aftermarket billet style grill

fire235 · 03-22-2002, 12:44 PM

Does anybody know of any company carrying a custom grill for 65 mustangs? I'm looking for a grill that would be similiar to the shelby grills that had the lines that went straight across. Nice clean look. Thanks guys.

Try this, take a stock 66 grill and clean it up and re-paint it black then use steel wool and pollish off the paint on the front of the ribs. This will give you shiny horizontal lines across and otherwise blacked out grill. I have seen a few cars done this way and like the way it looks, plus it is cheaper than a custom grill.

I think Shelby just used standard grills and changed the emblems. New ones are not expensive from the Mustang parts suppliers.
