It's the Eibach kit, same as the FRPP kit except they're painted red instead of blue.

Now I'm confused??? I thought that grille was one piece...it looks like it has cutouts for the PIAA lights in the upper grille. Has it been changed?

Very nice choice. It's interesting that the grille housing works, as it was orginally designed for the 2008 Shelby GT billet grille. I was not aware that only four small bolts held it in place.

According the the Shelbystore.com site, they are no longer going to make this grille with the holes for the driving lights.
