What do you mean kill the lines? Why Ford did two fascias is a mystery; The GT w/o lic section is a whole lot smoother than the V6 especially if you don't have a front lic plate. ...not quite sure what you are asking, but a new fascia means a new grill (V6 grill does not fit in GT bumper)

Yeh i was thinking of getting the saleen take off kit with the grille aswell. No i was saying the gt bumper looks nice, but with a license plate it seems like it would kill the lines of the bumper. I wanted to c if anyone had pics with the plate on. New yorks at pain in the a$$ with license plates

Gotcha. Yeah, in Mass they have 2 red plates now but older single green plates are still ok and can be xfered to different cars on same driver. I have a single green on my 06 Gt and my 00 Mits Galant; won't give them babies up!

Saleen nose is nice, almost went for that but those little lights just didn't finally sit right with me. Just did CDC Agressive chin spoiler and am happy with that look.

What happened to your lower grill? Is that your radiator? It looks a little unprotected... are there any problems with bugs on the Rad?

Take a look at my signature and you will see pic's of my car with the temp plate on the front. I use to live in NY so i know what you mean, VA is the same way, need to plates. [:@]

By the way, my bro still lives in NY and he has not had a front plate on his jeep since he purchased it, the jeep came from NC i believe where they didnt need them. I guess if you dont **** off the cops you should have no problem.

The lower grill is not used with CDC Agressive chin spoiler (you actually cut away part of the fascia in the install process. Only very very few bugs actually, guess they don't fly that low :-)

I made one for mine , but it needs the middle part on the lower grill <see pics>

There is a guy on Bradbarnett.net making some that may fit the replacement chin spoiler , but the site is down so I can`t link at this time.

Here's the link for the guy "FasTrack" on Bradbarnett.net: http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showth...icense+bracket

He's in production on the brackets. I bought one from him and they are the deal for our Mustangs. The bracket attaches under the bumper and doesn't require any drillng, but uses two bolts to clamp under the bumper. See attached...
