i have seen them on e-bay as well for that pricing but by the time they add s&h onto it, it would equal out to about the same price of a new one from on-line.

Another cheap option i did myself; Unbolt your grill and remove the mustang symbol. Bondo in the holes, run a line of paint tape across where the grill used to be and paint that area black (where the grill-delete plastic part would be otherwise) and make a simple bracket to hold the stang symbol.

Btw that cost about $10 bucks, for gloss black spraypaint and paint tape. Probably $20 if you want to go buy a simple bracket from a hardware store, plus a couple small 10-32 bolts and nuts.

Actually i dont yet.But i'll get one once i get some batteries for my camera. From more than7 feet away, it looks almost exactly like a grill delete kit. I think its got a cleaner look as well, no extruding plastic parts.

The yellow-black tone of minedoesn't really need any sort of transition, but if you had any other color, i think a silver pinstripe would look good as a transition. Im good at laying paint tape so the paint line is damn near perfect, but take your time and you can get it perfect as well.
