Not sure if anyone saw this, but S.H.R just released a new honeycomb lower insert for the GT fascia, and while it says it won't fit ours, it does say they are working on one for the CS as we speak. Might be worth checking into...

That is good news. I've seen the GT version in person and it looks like a nice, high quality product.

Well I have been working with someone to get this done, someone who is very well respected on the forums and they have agreed to go ahead with the project. It will be somewhat out of my hands but that may also be for the better but I have some input on it.
check out the latter posts in the link by water junky in the above post. Around post #41.
Thank you Marcello of Silverhorse Racing to pick up where things have left off.
We have been talking for months on this project even when it was my project localy but since the local guy bailed on my I decided to go with the best.

Dude, lately I've been missing things right in front of my nose! Next time, use a bigger stick, I'll get it at some point 
Glad to see you're on it still Doug, like you, I'm trying to stay away from the straight lines and go more towards the honeycomb like the rest of the car.

Black Shelby Lower Grill
I just installed the lower black grill from Shelby on my 2008 GT/CS. Take off the bottom pan 7 small silver hex screws. Pop out the 2 black plastic corner covers from underneath, they have 4 indented slots, easy to pop out with flat head screw driver. Line up lower grill in opening, mark the holes, then drill. I used a rivet gun through the front, the black corner covers will snap over the rivets, so you will not see them. I will try and post some pictures today. By the way, THE LOWER GRILL LOOKS AWESOME !!!!!!!!! Shelby makes a 1st class product !!!!!!

Just a quick head's up since this is the thread that got it rolling - we're working through the CAD design now, the original CS bumper gave it's life for scanning purposes since it was deemed that the CS is not part of Ford's Tech Transfer... that said, we scanned the whole thing via laser probe, so we've got a very nice model to work from. My original sketches are done and as soon as we've got modeling done, we'll go to the prototype stage. I'm still confident of a late summer release for this, and it will look and fit like OEM so it'll be another one of our products that doesn't even get noticed once it's installed, except by people that know their Mustangs
