I agree a new grill is a good choice but if you are going to pay to get something new, why not go with something more unique than what is on almost every newer model sixer?

That's why I wanted something that seemed custom. I liked the Street scene but my friends still wanted that center pony. Then I tried for a GT but that either requires a takeoff + adjustments and then I saw the one that's in the middle of the two: has the pony in the middle and has the fogs in between the spots with there GT fogs normally are and the pony - it was perfect! But it was $300...

It's the last one on that list.

Your opinion comes first...

Have you looked into the billet grills?

I have, and really like a couple, but the Foglight function with independant switch ability is something I REALLY want for this girl.

Understood, I love my "fog lights." If you like the billet grills I know some of the guys on here have been experimenting with placing the fog lights behind the grill.

Hey noober what size tire you got on your V6? Might be the angle but it seems small.

I know this isn't on your little list but have you thought about getting the rockers painted?

I know this wasn't on your list, but ditch the hood scoop, forget the grill, save some more money and get a shaker hood scoop. Just my .02.

Shaker hood was WAY out of my budget and I'm personally skittish of tearing apart my hood. + if I ever have to resell my old girl, everything would be removable.


To the guy that commented about my wheels - they are smaller than what you all normally get. They're measily 17s. For some odd reason, I like big tires (I personally loved my 16s before I dodged the dog and clipped the curb.)
