I apologize..I was playing around on the site..and seems that our grill will work

I think it’d look amazing on a 15-17 and be more plug and play. Of course maybe it wouldn’t look right since the 15-17 fenders are narrower. But the round fog lights could also be used in the grille with an adapter. For some reason I just can’t get with the idea of replacing my bumper with one that doesn’t have fog lights.

Yes but still not confirmed on several parts per levittown.

Several major parts still needed to get it to work, but it is a start and proves it is not vin blocked like 50 anniversary parts.

It is a risk cause the lower corners of the mach 1 upper have a different curve so I doubt a gt upper grill can be used.

The compatibility check can be off.

Could just be the grill itself..but could still fit the opening of the bumper cover. Definitely be nice to know for sure .

Won't fit, need 18+ fenders, uses sandwich connectors and need the 18+ head lamps to get it to work, plus 18+ hood.

Only thing that will probaby work is your parking lamp wiring

Looks to be more curved edges on Mach 1 corners and the Mach 1 grill is two tone with two sections, has gunmetal/satin magnetic grey surround around the gloss black section.

Looking at that picture..definitely looks like it would be a issue not fitting.

well not the actual Mach 1 bumper but there’s gt350 and gt500 bumpers made for the 2018+ those bumpers are based off of the 15-17 front.

Those are custom to the 18 and those companies also offer a separate 15-17 version

18+ hood and head lamps require the front bumper top and lower area under headlight to be different mold and shape than a 15-17 cover and front bumper to fender connector is now different as being a sandwich connector vs the 15-17 side clip version which caused sagging over time.

Anderson is developing carbon fiber parts for the Mach 1, stay tuned...........

I don’t think we’re on the same page. Much like a 15-17 style bumper can be made to fit a 2018+. With CAD an 18 style not an oem 18 bumper can be made to fit a 2015.
