Has anyone seen this grille?

TheUNZippee! · August 22nd, 2007, 10:45 AM

Last night while googling around trying to find a pic for another member here, I came across this car. It's from Mustang Racing Technologies, and I've checked their website and can't seem to find the inserts, both lower & upper. Am I blind? Help a brother out willya. lol

I think this is one of the baddest looking S197's I've seen so far. Prolly number 2 or 3 on my list. Yes, Emay, yours is #1. Settle down brother. lol

That's cool lookin, I like the embossed pony center of the upper insert.

The bottom is either a Chin spoiler/overlay or an entire bumper. Can't really tell.

Keep my eye out for anything, but have no clue where these items can be found.

Thanks man.

HMUSN · August 22nd, 2007, 11:22 AM

I have to say that looks pretty bad ass.

TheUNZippee! · August 22nd, 2007, 11:24 AM

Yeah, the only thing I might change are the knockoff spinners. But I love that front end. It's odd that it's an MRT car, but I can't find those parts on their site.

its no so much a grill... as it is the absence of one... just my $.02

TheUNZippee! · August 22nd, 2007, 11:25 AM

Yeah almost like tinted plexi or some shit like that.

texas_mustang · August 22nd, 2007, 11:27 AM

yea, but i wouldnt put that on my car, a rock to the radiator is not good news.

TheUNZippee! · August 22nd, 2007, 11:29 AM

It's a solid sheet of plastic, how is it hitting the rad? Please splain'

texas_mustang · August 22nd, 2007, 11:32 AM

oh wait, its a piece of plastic? i thought it was just open. and if its a solid piece of plastic, wouldnt you have heat issuse with not getting enoguh air?

TheUNZippee! · August 22nd, 2007, 11:44 AM

I would imagine that the lower portion has some sort of design incorporated in to it to duct air up to the radiator.

I'm about to leave for work, but I'll definitely be looking in to all this when I get back.

Zip,

I found this on seriouswheels:

http://www.seriouswheels.com/cars/to...nterceptor.htm

looks like the grill may be an entire delete in the open area. The exterior specs are about half way down the page..

Here's pics of the car in an all black get up, seems the car has been changed from the sema version, to the performance revision and so on. Notice the embossed pony is moved to the driver side here-

Wow, Emay, nice find. Bookmarked. Thanks a million man, you rock.

Credit card will be getting a workout when I get home next week, methinks. lol

It looks great but I'd prefer some air to hit my radiator for cooling purposes.

Like I say, I would have to imagine they have designed it so that air gets to the rad. It almost looks like maybe air gets through the bottom part somehow...hard to tell from that pic. I'll check it out when i get home.
