Which pattern did you get? I'm thinking I will use the "Spectare Mesh". I finally figured out that for these pictures they put white paper behind the black grill so one can see the pattern. In practice I think I will see only the chrome vertical supports.
I definitely want to use one of the two designed for maximum cooling. In my opinion, the Ford engineers designed the FEH around the OEM grill, which is to say no obstructions. I am considering the purchase simply to protect the radiator from rocks & etc. (and because I think it will look cool).

Mines an '06 with very little chrome. I think the new ones (because of the chrome package) might look better with the polished stainless.
I ordered the high flow mesh... I think the Spectare for the Summer. Yes... probably overheating isn't an issue in the summer but..
Rocks started to scare me when I read about the guy who took one in the radiator here and someone whose replaced two foglamps... and then last week I had one foglamp taken out... and then I said... Hmmmmm
Mine are PURELY functional.... at least thats what I'm tellin the fiancee....
I ordered a set for the winter as well to help with EV mode, but in the summer I'm pretty happy with getting ~32MPG traveling every day 38miles on the freeway at 75MPH in the summer. Mines a 4WD too... in the winter is when it stings. If I was willing to drive slower I could easily push that summer number up to 34-35.
