So after searching, and failing, I'm looking to see if the GT grilles hinder airflow that the EcoBoost grilles supply? Yes I can always open the grille up but want to know prior to ordering or installing

Also does having AGS hinder the option for the GT lower?

Thanks in advance for those that are willing to offer knowledge outside of the search function

You can get a set of GT grilles and fully open up the honeycomb.
There are a few guides on this site
really cheap option, New from Ford, less than 150, used on here or eBay, less tha 100.
If you want to keep the AGS, no problems.

Yea I like the fangs, wish they would have made the OEM grilles with most of the honeycomb actually open instead of all blocked off.

Oh well, as long as the GT upper and lower will work with the Eco & its AGS I'll be good to remove some of the blocked portions for a bit more cooling here in AZ

Point should be made that in order for the lower GT grille to work, you have to remove the AGS completely otherwise it won't fit. There are several grille posts about that here.

That's was one part I have been looking for... since there are so many ridiculous threads that I'm not reading through can you link me to one where it's been covered?
