First of all I'm not saying I don't like the Fog lamps on the GT. I've just kind of prefered the look of the V6 grille with out them. Has anyone seen or done a foglamp delete on their GT? Of course the Shelby front end is just about perfect if you ask me. I know the Saleen front end is one option, but I'm interested in something that keeps the car looking stock and not too flashy like the Saleen front.

IMO the fogs make the look of the front end complete...


That said, I am going to be converting my grille to the Shelby one, as well as custom install the same mesh on my SS kit.

I made mine disappear with static cling limo window tint. Works great and cheap.

I did the same with mine.
I did see a V6 with the GT front grill last week.
I will confirm that these are not the same shape and shouldn't be changed out unless you do the whole front bumper.

After markets have made full grills for the new chrysler to make it look like a bently, but we can't get a simple stock looking fog light delete? I think I saw someone with a billet grill, but I woudl rather have something that looks stock, even it is metal and has a chrome mustang rather then the plastic. I mean, come on aftermarket, this car has been around for over a year now...... :scratch:

Not too keen on hiding or deleting my fogs but I really like that hood. Where did you get that?

There is a one way to do a grille delete on the GT that I know of. Street Scene offeres a V6 front fascia that holds the V6 grille but will still fit on the GT front end.

Correct me if I am wrong?

Well I want my car to be somewhat retro, and all of the GT's back in the day had foglights so I wouldn't feel right taking them off because it was a feature that distinguished them from the rest of the herd.

I would love to have a GT front facia on my V6, but not add the fogs, too bad it won't fit.

Still haven't found an aftermarket solution for this. I think smaller fogs underneath the bumper would look great on a gt.

I like the way ROUSH has lights on their front bumper, but they keep the GT foglights

Yeah, I wonder if it would look good without the GT fogs... might be a good alternative if its possible

I don't see how anyone can plan on putting in the shelby grill when it's a different shape than ours, and doesn't fit the stock bumper.
