Default Ford Raptor Grill on 2000 Ford Ranger XLT

Ok so I am in machine shop and I wanna make a grill that looks like the raptor's. I have looked around google and maybe I am missing a huge answer somewhere but the font used for the FORD lettering is copyrighted by Ford. SO what would be one that is very close to use? Any ideas guys? Also post any pics if anyone has done this, need all the visual aid I can get! I will be using a cnc plasma cutter for the letters.

Noone's gonna care if the 'font' is the same, or as close as you can get it. Good luck.

Mcneill racing has a direct copy that you can buy and install yourself. they dont have ot for the 200 but with a little bit of trimming im pretty sure it will work. here is the link to their website. http://www.mcneilracinginc.com/raptor-fiberglass/ i hope this helps out
