I always said i didn't like the silver on silver that the ST came with because it has the grey mesh with paint to match surround. So i managed to find a SE/SES grille with black mesh and the chrome surround.
And this is what i have been doing in my small amount of spare time this week

testing them out before locking them together

and bingo, TWO new grilles

I am putting the black mesh with the painted surround in because that is what i wanted, and the grey mesh from the other is a bit focked... it was like that (don't worry its not the one on my car) So now i have three grill options for my car stock, and the two new ones i have created.

Looks good, but is it the lighting or are the Ford emblems different shades of blue?
The one on the new chrome grille looks way darker...
