Very Nice. One of the first things I did to my 00 was swap out the nasty hazy stockers for some 01-04 headlights for the darker look.

Thats a great looking SN-95... One of my favorites here. What is the grille insert you are using? My Cobra doesn't have one... I've toyed with the idea, but I want something subtle like yours, not a billet grille or anything like that...

Its funny you should say that, in 1996-1998 the cars actually came from the factory with that honeycomb backing, my grille insert is actually stock

But thanks alot dude..im glad you like the car!

Hmm... mine is missing. Did 6 cyl 96-98 Stangs come with backing as well? I have a Mustang salvage yard close by that would probably have one for cheap... especially if it was standard on all Stangs of those years.

Wheels and lights were the two things that changed the look on my car. Looks like a brand new car with the headlights.

it is amazing what cleaning or putting new lights on a car will do. Looks 10x better.

Well, the salvage yard didn't have one, but they gave me a diagram with a part number and a place to order one. I am going to keep looking for a used one from a parts car or something... cheap!
