    ok, i've had the thing on for a while now but everytime i look at it, i look PAST it and into the sharp edges of plastic and radiator and all that other stuff in there... what i want is something to cover all that up but still flow air in there. Ive seen some mustangs with what seems to be a mesh back there or something, i just wanna know if anyone has done this to their car and can help me out, thanx

    a grill behind the grille delete, so you can't see the radiator i guess

    I think you are looking to much. The grill delete as it is is a
    nice piece. Remember to see that you have to get down low and
    look in. most people are not doing that. It's like when you get
    a small scratch on the car and everytime you look at the car you
    see it, only because you know itis there. No one else see's it.
    Relax about the grill delete. You could still be looking at the ugly
    honeycomb !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Just get a piece of mesh and cut it to fit as far back in there as you can. Preferably mesh that doesn't have a lot of holes as the usual ones, then paint it black and see what that looks like. It's just an idea.

    It soulds like you may have gotten one of those grill delete kits that only come with 2 parts; the pony and the black U-shaped piece in the front. The better kits also come with a black piece that goes behind the pony. If that is the case, I guess you could go to the Ford place and order the other piece (I think it would be worth it).

    As far as painting the AC condensor goes, I spritzed a light coat of flat black on it and it looks much better. I don't think it will drop the efficiency of the AC. I'll let you know when it turns 108 degrees "next week" here in Tejas.

    I thought the radiator looks cool. It almost looks like mesh.
