I have the 19 style headlights coming So was waiting to do both at same time. I am impressed with how good the rebel style grill looks in person, even the led lights connectors look decent. I seen some smoked leds on ebay that work with grill too. Was suprised how big the grill is when not on truck, seems much bigger off truck. Area where R A M goes if I decide later not to use the letters, is great area for a led light bar.
The only thing this one is missing is the RAM letters. Not sure where to get them or how to secure them to the aftermarket grill.

M² Mods.

I seen oem R A M grill letters for sale on eBay and think Amazon, but you would need to make something to mount them. The rebel style grill R A M letters are a little smaller than oem, prob due to keep from getting sued, but I kinda like them smaller.

Mine mounted without issue. Tapped fuse and grounded at the fender. Took 30 minutes max.

The frame and honeycomb look like they're screwed together. I hope to separate them this spring and paint the surround.

I think I got the exact same one. I bought some OEM rebel letters off ebay and very poorly put them in place just to see how they look. I think it's going to look awesome. Can't wait till it's warmer so I can get them painted and installed.

The letters don't fit right with the clips that are on them, I'm hoping to be able to trim them and make them fit, otherwise I'm just going to glue them into place. My truck is a Deep Cherry Red 2500, I think I'm going to paint the surround and letters to match.

I ended up ordering this one yesterday. It will help tone down the chrome on my Laramie without looking out of place. I have no intention of attempting to fully de-chrome, so toning it down where I can. 400db9c13cc5e86199b9626a6e929396.jpg

Post pictures when you get it installed! I'm toning down my Laramie also (gave up on actually getting rid of all the chrome :)). I actually have this same grill in my eBay cart (not sure I like the amber led's though)

I will definitely post the result. My truck is my tow rig so the Amber is appropriate to me. I had the Raptor grille on both my Aluminum body F150s as well. It would be fairly easy to change them to white if you wanted too.

Haven't wired the lights yet, just installed new headlights and grill. For $127 shipped as you see it, the grill is nice and inner mesh is screwed in so can remove to easily paint rest.

You can also buy clear or smoked leds if you don't like amber, also white color output is available. I tow a lot in summer, so anything to let me be seen better is a plus, you can find this grill for under $140 all the time. Installed it last night, today hooked up the lights on grill. I was more focused on getting the headlights all good to go last night. Truck is dirty, but pics turned out good

That is awesome! They make an led kit that goes in the slots of the big horn grille.

I’m wondering if the RC 6” bars that mount in the ‘19 Big Horn grill would fit in this grill???? Very tempted to buy this and try it!

Sure there are plenty led bars that fit, the R A M screws into it . So is flat surface with mounting holes etc, would be perfect for light bar. Looking for white leds and can't find sold alone, see them on grills but not sold without buying that grill. There are clear and smoked ones all around, but amber when led is on. Anyone know where to get the white leds at, let me know.
