Have the same, great choice. I paired it with a CS lower fascia, and found a guy on Boss 302 forums making custom wire mesh lower sections to match the fog light delete mesh.

Is the emblem easily removed or will you just mask it? Just curious as I plan to get that grille and I agree I think it would look even better painted.

Once the emblem is on there, it isn't coming off as on the back of the emblem has two cross shaped barbs (for lack of a better word) that is wider then the hole so once you put them on they click into place and lock the emblem in. I plan on masking off the center section and grabbing some primer, paint, and clear and get it as close to the car's paint as I possibly can. It shouldn't be too hard considering my car is black but I could mess up a wet dream

Thanks guys , I like the new look you don't see a lot of 5.0's with this grille. The billet look just wore off on me I'm glad I went this route

Look up Mike (06Mach1) on SVT forums. Not sure if he is still making them, he was doing batches of about 15 at a time when he had enough interest for a run. You can also Google something like "Boss lower fascia wire mesh insert" to get to some threads on it.


He made a very high quality power coated piece. Love mine....

Very cool! For some reason, the car looks more "serious" with the tri-bar logo up front vs. the big running pony.

Definitely , every time I think I need new rims I can't do it because everything is heavier. Bang for buck definitely is there with TSW

Really nice car, a hood scoop would look so good on your car as well
