THe second one may be the KSR grill which I ordered and then threw in the trash about an hour after installing it. I know many here have ordered the SS grill and been very happy with it.
If the second grill is KSR stay away, it it an inferior product. No texture, very brittle plastic and lousy fit.

Actually KSR changed thier grill again. The new ones are not brittle and has the texture like the OEM one.

Negative...

I ordered this grill http://www.parts123.com/parts123/yb....Z5Z5Z50000016a
from CJ Pony Parts....

It's the KSR grille, just so everyone knows who it's from since they don't list the brand or manufacturer on their website....It's still smooth, no texture, brittle, and 1 of the tabs was broken on the one I purchased.

It's going back for credit.....

Go with the SSE.....

PS...This is also the KSR grille from Mustangs Unlimited....they don't mention the manufacturer either....

I see you've already made your decision, so carrying on with this thread is worthless...

But I concur that the Street Scene piece is excellent quality. It really looks like an OEM grille.

worthless?......why is it worthless to post what I added?

On 11/4/06, silverGTvert posted that KSR changed thier grill....well the two vendors I listed are still selling the original version as of 4/16/07.
I also wanted to point out that the two grills I linked to are indeed the KSR grill, since the websites don't list the manufacturer....
