I've decided to use a Saleen Grille but notice there is a place for a rectangular insert. Is there a place that sells a variety of inserts?

Thanks guys,

Hoping to knock out a few build list items with the ol' tax return!

Gotcha, I guess eBay inventories are low right now. I'm not really sure of what I want and figured i'd see something cool.

Did you replace your fog lights in your CS fascia? I've heard the factory ones are junk but don't know of a worthy replacement.

Thats the saleen grill with the stock GT fogs. The saleen grill has 2 already made cutouts that position the lights perfectly. I used the bracket that mounted the stock foglights to the stock GT grill. I cut off one leg of it that wasnt needed, then bought a $5 piece of aluminum to make a simple bracket to bolt to the current bracket.

The passenger side foglight harness either needs to be extended, or you must remove the plastic piece from inside the engine bay that is stopping the harness wires from feeding through further.
Was a easy project, and I like the look. The foglights fit nicely under the engine/hood shroud. I believe I took some pictures of the bracket and other stuff while I was doing it if you are interested.

I went a different route. I basically used a dremel to modify the back of the grille so that the mounting bracket would fit but in hind sight, if I were doing it again, I'd have simply gone to home depot, bought a longer strip of metal and made a new bracket that would fit the deeper bars of the grille.

This crude illustration shows in the top left the original dilemma and to the right, my fix (which you can't tell that any modifications were made unless you get up close and look behind the badge.

Below that is what I should have done in hindsight.
