Doesn't look too bad IMO, its definitely a good looking grill. I really don't mind the FX4 grills though so not sure if it is worth the price.

Poser.

If he is going to spend the money on an F-150, then spend more money on the parts to make it look like a Raptor, why not bite the bullet and get a Raptor in the first place?
Makes no sense to me. :shitsweak:

Well i bought a raptor after having an 08 F-150 Lariat in the past, I just didnt like it because it looked like every other truck on the road, the Raptor looks like no other truck on the road!! i guess i could have just done this to my truck and been good to go!! lol

I think it doesnt look bad but it sure doesnt look good, if i were that guy i would have kept the stock hood and grill and just lifted it and put bigger tires on it. A Raptor is a Raptor there are no look alikes that will ever match it. 6.2 vs. 5.4 or maybe even a 4.6? I think we all know who would come out on top!

Just a hood and grill swap. I dont see anything wrong with it. He's not posing. Just dressing up his F150 with slicker body parts.

The grill doesnt really work with that front bumper, but I like the idea of the vented hood on a stock truck. Not tacky and ads a little aggressiveness

Mustang guys do it all the time. I'm about to put a Saleen hood, Roush fascia and GT500 skirts on mine, it's not that I'm trying to copy or pose, just dress it up with parts I like in places I like.

Because he wanted an EcoBoost...just a thought. Notice the lack of lower grill in the front bumper
