I don't care for it too much. With a mesh insert, it may look better, but open, I think it looks like a mail slot on a door.

AbsoF'inlutely. I'd open it up and smooth it out ala Mach 1 style and leave it open. Looks awesome. It actually took me a few seconds to realize what you were talking about..which shows that it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb.

Looks ok with the pony emblem, without it, it's too empty.

And for the love of god, don't use a billet grill.

That's true, it is subtle. It actually took me til post 13 to figure out what was going on.

ok i went through and found someof the old pics.

IMO dont do it....looks really nice w the Ford Emblem on it

MrXCESSIVESPEED · Feb 7, 2008

I think it looks good, and adds some symmetry to the front with the opening on the ground effects......

lol/ now everyone likes the grille...???!!!! after all the bashing i had to take..
man it looks sweet! makes your car stand out even more!!! add black backing to hide the imperfections with a large horse emblem..... and THUMBS UP...thats what im doing... i just have to figure out how to cut the plastic bumper without messing it up or ruining its structure so it does not warps or change shape really easy??? anybody<??

I like it but I would be worried about the radiator being so exposed. It definitely gives the car a tougher look up front. With a nice aluminum radiator behind it I think it'll look pretty good. Again though, it will be vulnerable (edit: I see that you already have plans of not leaving it exposed). And yeah, in the name of all things Holy: no billet grill.

Quite a few guys have done it with great results...

I don't like the running pony as I dont like ANY form of badge. The one I have on there now is actually a BLACK oval, not blue .

Interesting the split here.

Mustang5L5 · Feb 7, 2008

I don';t like it.

A personal peeve of mine is when SN95 guys take their pony's off and run an open grill. To me that looks like someone stole their pony.

Here, i kinda get the same idea...like something is missing.

Ozz · Feb 7, 2008

no way

foxmustangman · Feb 7, 2008

I LOVE IT!!! I think it looks awesome! But I dont like the pony. It just needs to be open, and it flows with the saleen bumper really well.

The car just looks incomplete with nothing but the mesh. Putting a small pony in the center would look really sweet however IMO.

foxmustangman · Feb 7, 2008

What about the Cobra grille with out the pony? Then you could paint it first, and if it doesn't match, then repaint it or whatever.

bentley429 · Feb 7, 2008

Looks better with it to me, leave that sweet car alone!

87foxstang · Feb 7, 2008

Yea I say leave it alone, It looks killer as it is

TwoToneHatch · Feb 7, 2008
