I've had it! I want the CVPI honeycomb grille on my Marauder at any cost!

[studio460]

That's it! I've had it! Want to convert my Marauder front end to the CVPI honeycomb grille. Who here knows EVERY part I'll need to replace to make the grille actually fit? I know I'll have to buy headlights, turn lights, corner makers, etc, and some kinda metal parts too, right? At this point, I don't care what it costs, I just need to know what to buy, and The Dealer can ship it all to me in one big pile!

HUM HUM. Went to a bad restaurant ?

Sorry i couln't help with that one. I think it would cost quite a bit of money and problems for just an appearance mod.

But, if i can permit, i would rather go to my "awaiting to be installed" list or better yet, order the supercharger in your wish list ! I notice you have the CRD1 computer code. Same as mine. Greg associate have already a tune for that computer code. With the Procharger, you'll find a smile that no grille in the world with be able to fade away.:)

:mad: Before; ==> :D After.

Add the CV header panel to that list... Did you know the FORD emblem on the honeycomb grille is similar to the waterfall on the MM grille and can't simply be removed? Ask how I know...

Dude, calm down.
The last thing you want on your car is a ford front end, it will look like *****.
Someone from this website needs to come up with a sheet of honeycomb material, in fiberglass or plastic. NOT METAL.

I will make anyone anything within reason. I will tell you that I do not enjoy hunting around for custom materials, so please find it for me.
I have about 20 grill shells laying around, ready for customization.
Let me know.

Snowbird, look at NBC's location. THAT'S why an S/C isn't on the very top of his list.

NBC: Listen to Zack.

He can build it for you.

[studio460]

THANKS ZACK! I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT! I WILL find plastic grille material and send it to soon. However, if I DID want to replace the entire front end, all I'm missing is the CV header panel?

[DEFYANT]

Mod the MM's grill... I agree.

[Marauder2005]

Yes, you would need the header panal of the CV. I don't think the CV

front end holds a candle to our MM front end, so please do not change the

whole front end to a Crown Slug, unless you plan to use it as a Taxi :)

:bump: :bump: :bump: whoa, NBC dude where have you been; filming a d oc u m e n t a r y. Welcome back.

I agree just have a custom MM grille created, don't spend all that extra money if you don't have to.

Here are a couple of links I found:

Zack, I'm curious will you (if you find the correct material to work with) have the honeycomb flush with the grille or set back like on the F150 trucks and Crown Vics???

[cb13]

here's an idea:

since you love the cvpi grill so much (and this would apparently be a pretty major undertaking to convert your mm...in terms of both time and money), why not buy an used up cvpi at an auction for cheap, throw on a set of mm rims and go with it!

this way you have the look you like and something you drive in a snowstorm and not worry about!

just a thought.

What if I had a CVPI honeycomb grille laying around, could that fit into a MM shell?

To make it (FORD) badgeless...he'd need two.

I'm not exactly sure, but wouldn't you have to splice in the honeycomb perfectly in order to hide where the Ford oval used to be?

Seems like it would be a bastage to get that to look just right. I'd imagine that's why Zack just wants honeycomb stock. Much, much easier IMO.

No, already tried it.

Short answer, Im Zack. I can do anything!
I browsed the sites you provided, but I do not think any will work.
What we need to do is get a hold of the manufaturer of the Dodge ram grills and buy some material from them.

[studio460]

I don't mind the Ford badge.

[theredlineboss]

I can't understand why you'd want the CV grille, but you would need the headlights, header panel, grille and front bumper cover for the conversion.
