looks great. but IMO it doesn't look as clean as a real mach1 delete because of the piece that goes on the bumper.


but yeah, a non mustang person wont know the difference.

Sorry I took so long, but I like my look. I went to lowes and bought some rain gutter plastic guard... What ever its called. But I cut three peices for each opening and secured it into place behind my bumper. It looks real clean. I hated being able to see my radiator through my mach 1 grill delete. I also tryed it without the horse. It looked real clean. But too much black in front, I need to get a different hood then it would look alot better without the horse in it with that... But I like it. I though I would spread the idea because I think it looks real clean.. Except for the leaf in the lower part of my bumper... [:@] What do you guys think??

Yeah I think I agree, but I don't like that bumper much. I might actually check out how that looks on my car, doesn't look too bad otherwise.

Whats the purpose of this grill delete business? Is it just for looks or does it help air flow? Your removing the honeycomb grill and leaving it off? Its there to protect your radiator.

Its for looks. The little ports on the side of my bumper still have a painted metal grill over it, which is painted and is all chipped so it doesnt look as clean as the grill or the largest opening on my bumper. Its a hell of alot better than having nothing there and just seeing the radiator support, and bolts.

doesn't look that bad...i don't really like the GT front emblem though...just looks out of place...same with the tri-bar in the grill...and i'm kinda undecided about the mesh on the saleen bumper...on one hand it looks good (definitely the best DIY mesh-job i've ever seen) but then on the other hand it does look kinda ricey...maybe it looks better in person?...it does kinda look like it was done by Saleen though

Its there to protect your radiator.
Ford must disagree since the Cobras and Mach 1's come with the grill deleted from the factory. And they warranteed it that way.

I think most people just like the cleaner "jet intake" look. I know I do.
