[neotexano]

Looking for a raptor style grille for my 2015 Expedition LE, any recommendation?

Check kintop motor, just bought one last week for my 07 expedition and will be receiving it tomorrow. Might have something you like.

@neotexano there are none to fit a 15. You’ll have to fabricate your own

Yeah, I was looking for something to just swap the original and I haven't been able to find out one. I was afraid I had to do some modifications for one and you are just confirming that. There are some for the 07-14 and 18-22 but, nothing for the 15-17.

Here’s what I had. Cost me like $30 and an hour of my time. Couple people have done it since I did few years back

I like it! Was Going to the outside corners of grille, where 3/4 or inch of available plastic is, now may do all I can. I have a bolt on Bullbar and going to mount a 20" light bar on it with holes it came with. I would like to see your mounting and wiring of lights?

I don’t have that truck anymore unfortunately. I traded it for a 2020 f150 but I have another 2016 I’ll show you where I ran everything
