Aftermarket support. Grill ideas.

[Stressed_Era]

The only way a vehicle gets aftermarket support is if the vehicle sells, so hopefully the Maverick is a hit. The one area that I'm disappointed with from a design standpoint is the front end. I just don't like the headlights or the grill.

I would love to see someone come out with a bronco style grille and headlight to fit into that space.

It is growing on me, I am neutral at this point. Perhaps if the headlights weren't as tall height wise. No doubt somebody will have add-ons for this lil truck soon.

I'm already picturing Mavericks with raptor style grills with amber clearance lamps

The only thing I'm planning on doing initially is adding an OEM '71-'74 Maverick Grabber grille emblem, chrome with orange background, to the lower, driver-side grille area. Found a NOS one on ebay. Will figure out how to attach it when the truck arrives!

I am curious if the center horizontal grill line would look good painted to match the body color (velocity blue). I noticed a slight color change among the 3 different trim levels.

Would love to see how it'd look with a cactus grey bar across the front! I wonder if a paint shop could custom paint it for not too much?

I'm also curious if the bar can be separated from the grill itself, like if I could get the lariat trim Mesh, and keep the XL black bar, or if everything comes molded and glued as one? @kingranchero any ideas?

I was trying to imagine it but I don't know if I have the right sort of emblem-

Ford emblem is kinda small compared to grille

The grill bar is molded in as one piece with the grill on XL. XLT and Lariat are separate pieces.
