Default What looks better?

Which looks better (did some paint shop mods), with or without the bumper guards (not sure of the real name of them)? I also took out the running horse..

It just doesn't look complete without them IMO. Of course, I am used to seeing my 65 with them, so I may be just a tad prejudice.

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.

Well, the next thing that's going on is this shelby hood so, the running horse is out to pasture..
