Default New Eleanor Grill Installed
My beautiful wife bought me an "eleanor" style grill from Stack Racing for my birthday and we installed it over the weekend. I wasn't sure about how it would look at first, but now that it is on I really like it. Install only took about 15 minutes.

Man, that looks good. I like the chrome accent. I think a chin spoiler would set it off. JMO

Very nice... I just put one of those on mine. Of course, my front clip is still sitting on the floor of my garage.

I am very grateful to have a wife that is so into Mustangs!

I think a chin spoiler would be a nice next step. Better start leaving hints around the house for Christmas!

Billy it's a 5 minute job if you pull the bumper cover. Imagine a little tougher if you don't.

We were able to install the new grill in about 10 minutes with just a regular screw driver. After you pop the hood, you first remove the 6 or 8 plastic pins holding on the radiator cover. Then there are 2 clips on each side and 4 on the bottom of the stock grill. These take a little finessing to keep from breaking the tabs. Last step is unplugging the fog lights.

Remove the fog lights from the stock grill, plug in the fog light extensions and reverse the steps above to install the new grill.
