions on the hack.

Late to the party, but I finally got it done. I painted the grill and the letters gloss black then put metallic blue vinyl lettering on top. The lights were sprayed with a few coats of smoke Plastidip before I attached them so that the orange wouldn't stand out too much during the day.
