I love the amber lights in the grille, looks great! Tow hooks too!

I have an Atlas Blue and was thinking of color matching the tow hooks but now you have me thinking of going with orange because I was leaning towards orange letters in the tailgate.

Was think the same. Orange tow hooks.

I purchased my Raptor Grille on eBay $220.00 https://www.ebay.com/itm/385429369205
The eBay link I share includes turn signal/white lights that install on the bottom of the grille (unlike the author of this post).

Once I familiarized myself with the following videos, it was easy-peasy (two hours by myself in the Florida summer shade). No instructions come with the product so pull up YouTube and get a notepad. Bookmark the sites for quick reference when you have all your parts laid out.

• Best instructions video:
• Best instructions written: http://testdriven.tv/2023/03/ford-maverick-raptor-style-grille-installation/
• General instructions:
• Not the best instructions:
• Use this link to properly identify the turn signal wires:

You will also need:

• shorter screws/smaller washers per the "best instructions" link.
• use SHORT screws, even shorter than recommended, for the outside most screws locations, outboard of the F and the D, (I think where the outboard wings connect) or you will dimple or worse punch through the front of the grille.
• zip ties
• electrical splice connectors

If I ever get my 2022 XLT Hybrid Area 51 back from my son I will post some pics.

Finally got this installed by my local body shop because I tried to install myself but got scared and couldn’t do it. Body shop charged me $100 to have it installed and the tow hooks powder coated in red. I absolutely love how it turned out goes well with my color theme!

Looks good, but did you lose your ABS and adaptive cruise control abilities?

Completely agree, I watched two of those videos before my install and I think anyone can do this install. It is way more about taking it slow than being skilled at car mods.

My question, and concern, would be if there would be a problem with the radar plate that comes with the co-pilot 360 and copilot 360 assist. Do you know if it's compatible with the raptor grill?

I love the grille. And the red tow hooks accentuate the look! I’d love to do that, but I have a hybrid, so no tow hooks. And, as mentioned above, I wish there was a way to add the Raptor grille to a Lariat with adaptive cruise control; but the sensor on the bottom would require cutting and fitting in a way that would make the job much more difficult…

Got the decals from Etsy for $60 for the hood, $75 for the rocker panel decals.

Price is nice.

I did mine in orange, and I did my brake calipers in orange. Cactus gray xlt fx4.. way to go

Wow!! I hope I can get someone to install it for me for a similar price. I really want it but am terrified to do it myself Lol
