Hey folks, I've been looking around aftermarket sites and I was hoping to find what looks like a factory grill but with no Ford logo. I assume this doesn't exist, but wanted to ask y'all =).

Doesn’t exist unless you build it…which has been done and looks terrible IMHO. IMG_0547.jpeg

Yah that looks pretty bad. If you want to delete the ST badge you could buy a ST-Line Grille, which makes everything look cleaner, but the grille doesnt looknas Good as ours.

I took the badge off and put a matte black vinyl inlay in its place since it has that weird spot in the grille. Made it kind of a ghost emblem and only cost a few bucks. IMG_8537.jpeg

Thank you for the responses! That looks worse than I imagined. Hm.

I like your ST delete!

Ooh that looks good. I always forget how good that front splitter looks too.

I did not use specific holders. Just lots of stainless nuts and bolts and washers like [mention]UNBROKEN [/mention] Can’t see it coming off at any attainable speed.

Just install it right with fender washers on both sides and bolts and it won’t go anywhere. Mine is still there after countless 150+ runs. IMG_8534.jpeg

You have a front camera to help with that. Just saying. And sorry that you crunched the parking curb.

I do not. Drinking was involved. Fortunately just a 1” scuff that I should be able to make look much better.

No front camera, well that sucks. I really like my cameras for parking in the garage, and avoiding curbs.
