Saleen Grill or Roush Grill?

So I think with my Ingot Silver there's just too much silver going on in the front and I think a blacked out grill is in order. But i'm torn between the Roush grill and the Saleen grill. Any opinions? Any pictures?

I think the Roush grill looks way better.

I went with the Retro Billet from American Muscle which is basically identical to the Roush. Same amount of bars anyway. But either one looks good. I like the Saleen because its all one piece. But I also put the Roush fascia on mine and have the lower grill as well so that's what pushed me to get the upper grill.

I've heard the quality is kinda lacking on the Saleen one. I'd do some research on that one before you decide.

here is a pic of mine with the Saleen Grill. Ordie is right, its not exactly the strudiest of grills and does feel flimsy when its in your hand. but since i got it as a anniversary gift from the wifey, no complaints here

I love it and the look, here are some pics of it, super ez to install.

I have to say I do like the look of the Saleen a little bit better. Now i'm just trying to imagine it with the CS valence.

Google is your friend. Plenty of people have the saleen grille with the CS front.

I have the boss front and just got the saleen grille in the mail yesterday. Once I get the wiring harnesses for the CS fogs im gonna put it all together.

Edit: Oh, and the HID's for the CS fogs too lol.

I'll be on the lookout for your photos when you do. Thanks for the picture I'm going to try to photoshop in the 302s hood to get an idea.

the full setup on yours looks clean as always bro.

I wanted the same setup but couldnt find the lower parts for a good price,
so just went with the this and left the bottom part open so i can put my hide-a-way plate there.

Btw, if the pics look bland and boring sort of, its because the weather has been horrible. The time I took these it just got done raining and it was misty and no sun... and the car is HIDIOUSLY dirty.

Mmm that looks good. The "5.0L Coyote V8" badge is cool too. But I think if I were to get the Saleen grill I'd just stick the pony emblem that's on my grill now there.

Thanks, you mean the pony emblem over where I have the 5.0L badge? Idk if thatll look to good. Iv seen it in the very middle of the grille that looked pretty cool. Maybe have someone hold it on for you and take a few steps back to see if you really like it there before you make it permanent.
