Lower grille insert

[Ranger's My Middle Name]

Interested in seeing this on. I'd imagine that it would prevent access from the block heater though, no??

Well. Got home and opened the box from Stage3. They also sent me wrong grille insert. I ordered for ACC and received the one for without. I’ll be contacting them tomorrow and hopefully they can ship me the right one ASAP.

Stage3 got back to me. They had the part numbers reversed for the regular insert and the one with ACC. They are sending me the correct one - for ACC and I should have it next week.

Looks like Putco offers this in Stainless steel or Black powder coat for CCM vehicles, but only offers the one part 86164 number, and doesn’t let you choose option.

Take a look at https://www.putco.com/bumper-grille-inserts-hex-style instead. You have to pick with/without ACC and then color. Part# and stock status is in the upper right.

Did you buy one of these? It looks like those bottom tabs can be used for a 20in LED bar.....

Just wondering if this is so, or if they are used fir mounting

Here is what I have, but not installed since wrong one. The lower silver piece on Ranger under the opening is removed for install.

What do you mean "lower silver piece" ?

also - is that putco text on bottom right just a sticker or is that painted on the insert?

I'm noticing you really hate manufacturers advertising on their product

You sir are correct. With a passion.

Silver piece is below lower opening.
the black trim around hole comes off with it. Putco piece fits over hole from backside. Was looking at install last night and the logo looks like it faces the engine, odd as that is. Also being low on piece and recessed in, might not see even if facing front.

Putco is not a sticker.

Looks like a decal; it's crooked.

Thanks for posting this. Looks like I should pick up a trim removal tool.

If a decal it is on there better than most. only looks crooked because the piece has a slight curve, smiley face look. Looking head on at the piece the logo is level. I still think it will not be facing out when installed which is odd they put the logo on wrong side.
