The grill is from a v6. I got a great connection at the Ford dealership here in Memphis and I was able to pick it up for 60 bucks new.
I got tired of people flashing thier lights at me every time I turned the fog lights on and I was getting tired of the same mundame look that every GT had, so I decided to get the v6 grill and black out the pony to give it the effect of having a full black grill.
I can assure you that the v6 facia and the GT facia are different. I had to do alot of modifing to the front facia to get it to work right, but the efforts paid off. I have noticed too that the car runs cooler with the more open grill than with the grill with the fog lights installed.

Thanks for the compliment. Oh, I love the pic of rosie...hahaha

I wonder what would happen to the GT if one were to take the standard GT grill and apply a Dremel to it...?

The car looks good. I've never been a fan of hood pins though - especially if that is the stock hood. If you wanted to gain the functionality of your fog lights you could get the pony package grill. You won't get flashed as much since they are smaller.

Nice Ride!
Dynospeed did my original tuning. But I switched to Bama after I started having pinging issues.
You've been to t&t @ Memphis Motorsports Park, haven't you?

Hey guys, sorry for the delay..... No, those are the real deals. I put the hood pins on there because I noticed that when I go about 100+ (not often though) the hood just shakes like crazy.

Hey Sharky, Yeah, I've been to T&T in Memphis. With the heat here in Memphis lately, you barely can get a good run. I usually like to go during the Midnight Madness...you?
