Default I need help on mounting GT horse on Bullitt Grill

Hey gang, I have a question...I want to get the 2008 Bullitt grill on my car and also mount the running horse found on the GT grill, does anyone know how to do this since the bullitt grill does not have the cut out like the GT grill for the horse?

thing is, the bullitt grille has an angled crease in the center, so to get the emblem to sit flush, you'd either have to bend it in the angle of the crease, or use a dremel to flatten down the crease. i suppose, if you're really talented, you could cutout the center in the shape of the pony, like the stock grille, but it would tough to pull that off without mistakes.

Seems like you are defeating the point of the exercise. It's like buying a GT and putting a V6 in it. Makes no sense! The Bullit grill is one look, and the GT grill is another look. Pick one or the other and enjoy it. If you change the Bullit grill by putting the horse on it, then it becomes a GT grill, so what was the point?

No giant fog lights...

Aren't there after market GT grills with no fogs on them? I would think there would be lots of choices for the GT as compared to the limited choices for the V6.

The thing is, I have the Roush bumper and the dealer ordered the V6 grill thinking it would fit, but it won't, it is shorter than a GT grill and I want that look...esp since I have the roush fog lights wired in and working properly...

if you really want put an emblem on the bullitt grill, you should put off to the side (looks meaner)...



maybe use the pony/tri-bar emblem, or something more original like a small gt emblem or a skull...

If you really want a running pony on your grille, I think you should consider a black one from the '10 GT.
