Default Looking for a Badgeless, Fog Lightless Grill

As the title says, I'm trying to find a grill that retains the OEM honeycomb style, but has no mustang or foglights on it. Is that just a stock V6 grill? Will it fit a GT? I just want a very OEM looking grill but without the other things on it. I'd also prefer not to spend $350+ like on the Agent one(tho that one does look good). Any suggestions? Thanks

Edit: I forgot about the Bullit grill. Is that the only one? Not a big fan of the silver ring around it.

Pretty sure the Bullitt's your best bet. I'm fairly certain you can take the trim off it. I seem to recall someone here took it off, and applied it to another grill, I think.

Thanks for the help guys. I did some more searching and it seems the Bullitt might be my only way.

Baught mine when it was only $220, now they want as much as $290 (?!?!?!)

Looks great!

If you try taking off the satin trim, be careful- I tried doing that myself but that thing is stuck on there like a ****.

best bet would be to tape off the trim and paint it flat black. I recall someone breaking theirs when they tried to remove it.

Also im fairly certain brenspeed has a discount on bullitt style grilles this month. The also carry a brand that looks the same but it a bit cheaper then the ford version.

Here: http://www.brenspeed.com/12a203.html
If i recall correctly its a 10% discount if you order via phone only. But id contact them to make sure.

edit: did a quick search and its actually 20% off!

There are also black billet grilles available for what you're looking for, I believe Stack Racing makes'em...

Theres an option to add an emblem but, you don't HAVE to order it.

Crap, I wish you didn't show me that Brenspeed sale. I just spent a bunch on UMI parts. Thanks a lot guys. Those are definitely some options for me to consider. Once reason I was doing it was to let more air into the engine. Didn't realize the Bullitt grill is still blocked on most of it. Still the center will let more air in.
