Saleen Grille, Roush fascia, Smoked Markers, 401A ****
I haven't seen a Saleen grille with a ROUSH fascia, so I figured I would give it a try! Really liked the way it turned out, looks pretty mean in black. Just have t be very careful when waxing. Also added smoked side markers and the 401A boot and ****.
Tomorrow will be GT500 diffuser and maybe 3DCarbon spoiler, if it's warm enough

I already went the billet route, and wanted to try something new that was a bit more closed. It came prepainted from ROUSH, the quality is same or maybe even better than stock.

Have you thought of cutting out the area in the right side of the Saleen grille? The little space where the Saleen logo is supposed to go, it would clean up the grille a lot.
RTR rims would look so beast on your car, or maybe black super snake rims,
Sweet car, nice mods!

Yes I looked at it before installing, and considered taking a dremel to it. I like symmetry and agree with you. But I wasn't sure it would come out well and that could be a very costly mistake! So instead I think I'm going to eventually see if I can have an emblem or something made to make that area look purposeful.
Not sure yet on the wheels. These, and the Brembos, are OEM wheels I actually really like, and I'm not going to lower this one so I'm not convinced that aftermarket rims could pull off stock wheel gap. But the jury is still out I do like the RTRs and the Track Paks, but if I do it, I will probably want a silver lip to break up all the black.
Thanks for the ideas

We actually had to do the front end twice because the fascia comes with a small shim to accommodate differences between vehicles, but we didn't realize until everything was together and settled that we needed it. The fascia right by the headlight will protrude slightly.
Too pissy to jack it back up, my smaller hands came in handy and I was able to reach under the car and loosen everything back up again.
Funny, everything went much faster the second time around, sigh!

Nice job, looking good. I agree with breaking up the black on the wheels. All black wheels just don't do it for me.

I joined this forum just to speak to you. I have the Roush Fascia on order and it should be here next week from the US. But I also want the Saleen S281 Grille. Having issues trying to get the correct information on how to fit the Saleen grille on a Roush fascia.
Can you help with the details on your installation? Need help!
Thanks
