I'm leaning towards the pony logo only because there's a little 'red' in the tri-bar.

the guy had mine sent VERY quickly. I had it in my possession like 9 days after I ordered it. He is very good with emails. He tells you when it gets sent out, and then he mails it USPS. Very good. A+

Well get sold on them Bill, almost everyone thinks they are the bees knees pal.

The recessed look is fine, very fine, looks like it came with the car instead of a bolt on.

I vote SHR louvers, boycotting the vote on the sticker

Bring a ruler out to your car and measure that sticker (like I asked y'all this morning) and you'll have your answer.

At 4x2, it should look just fine even if it's bordered by that lip.

I don't know, since I got a smaller one to put on the dash.

BUT...., I think he will custom make it to any size you want. That's what he did for me, to make sure that it fit b/w the AC vents.

I guess I'll do that later today. Unless someone wants to run out to their car and check.

That isn't my car, it is another TMS stang... Matt is his name. I love those louvers BTW, they are awesome! I wasn't sold until I saw them in person and I love them but just don't have the money. The missing object is my lower grill... Thanks to a kamakazi coon.

MGW ROCKS!
I'd love to get the Watts suspension as well.

The opening is 7 x 2¾.

Even at 4 x 2, it'll look a lot better then the wrinkley sticker that's there now.

So is that measuring from inside the box? outline? outside the outline?

Dang, it's not that critical!

Inside the outline is like 6 15/16" x 2 11/16".

Hence... 7 x 2¾".
