RE: What looks better?

Yeah, not only the bumper guards, but the running horse and corral is what makes it a Mustang for front end looks, IMO. It just makes it look naked, and certainly not meaner. If anything, it makes it look like a Falcon or some other less than Mustang mean car. If you want a mean look and performance to go with that mean look, put on a shaker hood with an engine that needs it. Now, that's a mean look.

I agree with soaring, It doesn't look complete

Couldnt agree more............ It looks like someone stole some parts off the car while you were sleeping.
And nothing makes a muscle car look meaner than a shaker hood. I will be adding one to my new 06 very soon.

Sorry Nick, but I think you screwed up by taking out the horse and corral. It did not improve the looks of the front end of your goreous Mustang. Instead, it made it look like someone stole the horse and corral;, and left you with a naked front. BTW, your hood still is not right. Get that sucker lined up and fitting flush.

RE: What looks better?
Well, I'm thinking of getting one of these and mounting it in the center to make it look more like the 06 grill. I love the way the 06 grill looks, I want to replace the grill with the same type of grill. For now I think putting just the running horse will look great..
What do ya think?
