Bullitt Grill, why is this so $$$$

I love the look of this grill, what is so special about this grill that makes it so expensive, am I missing something?

For every one of those bullitt grilles, one bullitt from the factory did not come with that grill. They came with the standard GT grill with the fog lights. You do not choose to simply "get" a bullitt grill.. it chooses you.

Also its so expensive cause only Ford makes one really and there isn't any made by aftermarket companies...

I never was a fan of that grill and seeing the price sure didn't help matters. If someone likes the honeycomb, why would they give up the fogs? I could be wrong, but it looks like its made about the same as the stocker.
375 (go) bucks??? Hell with that, if I was givin up the fog's, I would go this route...looks more retro to me and is metal to boot!

Yea, even better red...i here ya. I don't like the looks of the lower grill on the setup @ AM, and that's why I can't pull the trigger on the upper grill. The pic's I have seen to date with the upper only don't look that good combined with the honeycomb lower, so im out for now.
I would like to see the two upper grills side by side, I would imagine the roush would be made heavier to make up the difference in price but who knows they may be overcharging for the roush name, much like ford is for the bullitt.

I really wanted the Bullitt grille when I did my GT bumper swap.
I couldn't find any for a good price, so I went with the black billet off of AM.
You can't tell when its on, but it is a slight PITA to make the holes line up with the holes in the radiator cover.
After its on though looks great, very aggressive look, IMO. I really doubt you will be disappointed.
