Hi, I just recieved my GT/CS from the painter Friday (boy what a beautiful car it is) but I had a quick question. On the front end, I know that the grill is blacked out but is the area around the grill that is normally chrome on a normal Mustang, is that supposed it be chromed or blacked out? We have to send it back to the painter (he put the stripes on wrong) and if it's supposed to be blacked out I would have him black it out. Any response would help. If you need pics about where I'm talking about that would be great.

shelby guy-
i assume you are talking about the grille mouldings that sit in front of the grille.
the (flat) moulding pieces, as well as the center piece, and lucas pedestals are also painted the same "dark grey metallic" color as specified for the grille. the raised "chrome" trim on the flat mouldings remain, and are not painted.
tip- if you have the lucas lamps, and the holes aren't in the stone deflector yet (for the lucas mounting bolts), drill them out before mounting everything to the front end.
hope this helps.
