Come on bro, you have a 427R and want to put a knock off Roush grill on there?

I dont know i think that you should just get the real one and be done with it, it is after all a limited production car.

i think your car is AMAZING and it is so beautiful and i would kill for one, but is it just me or is the side stripes kinda weird...? when they first came out it caught my eye on the roush.... it would look cooler with a different design like a solid hockey stick graphic imo

DRock...

point made, however if theres virtually no difference between a grille u buy from roush for 300+ and a grille u get from ssinserts or mrbody kit for around 140, then i would be an idiot to pay more for the same thing....it wouldnt matter if it was a knock off or not as long as they look the same, u wouldnt be able to tell a difference....

for all we know, one company in the world makes those grilles and sends them out to all the different stores who put there own price on it, and we all know about the Roush markup.....

08BlackoutStang...

which grille is that and where did u get it for how much please?

as for the hockey stick, the angle in my sig is awkward and hilightes the wheel and brake and distorts the hockey stick....heres a better pic :-)

ONF1R your car looks great!

I agree that the ROUSH high-flow grille will make it even nicer. While you're at it, I suggest you also install clear front turn signals... the amber stock units just clash with the rest of the car's color scheme.

i was goign to get the roush to... but then i saw a side by side comparison at a mustang show and they are litterally twins... almost down to the weld points on them haha roush marked up a normal grill... and as for where i got it and price let me go back into my paper work stored on my computer and i will get that info for ya....

o and your stripes are awesome the picture in the sig just made it look off
