That's strange, because I ordered the delete from mustangtuning about 1 month ago and they were out of stock back then also. Guess they don't care to keep enough in stock.

Anyway, I ordered the delete right here

http://www.partshopper.com/fordmustang/itemdesc.asp?CartId={20CFF73CEVEREST-5249-4375-BAB1-DEA34015B6C6}&ic=ST%2D555%2D0205&eq=&Tp=

and had the kit within a few days. Looks great and I'm just sorry that I waited so long to do it.

Mach1 Delete . I did my sons GT and just ordered the parts needed from a Ford Dealer. I also got the inner frame that fits behind the outer section which I have not seen coming with any of the kits, I could be wrong on that though.

The pony he wanted was the CDC American Pony which really looks good. If you wanted the chrome one the guy at the Ford Dealer will get you that too. Shop around at some Dealers for the parts you may even be able to get a price break.

Mach 1 delete for sure. I'm personally not a big fan of the billet grill on our years.

You're right, most people just get the 2 piece kit, but I like the radiator support cover thingie gimmick, or whatever it's called. And if I remember correctly, it's only about $18...quite a bargain and really cleans up the delete look.

I think the steeda kit that Partshopper and MustangTuning sell are both the 3 piece kit. I will be ordering one soon.
