Sorry if this has already been posted but I really want this grill. Does anyone make this grill and if so where can I buy one. Minus the cobra emblem though. If not then who can we bug to start producing it? Is there anyone else besides me that is crazy for this grill?

Not a bad looking hood either, especially if those scoops are functional.

I saw this grille on eBay as well and e-mailed the seller. They said it was a fabricated Shelby grille. I did some research and found it at Shelby's site and at mustang's unlimited: http://www.mustangsunlimited.com/itemdy00....1=S7MS8200AR+01

There is quite a bit of customization to do. I figure I'll wait until the is a manufactured product for the '05.

Yeah, I guess no one makes it for the 05 yet. Oh well, I'll try to be more patient.
Hopefully someone will jump into this thread and let us know that they are going to produce this piece. Attn. Steeda, Roush, 3dCARBON, Fang and all the rest. This is what we want. Produce it for us please.

It should be able to use our stock fogs but just relocate them to the center. Keep it affordable!

Does he have anymore for sale or is the EBay auction still going? Would like to check it out.

Nevermind.. I just found his auction on EBay and I see it is for the whole car not accessories.

I sent the guy selling the car on EBay an email asking who made the grill. All he said and I quote "We did". I then emailed him back asking if they were producing it and if I could buy one. I have not gotten a response yet. Their email address is ctoyshop@worldramp.net

Seems kind of wierd. You think they would be touting thier product since there is good demand for it. This is the only thing in google I could find about these guys. Classic Toy Shop and the only way I tracked it down was from the e-mail address.
For them to jump from only doing PT Cruisers to Mustangs seems a little wierd. I wonder if they really did it themselves.

Edit: Found out some more. Looks like it is just a body shop in Florida and they do the PT thing on the side. Guess they do custom work on all sorts of cars. Would probably make the grill special order for you at a hefty price though.

Yeah I think they are testing the waters to see if people like what they have done with there king cobra replica. Kind of a marketing test I guess. I don't like the car as a whole but do like the hood and grill.

I'm going to send them an email with a link to this thread. The subject of the email is going to read "We are talking about you, are you listening? If you build them we will buy them!!"

Sounds like a good marketing ploy on your part Scott. Once they see the amount of traffic on this site it should make them sit up and take notice.

Making a one of a kind is either a paste and glue for show only (not durable to hold up) or very expensive. I know of no where where you can get one grill custom made at a reasonable cost.

The hood looks functional, but is not really directing the air to any particular location, specifically the CAI. If that air from the 4 or atleast 2 vents could be channeled, that would be great!

Well, considering that there is an issue with air build-up under the hood of this car at high speeds (as evident from the GT race car that had it's hood fly off and the guy on here who had his hiney saved by his hood pins), i would say that those scoops would definately fix that issue.

If your going to vent the hood make sure you put enough vents to allow it to flow good and strong. The last thing you want is a whistle or wind sound.
