Looks like 9-10 horizontal bars (just like the original 66 GT-350), so that eliminates the cervanis and BBR grilles. Might be a CDC but the pony is wrong.

The lower valence is Xenon, but I haven't found any billet grilles made by them.

I've PMed the owner, but he doesn't visit the TMS site often.

looks like CDC's grille, it might have been released. Interesting set-up, I prefer the stock grilles however.

[/b][/quote]Looks like a photoshop job to me. Look how the pattern of the reflection in the top grille exactly matches that in the lower, except shortened.

Definitely looks real to me. If it's a chop, it's the best one I've seen. I see what you are saying though about the bottom grille, but any bottom grille would be an exact replica of the top grille (same size bars and spacing) but smaller to fit the smaller opening. You can see the reflections on the front bumper from the top grille... so that one definitely looks real. I guess someone could have "chopped" the bottom grille to match... but my guess is it's all real. I would also guess it's made by Xenon, since it fits their front bumper.

Never mind. I was able to talk to the owner of the car above (Patrick). He told me that he took a 1967 mustang after market Mustang grille (part # 8201C) and cut it to fit.

No wonder I couldn't find it anywhere.

That's actually a good idea. I guess after he cut it, he just had it re-chromed. You would probably have to get a '65 grille chromed anyway. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif[/img]
