Black Billet Grille

Ok guys i am going to place an order for a new Roush front fascia for my 06 GT, well i was looking to replace the grille with a billet one since i really do not need 4 fog lights. I was looking at the CDC Black billet grille and the Roush Trak Pak grille, and really i am not seeing a difference in the design or number of blades, so what is the real difference and is the Roush grill really worth the extra $35 without the emblem ( i am judging this price as CDC grille w/ emblem $315 vs. Roush grille w/o emblem $350 + pony grille emblem $35) or should i just not use the Roush foglights and go with an Agent 47 hi flow grille for $300

Even if you didn't use the roush fogs,they are still there. So I say go with CDC grill. Roush is overpriced IMO. I thought about going that route but I spent over 300 for my Cervini,so I gotta wait for now or wifey will kill me.Here is mine

i had the cdc and sold it to 07alloygt. i picked up a shelby gt-h grill and grill housing directly from shelby. Its snaps in just like the oem and looks great. I actually like it alot better than the cdc. You can get it for around $220. Just call shelby, www.shelbyperformanceparts.com

Hey I've been looking too. But I want a matching lower grille too. Does anyone besides CDC make both for the stock bumper?

I recently purchased a black billet grille from ss inserts. It was a lot cheaper than the others and the quality was very good. On the other hand, the directions for installation were...less than helpful. These "typical" 30-60 minute installs take me 3 hours. I guess that says something about my wrenching skills! If I get a chance I will post a pic.
