Looks great!!!

Is this an all new grill or modified factory?

If all new can you make it so it seals to airbox inlet for a ram air effect?

I modified the factory grills to make these Prototypes for proof of concept. The production units will either be core exchange or complete new units, that has yet to be determined. And yes, it can be made to be "ram air".

Looks pretty good. Almost exactly like the '65 grille. IMO a factory style honeycomb grille without the pony would look a thousand times better though.

Any chance we could get a pic standing back from the car?
Definitely need to see it from a little farther away.

Nice! Do you need the grill to be as restrictive as the stock one ? I though it wasn't totally open because it would cause the front to lift too much. Oh and would love to see the Tribar on the side.. As well as a V6/ECOBOOST version
This was a huge problem when the '05 came out and I suspect it's the real purpose of the hood vents on the '15.

That's how a front intake grill should look! Very functional! :thumbsup:

Very Nice job! :cheers:

Would it look better if you painted the radiator fins black or would that affect the performance of it?
You could use black radiator paint. I have done it multiple times and even used it on intercoolers.

Front end is not on permanent guys. Don't worry.

I'll allow it. I see brake cooling ducts coming from this too.

The lower is ready for the ducting. I just need to weld up my backing plates and run the tubes.

I like this as well... I'd like to keep the original grill and have a whole new one like this to put in and swap the old one in for resale value.
