Default RE: SALEEN GRILL DELETE

I sent this to the guy who sent it out to me. What a PIA!

Update: Thanks for fast shipping. I installed this on a 2000 Ford Mustang GT(Saleen). What a pain in the A**. First off.Your instructins are not accurate.
1) Those are 4 screws holding the grill on the bottom it is very difficult to get them out.They are not a 9/32 socket they are phillip screws.

2) Do Not put the horse on until you are done with step 7. reason why ...stay tune.

3) You have to make the holes larger where the orginal grill was installed so you can get the u shape piece to fit. I had to drill them larger because the 4 snaps would not insert into the 4 holes in my urthean front bumper. If the horse is on you cannot drill.

The two lips where the two screws at the top of the u -shape peice do not fit, there is a gap because it does not sit flush. It works but it works poorly.

You also do not mention taking those screws out in step 2.

I was very un-happy with how it installed and wanted to get your feedback before I submitt my remarks..
Thanks

s281er, I have a pic of grill delete in my gallery. I love it, but is a pain in to get the old one out. I would either remove the facia, or just accept that you will have to destroy the existing honeycomb grill to remove it.

No, thats the new Porter Cable 6969 polisher. Just lift up the legs to start the polishing. They do have a defect though, if your 6969 polisher passes wind, it can scorch the paint [:'(]
