Raptor style Grill Opinions?

Maligator · Sep 25, 2017

Looking into new grills and I'm torn. Really digging the rough country grill but I'm hesitant on hacking up my OE grill. I found a raptor style grill with white leds that I think will look slick but it's an eBay item. Fit and finish concerns me with this one but I think it would look really good with white led cab lights I'm planning. Anyone bought one of these style grills and have any pros/cons, experience with em?

Added a crappy Photoshop of it on my rig

Not a bad idea but lately I've been thinking about adding led's to my sports hood.

That's where I found them originally but they had Amber lights, the white makes me like em that much more

Not something I even thought about until you posted this but damn that looks good. Now I'm wanting to add it. I'm changing my switchbacks to the white anyway so this will fit perfect.

No other options outside of the eBay offer?

Only others I saw were on Amazon but they had the ambers.

This guy has the raptor style grill and had it painted and a custom badge put on.

Well I pulled the trigger and got one of these grills. Overall opinion....not bad. Fit is about 90% to my liking there is a little extra gap around the headlights and corners of the hood. It was actually way more ridgid than I was expecting. I think I may have that outer ring color matched when I send my flares off to be painted. I think when I get my HID Low, Led fogs and clearance lights in it will all pull together nicely

I've been on the fence with getting the front bumper guard. It would block my led fogs so I keep saying no......but seeing your truck. It's a luv hate relationship with fellow ram members.

Got the Grill wired up with my new 5500k morimoto low beam kit and opt7 6k led fogs. Now I got the itch for the white/amber switchbacks

Looks good! It was between this style and the fully open version for my 14. I went With the fully open version so hopefully I will like it.

Sorry just now seeing this, it was an eBay buy. I believe they have them on Amazon as well. The link is to the one I bought. I got it from a different seller but I'm pretty sure they are essentially all the same. I've since sold mine and went back to the OEM grill but I was pretty satisfied with the fit/finish of the "rebel" grill
