From what I have read intake height is not the major factor on raptor wading depth, it was the fact there is a breather on the top of the trans that would also need some form of snorkel.

We're open to ideas but we'd need your fender flares for fitment design and testing. It happens we just set up our NJ warehouse 6 months ago!

I suspect people will be interested in your ideas but I don't think there'll be many takers.
The "FORD" grill on the Raptor is iconic and to many replacing it with an aftermarket unit would be blasphemy.
Now if you made a grill that said "RAPTOR" that looked like the OEM grill...that might be interesting
I completely agree..the FORD is iconic but I also completely agree that "Raptor" would be pretty cool. We've already designed on and I'll put it up here later today.

Thank you all for the great replies. Producing such a large product, from the manufacturing perspective, is a huge investment. This is why we're active here...to figure out what owners really want and are willing to buy.
Keep the ideas coming! We'll figure something out eventually.
The grill idea is something we want to consider. We're launching an entire grill series actually. Any thoughts on including fog lights or led lights into the front grill?

Here are a few designs we want to consider. Thoughts?
We're open to other ideas as well. We've received some interest in getting integrated fog lights or LED lights.

Yes, this is what I'm interested in. Just dont have the price stupid high if there is 20+ people willing to place an order if you can work with the price

I know that each person has their opinion on the forums and everyone has specific taste and an "idea" of what they want out of their raptor.
But...this is exactly how i feel. The front end and grill are the icon of the truck, when it is coming down the road you can make out the shape & lines for miles. Recently a friend of mine, changed his grill with an aftermarket one. I absolutely hate it and hate that he ruined the look of his raptor. I was going to post a photo here saying how ridiculous it looked, but I know that others have a similar grill and they like it.
That being said, if you want to mod or change your grill...go ahead. Its your truck and you can do anything you want to it.
But I think, it needs to be left alone!!!!
and like i said, it is...just my opinion 
Im not trying to be a hater or a bitch

Think functional if you want people to dump their iconic grill.
Many owners install led bars behind the grill. They are very easy to install with little to no mods to the truck. A 30" fits above the FORD, and a 40" below the FORD. The down side is light blockage from the OEM grill.
Flares and a reroute of the stock air intake tube would be good. It current takes in air above the wheel well that is constantly getting wet. That is where all the "snorkel" comments are coming from.
Larger fender flares would be popular. Bushwacker has already started on this forum they were NOT going to make any for the raptor.
Good luck.
