Possibly the first to do this mod

I took the '08 Bullitt gill and modified it to my liking. I used a Dremel and cut out all the holes in the grill opening, painted the front of all the honeycomb, 4 coats of matte clear on just the painted honeycomb and then attatched the '06 V6 Pony Package fender emblem. I absolutely love the turnout Total mod time was around 6-7 hours.

Now you need to paint the latch assembly black and you're set!
