    My emblem is off a 2004 new bodystyle F150 so it's a little bigger then the one that comes on the 97-03's. I don't think I've ever seen a billet grille with a cutout either, now that you say that. Most people just remove their emblem and stick it on to the grille with 3M trim adhesive. That's how mine is on there and it's been there for years with no problems.
