Navigator Clip?

Thoughts? I have the possibility of buying one, and stealing the front clip off of it.


This is not the actual one, but to get an idea of what it would look like in silver







If someone wants to photoshop this, that would make my day

If you're asking us you've already convinced yourself. Lots of pictures (as was said) and is a Lincoln Patman grille possible?

Don't forget to vote AZ.

@Pat, I can't seem to find the pic, but I saw a gray f150 with a Lincoln clip at the Carlisle truck show in 2009 that about gave me whiplash. Never got a chance to see if it was a real navi clip an aftermarket conversion kit. Would love to do this to mine.

Found this, but not sure if it's oem parts or not.

Everything evolves and I think this is the next logical step in the evolution of Fiddy. And as the Nike ad's say, Just Do It!!!!!

gonna go against the crowd here and say not on fiddy pat. truck is clean as it sits with the f150 clip. feel like navi clip would take it too far.
