raptor inspired grill??

Has anyone seen a grill for a super duty that looks like the raptor grill? I thought of fabing one myself but not sure how to make the letters? Has anyone seen this done or something similar?

its a program that you use and then a CNC machine makes the letters...so he is basically saying design it from scratch...I would try and find a raptor grill and fabricate it to fit on your truck or find a mesh grill similar fabricate the letters attach them and powder-coat it...Hope this helps dont have any ideas for ya...

try and find a company by you that does CNC work, show them the raptor grill and they should be able to make the letters for you or buy some sheet metal and try and make them yourself...thats what i can think of..
