[Abraham5G]

It looks like the 2024 F-150 Raptor mid-cycle refresh is getting a revised grille and new shelter green metallic color option.

Wow...I expected this thread to have a few dozen replies by now.

I personally don't love it and don't think it's any improvement over the current Raptor grill. For that matter, I also think the Gen 13 Raptor variant was better looking than the Gen 14. Regardless, Ford really needs to find some new grill designers. The current STX, King Ranch, and Platinum grills are nice, the Limited is passable, and the rest are just meh. And that last part includes my Lariat Sport.

Yeah not really a fan. I like the that green in some vehicles, but it ain't for me. Guard green was the green to end all greens for me. Unbelievably good color.

The F 150 STX grill is about the only one I really like. The rest just grills to me.

Guard was a nice green and I was sad to see it go. My wife is getting a Lexus NX 350h in Nori Green Pearl so I think that looks nice too. However I have not seen it in person. They are not big on producing colors, just white, black and 50 shades of gray.

2024 F-150 without any camo.

I really like the new headlight design! Hopefully it makes it onto the new regular F-150s with BAP.

Interesting. Seems like a sidestep maybe? The taillights are more visually complex but not sure that translates to visually appealing. I guess same with the headlights? We shall see are more pics are "leaked".

I probably talk about Ram too much on this forum, but I do find it impressive that they are able to maintain decent sales figures without even a refresh for ~5 years now. They've had some minor features changes, but the exterior aesthetic has not changed.

Also, Ford is definitely copying the Sierra's move from a single, cohesive DRL wrapping the headlight to a distinct break at the top, outside corner.

at least it looks like they got rid of those stupid looking yellow lights across the top

Seems like headlight retain their shape but get extra bump. At least ours don’t look outdated at least for another 3 years on the bright side!

Taillights look too Tundra for me. I need to see the DRLs on, but I think I prefer the top and side bars to be continuous rather than making them separate now

When Ford changed headlights from 17-18 I actually thought they took a huge step backwards. At least the 24 doesn’t do that

I think if you zoom in, they are still there.

Government regulation, they are required for vehicles with width exceeding 80 inches.

The headlights don't look too different really. The 18-20 headlights were probably the worst.

The tail lights actually match the leak from a few months ago. As predicted, lots of Toyota styling- looks terrible.

Kinda hard to judge the grill right now. Some of the details look a bit weird. I think the 21-23 raptors were a home run style wise. This is still very good I think, but probably more in line with the 15-20s. The gen 1 raptors were also super good lookin, even after a decade.

Toyota styling in the taillights? Nah I only see Lightning style tail lights
