So I was looking and DR3Z-8200-BD might just be the stock GT grille. I can't find any images of it, and I suppose I could go check my stock GT grille in the garage if that is the correct PN, but either way.... it's not anything special here.

I removed the grille, then cut within 1/4" of the edge all the way around with a 4.5" cutoff wheel on a grinder. then used a diegrinder and got it close to the edge, then spent a couple hours with a file to smooth it out, but then the back edge had a stepped pattern that alternated with the honeycomb, and it was not deep enough. It didnt look good. So I took a piece of of kydex like material that I was able to heat form and molded a new insert to fit into the lower grille surround to extend it 3" Now I am OK with it.

This is all I have found on DR3Z-8200-BD. Its is listed in various places, but only this site had a description. Only reason I'm interested is because I would prefer silver grille or dark stainless or black. Of course I'm not sure how dard a "Dark Stainless" is , but assumed dark gray, maybe like Brembo Wheels.

Just received my FORD lower fog light kit, to my door for $127 from Tousley Ford. Its complete, only diffrence with Starkey is that the wire harness comes unterminated on one end. Not an issue for me and well worth the cost savings.

He built it from the stock grille. Pretty badass.

Looks like machine gun mounts! "So, Mr. Bond, we meet again...." I like it, Roller. Danielle is right on the money.

I guess I should have posted here instead of starting a new thread, MY BAD, but does anyone know if any of these grilles (other than the AM one) allows us to keep the foglights behind the grille?? The AM grille has been on backorder for over 3 months now. I got a foglight relocation kit that I want to use and am tired of waiting for the slow boat from CHINA (probably).

TIA

Nope, only the AM grilles. What do you mean by foglight relocation kit?

I got this kit and it's pretty slick.

I'm sure I can 3D print one for cheaper and custom bulb gap. I wonder if there is any demand for such an item. I'm just not to fond of the "buck tooth" look the Eleanor spacing gives off. Plus I prefer a wider light throw anyway
