I'm really pleased with this mod. I ordered the V6 to GT conversion fog light and grill kit from http://www.mrbodykit.com for US$260 and worth every penny. The kit does not come with the switch or harnesses, but I was upgrading from the Pony Package grill and fogs so I had the electrical already in place.
Mr. Body Kit was fast and friendly, and I even got help from them over the phone, as the grill initially did not fit, due to the factory placement of the horn. Stupid horn. I had to move and modify the horn bracket so that it could be tucked below the right-side fog light. Pretty tight in there! Some days I really wish I had tiny fingers. I also had to take a hack saw to my car (wasn't the first time I've done that!) to trim some excess metalwork from around the horn.
Once the horn was moved, the new grille fit like a glove, nice and tight. Unfortunately, I broke a tab off of the original grill, so I've marked it down to US$100 delivered. Should still fit nice and tight into somebody's car if anyone is interested.
Anyway, I recommend this kit to everyone, and no, I'm not trying to turn my car into a GT. I just really, really like the look.

I bought a virtually identical grille from Blue Oval industries. They say on their websote that no modifications are necessary. Had to do the same as you.
Yep, I had to weld some "extensions" onto the two arms of the horn bracket. The bracket attaches to the car with two bolts and fortunately I found a spare hole in the metalwork that allowed me to shift the horn over an inch or so.
In hindsight, I should have waited for warmer weather to do this (it was 35 deg far). The plastic pieces get so brittle that they can snap.
i don't really understand why the kenny rogers video is on there but it is hilarious, and the grille and lights look good i would've gone with that choice had i not gotten the billet grille or plan on swapping bumpers down the road
