Creating own look Yay or nay
So i've been trying to figure out what I want to do in terms of my front fascia...
I don't like CDC chins much...
The gt500 front end is $$$$$$$$$$
and I like the Roush bumper but the idea of 6 lights on the front always seemed funny.
I also have dual 10" white stripes on, (roush uses 8 inch and they stop at the bumper...)
SO... I did a "Chop" ( on paint lol) Of a torch red roush with 10" stripes (instead of 8)which go all the way down and a black billet grille...
I'm still iffy on the grille ... Any suggestions?
What do you guys think (excuse the poor quality)

Ask your body shop to paint the grille with undercoating I'm an artist and the difference in texture between your glossy paint and the matte grille would be nice, otherwise it looks like you have black red and white gloss paint all in the same area.
I'm so convinced that you'll like this over gloss that I'll have the performance shop i work at paint the grille for free if you want.
Other than that, that should be a good setup. The white and red colors are iconic on the new Mustang FYI.

I wish there was a plain oem style honeycomb grille a la gt500 without fogs I could find.

Just realized the bullitt grille is honeycomb Although I'm not sure about the bezel around the grille, but the honeycomb mock up I did on paint does look better. I added a Tribar pony to fill in some of that open space. I think it looks mean (excuse the quality once again.)
What do you think?
