Default Billet Grill Pics???

Hey Guys,
I'm thinking of putting a billet grill on my silver stang and would love to see some pics of some of your grills. Would also like to know if someone has an opinion on the best billet grill to get. I don't want to loose the fogs or move them though. Is the billet overlay grill a good grill?
Thanks for the help,
Gman

We have the billet grill overlay. It was an easy install (if you have small hands We have had no problems with it and we love the look!

+1 ... I am planning on getting the CDC fogless grill when I upgrade.... I am not a huge Fan of the Mustang GT Fogs but, they are very functional at night. I think the Stock lighting on the car sucks so I currently use the fogs all of the time. Once I get the grill I plan on upgrading to a HID lighting system to alleviate this problem.

Anyway, I would go with the CDC. It is a much cleaner look... Just my $.02

Check out this pic of CainMotorsports Car... I think this grill is perfect...

I do like that look (of the CDC grill) but like you said Tek the fogs are very functional at night, and I kind of like the distinguishing look the fogs provide to the GT. I'm thinking of doing the overlay instead of the replacement just in case I ever want to take it off. Would love to know where you got your grill MetalMech???

here is a pic of the overlay CDC grill... it is a little different than the one posted above as it does not have the metal trim surrounding the fogs.



you can purchase it right from CDC's website... cost is $250... I am sure you can get a better price somewhere though.

I know this is offtopic and don't want to hijack the thread but, MetalMech is that an autobadge painted pony? And if it is, how was the install with an overlay grille? I'm considering one myself.

I have the CDC one with the fog cutouts, I LOVE it. See my avatar for a picture. Let me know if you want a bigger one.

EDIT: I haven't had any problems with it at all. Seems high quality and keeps it's shine really nicely. I can't comment on install as Dealer had it put on when I first looked at the car but I've heard it is very easy.
