Default Shelby CS6

Has the ship sailed on any chance at getting the CS6 grill with fogs? I've wrestled with which way to go for a bit now with my front end. My wife talked me into a GT500 conversion, but I wasn't completely sure for a few reasons. I mean don't get me wrong, the GT500 front end looks great, but for the most part once you convert your options for lights, grills, etc is extremely limited. Not only that but I wouldn't feel right. I have a v6 and I'd rather celebrate that, not imitate the GT500. I then saw the CS6 and fell in love since it was a highly modded six banger, but my heart was quickly crushed when I found out that the front grill was discontinued. To me the new one without lights doesn't look nearly as good. I've already settled on getting a Trufiber GTS-4 hood with recesses for pins & I think it would go great with the CS6 fascia. I was planning to get the Cs6 hood too, until I found out it was non-functional. Has anyone seen this grill for sale anytime in the recent past anywhere?

I know they discontinued the V8 version, but the V6 specific one that requires modifying your stock grill still shows up at the Shelby store.

Thanks, but I saw that one. I'm trying to find the one with fog lights.

Don't know where to find the grille but the Shelby store has the Terlingua hood on sale right now for a really good price. This is the functional version of the CS/6 hood. I have a similar hood that I bought off of e-bay. My hood is slightly different from the Terlingua but is still functional.

Thanks for the link. After many searches I think I'm going to get a Roush front. I don't want to get a GT500 front and & a regular GT front end isn't worth the cost of upgrading to me. I want something with minimal prep costs & the Roush front fits the bill. The other options available from aftermarket manufacturers would require more prep. The other option I looked at was a Cerbvini kit, but I'm not trying to spend over $3K for the body kit on a daily driver. I also think I've settled on getting the GTS-4 hood as I really like the functional ram air & heat extractors.
