Some of the Roush guys have put a Roush "R" there - like the Fender Badge. It is such a nice piece and it is all billet.

Another consideration might be a custom piece. Pricey, but it will be original and to your liking.

I agree with you Linda about the custom badge. And to be honest I have been going back and forth on whether or not to just go ahead and get the SS center mount or to wait it out for something like the Crager grille??? IMO the center mount looks off center with the Steeda hood (from the pictures I have seen, not in person) so I am reluctant to go ahead with it. I don't know, maybe I am just picky!!

Oh, by the way, just noticed your sig. and it must be nice having to choose between those two cars in morning on which one will be driven!!! I guess somebody has to do it.

If you really like the Steeda Hood, i would suggest running that on the car and then deciding if you want to do the Center Mount Grille. Consistency is also a thing to consider if Your grill is different type and pattern than that of the Air Dam. Seen some cars like this (there is one on the current cover of 5.0 Mag. and it is very obvious), and they look mismatched. Another possibility i would consider is the Steeda Hood in the Steeda Two Tone Paint scheme and painting the OEM Grill the Body Color. I did this on the last show car i had and it was beautiful. Kept the Factory Fit, but it also looked custom.

The Sig of mine;- lol - Angel comes out on nice days once in a while only - shows, shop maint. & street shows. The Roush helps keep me out of her and keeps the motorhead in me in check.

Thank you Linda, I appreciate it very much!!

I'm very pleased with how the stripes came out....Lots of work, lots of cussing, but worth the outcome.....

Thank you again,
Mike

Your Stang looks like a Show Winner to me. Stripe job is really unique and it shows well.

Well, I was going to call you on it, but it looks like you posted yours 7/1/05, and mine went on 7/27/05. Lol. But I promise I'd never seen the combo before. But they look great on all of our cars, and that's what matters.

It's an underwater bridge at the end of a lake in Alabama. It's always been like that. The lake is fed by a stream at one end, and the stream flows out at that spot. When they started building houses by that lake, they just layed a concrete slab down and that spot serves as the overflow point. Cheaper than building a bridge, I guess. The metal poles are just to keep folks from driving off in the lake.
