Does anyone have any helpful advice on the install for the chin spoiler/grill delete combo?

Straightforward install? Any problems? Suggestions?

If you have to remove the pony for the grille delete you will need a special torx bit that has an open center (put there to make the pony harder to steal).

Other than that, it should be fairly easy.

It's pretty straight forward, I didn't even look at the install instructions.

The only PITA is getting the four blind 7mm bolts which hold the bottom half of the honeycomb grill down. That part slows the whole process down to a crawl, but after it's pretty much smooth sailing.

Just make sure when you're doing the chin spoiler install you have someone helping you keep the spoiler into position while drilling. It's really important you have it flush and everything is clamped down into place.

I put my chin spoiler / grill delete on last night (got the special package from Mustangtuning) and love it. Makes the car that much more aggressive looking.

Now I just need some tint.

Chin spoiler was easy. I used the fastener kit that the dealer sold me with it. You have to choose to install like factory (flush at the wheel openings and slightly back at the front) or flush up front and short on the sides. I did it like stock Mach 1.

Grilled delete wasn't too bad either. You have to take all the top fasteners out of the existing and pull it forward to get at the bottom fasteners. Kinda a pain in the a$$, but well worth it.

That combo is what I have and I think it makes the front end look ALOT more aggressive.

I got the special deal also, I went onto Mustang Tuning at like 11PM before the deal ended and couldn't get it to order because they ran out of stock on the chin spoilers. Pete got ahold of me the next day and told me once they got them back in he'd give me the deal. They are supposed to be in tomarrow so hopefully its here for the weekend.

Thanks Mustang Tuning!

Pretty simple. Just follow the directions and both should take you no more than an hour to install.

Where can you find the special torx bit or will a regular torx screwdriver work.
