2019 Ecoboost premium convertible in Ruby Red Introduction
I have a 2019 Ecoboost premium convertible in Ruby Red. I have been enjoying ownership of the car and strive to learn as much as I can to help fellow owners with their S550 Mustang. Consequently, I started S550_Tips on IG and YT.

Notice the front license plate is also missing on 3 of the images posted... Very weird along with the grill pony missing on 2 of the images posted.

Thanks for the heads up, but still confused over the missing grill pony!

IIRC! There is still a grille pony on the GT/CS grille, but it is off to one side rather than the center, at least on the OEM GT/CS anyhow.


2022 Mustang GT/CS grille pony offset on driver's side.

He Must Have This Style! Less Emblem! Or Thereabouts!

@S550_tips

Hey OP Give us The Low Down! I'm Done Guessing! Hey S550 We are Curious about You Mods and What Exactly You Used??

Right with you Kevin! Break it down for us OP... Exactly which S550 style GT/CS grille do you have, elaborate?

The story is that I swapped out the Ecoboost grille for a ‘22 GT/CS grille. I took off the emblem since it’s not a GT and I’m waiting on my guy to ship me a custom EB/CS emblem. I have been retrofitting genuine CS parts to have the California Special package on an Ecoboost.

right. When I was swapping the grille, I also detailed the bumper and wanted to get behind the front license plate mount. I just haven’t put it back on yet.

The reason I chose not to go with the GT/CS grille from 15-21 is because it’s copied by the HPP Ecoboost. I’m trying to have it set apart from the HPP. The GT/CS grille from 22-23 looks similar to the Bullitt except it’s doesn’t have the chrome outer trim like the Bullitt grille does.
