Front what I discovered, these two grilles have different setting. And most ppl think the GT bumper is needed for GT grille.
Well I'm trying to keep my V6 bumper on and install a GT grille. So I can have 4 fog lights total.
Found a cheap GT OEM grille selling on ebay, not sure if i should get it.
Anyone ever seen pics of these two grilles and have those differences marked?

If it's anything like the 05-09's, the GT grill will fit a V6...BUT...There will be gaps, and it won't fit correctly. If you really don't want to swap bumpers, surely someone makes a grill with fog lights already, no?

I have also thought putting 2 fog lights behind the grille. Just not sure how it will turn out.

If you want four fog lights, get a GTCS bumper cover (it already has the foglights in it) and a GT grille.

Btw, will 4 fog lights be illegal?

You aren't suppose to have more than 4 running lights at once while on a road.
I have a buddy that did the amber removal, the side marker white LEDs, and fogs all running with his headlights, and got a huge ticket. I don't remember amount, but they told him either change everything, or get individual switches for everything.
This is in Texas.
