Opinions on 3 (correction) 4 different aftermarket grilles

Which of the 4 photoshoped grilles do you like best?
They are illustrated in the same order as the poll.


EDIT added the Shelby GT overlay for a side-by-side comparison (far right/bottom picture) and to the pole.

Voted #2 as that is the grill I have so I naturally think it is the best looking.

Blue, for your ride, I think no. 3, but my personal favorite would be no. 1 for most colors such as mine.

I am still waiting for the grill that lets you swap for rectangular fogs instead of round driving lights...

My vote is for the Shelby GT grill insert. It is available now. 13 bars and you reuse the GT grill. The GT grill creates a nice black textured surround for the insert. It is my favorite combination! That said, it is a real pain to grind down the GT grill. I used a 4.5" angle grinder and a steady hand! Also, they will not sell you the pony emblem and mounting bracket. The emblem is no big deal. It is a 65-66 Mustang driver's side fender emblem. I used JB Weld to attach a stainless steel bolt to the back of then emblem and that worked great.

Man, the CDC grille is not feeling the love. I didn't like them that much either until I saw one in person.

Keep the votes coming.

I voted for the Bullitt grille because of the OEM look.
Now, who's gonna make one like it with the GT fogs and no pony?

This is the one I am going to get as well... I saw the grill in person and really like the look of it... I don't like how you have to destroy the current grill to make it fit, but the end results *do* look good...

But, since that's not an option in this poll, I voted #3, since it's the closest...

#1, still can't believe nobody has taken to making the most requested grille of them all.

Kevin Casey already has a Ford part listing for the bullitt grille.
http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showth...hlight=bullitt

Some folks think the grille seen on the white car in this link from SEMA 06 is the future bullitt grille.

You just gotta wait for it.

I guess I don't know my fellow TMSers as well as I thought I did. I thought the black honeycomb grille would be the favorite by far.

heh, Kevin says he predicted the Bullitt back in April, I did on the original TMS before the crash


Back when the fabled 'white car' leaked photos first hit, and I got in trouble for 'exploiting' the capeability of the zoom on the NAIAS camera on the black tie(or should I say black dress) event....Ahh the good ol days of the S-197....
