Default Steeda MACH 1 grill delete

URGH!

Well first off, I really like how it looks, second off, WTF, I am writting them a nice long letter. One, I have never seen something so small come in a 5 foot box. Explain that one seriously.

The kit from Steeda is good qaulity, however, it doesn't come with instructions and it doesn't come with mounting hardware, leave you figuring it out.

Who else has installed one of these? Pictures? Want to talk about pain in the nuts, trying to get the stock grill off, yes you try fitting that 7/29s on those lil screws. What a joke that is.

Then you gotta figure out how to mount the grill delete. I did mine in the dark, and since it took way longer than I excepted, 2 1/2hrs and lots of me curssing, I'll have to take some pictures tomorrow when I tighten a few bolts.

Anyone else install this? Or think about it?

Its a nice look opposed to stock, but god dang.

It's September now.....and I just put one on my 03 V6....I agree with EVERYTHING you said. It was a pain! I got some hardware and some horrible instructions.

I felt like I was jimmy-rigging it to fit on my stang. Also, I don't know if it was because I have a V6 or what, but my stang didn't come with the black grille backing that kinda hides the radiator. So in the day time it looked like crap! Everything was exposed...and it was stainless steel that had remnants of the paint job in random areas. So I took the grille delete back off, masked off the whole front of my car except for the grille frame...and spray painted it black. I also put a screen behind the frame to protect the radiator. With all said and done, it looks gorgeous! Just more work than I expected.
