I think ebay has them. 09-12 grill in that design/style.

They will not fit. The front grilles changed in 2013.

Just curious, would the 2019 grilles fit on the 2018 then? I have an express and down the road might want to fit a sports or painted 2019 grille.

The grilles (and entire body for that matter) are completely different on the 2019 models (with the exception of the “legacy” model that I’ve heard about).

Seems like you have to change out the bumper as well as the grille. The bottom edges of the 13+ turn up whereas the 09-12 are flat.

If you're not going for something like a Rebel grill, why change it out? There are lots of aftermarket grilles out there for the 09-12.

ok so after seeing a few things online this morning, it looks like a stock rebel grille will go right on a 09-12 ram with no modifications unless the actual mounting is different. Since there is no angle on the bottom corners of the grilles on the 09-12's im thinking the thing will snap right on. Can anyone confirm or deny this?
