Default Billet Grille for 2010 Mustang GT

Hello to all,

I am new to the forum. I recently purchased a new Brilliant Silver Metallic 2010 GT Premium. So far I have only tinted the windows and installed a 3m clear bra. I am itching to do some sort of upgrade and I am thinking I would like to install a billet grille. Can a few of you guys please post some pics of yours to give me some ideas? Please include the manufacturer and such so I can order it if I like. I am limited to sticking with the same bumper since I have so much invested in the clear bra. Thanks for your help.

I had to RMA mine, the quality of the stack racing 7 bar grill is crap. I had 12 spots of paint bubbling off because the alum wasn't prepped correctly and had oil on it so the paint didn't stick. I guess stack racing has no QC when they package them up. I didn't bother with a replacement RMA.

I was looking at the grilles on americanmuscle.com and I unfortunately like the one that scraps the factory fog lights! I just don't want to give them up. It seems like I am going to be limited when it comes to replacing the factory one. I wish there was one out there that scraps the existing grille but retains the factory fog lights. I would have no problem losing the pony in the middle.

I ended up ordering the one from American Muscle. It is the stack racing one with the pony insert. It is without a doubt a piece of junk. Like others have stated, the paint job is crap and the screws do not work. I had to grind the screws down to fit. It definitely seems that it is going to restrict airflow to the radiator. I live in southeast Louisiana where right now without the heat index it is 100 with damn near 100% humidity. I hate to just scrap it because it was $150. I would like some of the other ones with the fog lights below. My only issue is that I spent good money on this clear bra so my factory bumper is here to stay.
