Few backside pics, you can see the clips holes I was speaking of, and how far the inlet protrudes to the backside. Those washers are bigger than supplied, due to me having to extend some of the holes for good fit.

From the front, you can see how closely I can get it all put together with the SHR grille... for some reason the light is really showing through over the top of the grill in the pic, it is extremely close in person so disregard that.

You opened a discussion you don't want, I debated for a long time.. heres different setups in the link, although all except the factory pieces would require some cutting.

Thank you for the pictures, I appreciate it! Those cuts might not be too bad, a friend of mine has a little shop so maybe he can help me..I just don't want to screw anything up. It might also be a bit easier because the bumper isn't on my car yet, so I could do it before I put it on..also thanks for the link!

Well I'll let you guys know how it goes, I also decided on the ford Bullet grille for the upper grille, it's also the deal if the day on partscheap so I guess I got lucky with that.

I think the foam piece that attaches to the actual metal bumper and helps to keep the bumper cover formed is different. Did you get that piece?
I don't know it for fact, but mine was labeled "GT" so I figured it might be different for a V6?
Anyone know this?

No I didn't get that piece....the bumper won't be ready until tomorrow or Friday, and then I'm going to have to wait until my upper grille comes in before I put it on..should I order it from the Ford dealer? I know Ford brands some parts GT or V6 but in reality they are the EXACT same..

If any V6 guys out there have swapped to a GT bumper please give me some help..
