What are your thoughts?

Does anyone know whether or not the 2005 GT grille can be replaced with the Saleen grille? Do you guys think that this would look cheesy? Just to have the grille (rear and front) and no other Saleen parts? I like the Saleen wheels too.

Dammit! Maybe I'll just buy the Saleen...but to be honest it is out of my budget!

(I couldn't figure out how to attach a pic with this post)

Looks good apart from the spoiler. The rear reminds me of a '71 cuda. I like it!

The vertical posts between the headlights and grill remind me of the GT500E. :drive:

Out of the other aftermarket company's versions of the '05, I actually think I like the Saleen best.

The front is a little 'plain' to me the more I keep looking at it (its my wallpaper right now) but I really love the rest of the car - ESPECIALLY the wheels. I find myself not liking most of the 18-20 inch wheels I have seen posted on this site but these really click with me for some reason.

Just a bit too pricey for my wallet!

No the Saleen grill will not fit on the stock front fascia.
