RE: CDC Black Billet Grille - V6 Version!
I have the GT one on my car. If you are running a "higher heat" application (ie. f/i), you will probably want to check this grill out. The stock grills have only ~1/3 of the honeycombs actually open, where as this is completely open. I am surprised that Ford did not make the grills open in the first place. Before only a tiny part of the radiator was open to fresh air, with this grill, it will be much more exposed. Also, if you have a centri blower, it will push air over the blower area...always a good thing
If you are concerned about the price, this grill is probably one of the best in quality that I have ever seen. Most replacements/overlays are made out of cheap metals, and give a tacky look to the car. The differences are subtle in pictures, but if you see the difference in person you would immediately tell.

RE: CDC Black Billet Grille - V6 Version!
just wondering scrming, but is that yellow 'stang yours? and if it is, was it pictured in an article about suping op the V6 in Modified Mustangs (i think it was MM, it also coulda been MM&FF)a couple months back? the car also had black wheels and the flames coming from the hood scoops.
