I just changed out my OEM GT grill on my 2020 to an eBay Bullitt style grill, mostly because I can’t stand the fangs. I did like the black pony on the front, but that’s okay. I’ll just put a pony on the back, so the Cameros can see it.OEM look without the pony.. on EBay $92.00. I haven’t pulled the trigger yet...

I was thinking of trying out M-8200-MBA for a project
It does have several small holes cut into honeycomb on the sides for the intake. not as open as a base grill though.
FP still has not gotten back on if ACC works (they did install it on an ACC model) but have to go out and test drive it and check it to verify ACC sensor does not get blocked by the honeycomb on the lower grill.
They unfortunately had someone steal the wheels off three of their test cars, including the one that had the lower grill, so they have to get new wheels first.
I saw someone post a while back in a single post stating it did not work, but not sure if he had aftermarket or oem since it was posted before this kit came out.

Having looked through eBay and this thread, I’ve been unable to find a gloss lower grille only option. The closest I see is this offering on eBay which is an upper and lower. I’ve already modified my upper for a velossa tech so I don’t have a need for it. $180 for just the lower is probably foolish 
Anyone seen a gloss lower on its own?

I purchased the knock-off gloss black grilles from Amazon last year and have been slacking on installing them. When I saw FP come out with the M-8200-MBA kit I decided to go with them instead for OEM quality.
Went to install them this week and was super disappointed with the M-8200-MBA kit. They were packaged poorly, just loosely wrapped in some bubble wrap in a box that was way too big. The upper grille rubbed against the back of the lower grille and scraped up and gouged the lip where it meets the bumper. The paintwork was pretty poor with a ton of orange peel and spots where the paint was inconsistently applied.
The knock-off cheapo grilles had perfect paintwork with the only negative being that the honeycomb was slightly thinner than the OEM grille.
I ended up installing the knock-off grilles.

Shelby has an upper that has more open vents,
but not sure anyone wants to sport "Shelby" if it is not a Shelby? It is now funny that you can 100% duplicate a 2021 Shelby GT off the Shelby store now since they custom bumper cover is no longer used by Shelby (maybe why they sell the conversion at a "New lower price"
)
It however works well with those who have existing OEM lower grill (not ACC version) since the lines on the Shelby border line up. would probably look worse with an OEM lower Bullitt grill since it is flat black vs gloss, however maybe aftermarket flat black bullitt lowers and an uppper Shelby to get the wider cooling.

Nice! Did you do a chrome delete ? i see different colour where the Chrome sits. If so were you able to dismantle the chrome section off so that it makes prep work much easier?OEM Bullitt Upper w/ chrome modification, fits good!

Yeah I'm kinda digging this look as well. I'm torn between the Cervinis C Series upper and lower and this. However, I think this is a Bullett Upper Grille (with chrome delete) and a different chin splitter?OEM Bullitt Upper w/ chrome modification, fits good!
What all is on the front of this car?

Here you go.. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3837382654...9CWKqr2TlW&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
I decided not to purchase one because they are not gloss black. I found an OEM grille and then added mesh from customcargrills.com
