I'll be taking the bumper off my new car in the next couple days to install my ZL1 add ons license plate holder/tow hook bracket. Now I saw a Mach 1 earlier out and about and I really really like the grille on them. Y'all think it would be as easy as just ordering the grille from Ford and swapping out on a GT?

I think you'll need the whole front bumper. My understanding is the grill itself is shaped different.
gawddamit. I thought it looked like it was the same... has anybody confirmed?

I'd love to be wrong to have a Mach1 bumper and Bullitt chrome grill.

seems to be that they are the same shape for the upper grille. might have to get my hands on one.

Looks like a less steep curve up on the bottom right edge than the bottom left edge. Maybe the angles, but different looking.

While it seems plausible that ford might change the grille shape... I highly doubt they went through that much trouble. The grilles from the first Gen s550 where all interchangeable except the GT350. I feel this is the same case for the Mach1.

Go through what trouble? They have a whole new bumper unique to the car and thatā€™s the only thing it mates with. Plus, since the grill is a new mold tool anyway, it isnā€™t saving them anything by not changing the profile. See the pics. Itā€™s straight on and you can clearly see the difference.

Too bad, as Iā€™d love one for my ā€˜19.

Head on like this really points out to me how bad the splitter bolted to a splitter look is. I wish someone would just make a single unit.
