Default Finally completed my new Front end. {BIG PICS}

Just a proud V6 owner who wants to show off the new front end.
I got the Street Scene Gen. II bumper cover a few months ago, but waited till I got the new grill and clear corner lights before installing.
I'm extremely happy with it, and now there's a large opening in the lower front where a X-charger intercooler would look perfect, don't you think :-)

Looks good!!!! I'm looking to get that bumper in a few months. Noticed something that looks like a tube in one of your pics. Is that a brake cooling duct?

Good eye Bronx, it's actually my attempt at getting cooler air into the CAI filter. I had some old rubber tubbing laying around the garage, so I routed it from the bottom of the CAI heat shield to the bumper cover. The idea is that as I drive cooler air outside the car will get pushed up the tube to the air filter. I doubt it makes much real difference. It fit better on the old bumper, so I may modify it, or take it out when the X-charger arrives.

Thanks for all the nice words.

07 stang, I got the bumper cover from thepartsbin.com, it was $298 when I bought it, that said it was a clearance sale. Do a google shopping search for "street scene generation 2 mustang" to find the best price. Of course you'll need to have it painted too, so that's more $$ to add to your price.
I love the more agressive look and am happy I went
for it.

That isn't the CS6 front end, it is like the CS6, but it is just a little different than the actual one.

Looks good though.

That looks really good, and I think its going to look great with the intercooler in place.
