Didn't think about that! Yeah, I could just get the grill on and then mess with the wiring some other time when I want to take on the project.

I'd do the GT bumper/grill but I don't want to fuss with the wiring and am kind of neutral about how much I actually like the GT grill.

even though NTO lets you select the color you want, you should give them a call to verify that they have that color available. On the botom of the page they state that they may not have all colors available.

You can make the V6 grill work on a GT bumper. I read through another thread a while back where this guy wanted to make his GT look like a sleeper, so he put in a Pony grill. There was a little fab work with some of the tabs, but the biggest deal was that the pony grill was smaller than the GT bumper opening. What he did was to get some soft plastic or foam (can't remember, it was a roll of something like that) he cut it to fit, and it sealed up beautifully the gap. He posted up pictures and you really couldn't tell. So it's up to you which way you want to go. BTW I agree that you really don't need to wire in the fogs if you don't want to hassle with it right now. Who's gonna know?

pictures can be deceving. He may have done a good job with it, but I bet you can tell by looking at it in person. But if somebody wants to try and make it work, I say go for it. I personally loved my PP grille but I got a good deal on a gt bumper/grille (my bumper was damaged) so I got it. I took a serious look at the two grilles and decided that it would look cobled so I used the gt grille. Then I sold the PP grilles for $225 on CL.

To each is his own.
