Well, if you are looking for opinions, I wouldn't do it. Removing the stock grille will not look too good since its removal will expose the various holes and ugly plastic underneath. The Mach 1 kits include a trim panel to cover that stuff up.

I disagree with the above. You can do it, and I don't think there is no critical that is "exposed". Yes, grill delete is the much cleaner look. But the straight delete like you are saying is what numerous racing Mustangs do. A little crude, yes ... but no real reason why not for just a couple of weeks.

If I had a Bullitt, I'd get rid of the pony. If you've seen the movie, you know why...

I had done that to my black GT because I hated the honeycomb just like you. I didn't think it looked that bad, except for the srewholes and the minor scratches, it'll save you a little patience doing it now and then putting the delete in later, like 1/2 now 1/2 later. I got really pi$$ed at my grill, not that it was hard, it just is a PITA and I thought I would permanately bend the plastic. Turned out okay though....
