Mike they look great... nice choice for your color. I don't think they would look as good on my black car though. I'm still pondering what to do about mine but have to do something soon as they look awful with the nuts showing.

By the way did you once remark that you had painted your radiator and other parts so they didn't show though your grille? I've purchased the Agent 47 grille and wondered if I might want to paint my radiator and any other parts. Its very recessed and with an open mesh that will probably allow whatever is behind there to show through.

Thanks Ken, I followed your advice color wise!!

By the way did you once remark that you had painted your radiator and other parts so they didn't show though your grille? I've purchased the Agent 47 grille and wondered if I might want to paint my radiator and any other parts. Its very recessed and with an open mesh that will probably allow whatever is behind there to show through.
Hey how are ya?? Yes, I did some blackout work behind the upper and lower grille on Karen's Bullitt....I have to agree with you, the A47 is going to show virtually everything....I used flat black rattle can, RustOleum. Actually it's more the AC condensor than radiator, but I also had to hit the color areas around the hood latch, etc....So far, it is holding up just fine.....I took some junk towels, and basically masked it off with those, then shot the flat black.....

Hope it helps,
Mike

I'm doing great and I see you guys are doing all right with 2 Stangs... his and hers. Maybe I can get my Karen to trade in her beloved Intrepid so we could do the same.

I'm going to take your advice and do some painting behind the grille before I install it. But I won't need to paint the black painted areas.

Thanks for the help Mike. Its always appreciated.
