Types of 1999-2004 Ford Mustang Grilles
Your Sn95 Mustang comes with a cool-looking grille from the factory, even if you’re rocking the V6. Most trim levels and engine sizes come with a classic honeycomb-style grille that works well enough, so if you just want to swap out a worn-out grille plenty of OE-style options are available when you shop online.
While honeycomb grilles tend to be popular, they're not the only option, and changing your 1999-2004 Ford Mustang grille can instantly improve the curb appeal of your vehicle. One of our favorite examples is swapping out the classic honeycomb-style grille with a more modern billet-style stainless steel grille. These grilles don't have honeycombs and use straight lines instead to maximize airflow while still keeping debris out of the engine bay. Plus, they look awesome and complete other aftermarket mods, like hood scoops and headlights, very well.
Not only can you swap out the style of the grille but you can also choose Ford Mustang grilles from different trim levels. After all, if you’re not the first owner it's not your fault that they don't make SVT Cobras anymore, is it? Whatever your motivation, you can swap out the pony badge for the classic SVT/Shelby Cobra snake or delete the pony altogether. Benefits of Upgrading Your 1999-2004 Ford Mustang Grilles If you’re sitting there looking at your 1999 Ford Mustang grille and thinking: “What does this even do?” We totally understand because it may just seem like a simple accent piece that's slapped onto the front of your vehicle to mount that classic pony. While we admit that they look good, your grille does a lot more than improve your vehicle’s appearance. Plus, you'll likely have to go aftermarket anyway because grille design is really important to you because the OE-style options aren't always that great.
One of the first benefits you notice when you upgrade your 1999-2004 Ford Mustang grille is that your engine will breathe better. It'll be easier for heat to escape the engine bay and that can improve horsepower and fuel efficiency. What's more, upgrading your grille can prevent your vehicle from overheating, especially if your old one is covered in rust or debris.
Another benefit of upgrading your Ford Mustang’s grille is engine safety. The last thing you want is a rock flying through the grille and damaging your radiator or cooling fan. Fortunately, upgrading your grille can help you keep your engine even more secure. Whether you need a specific 1999 Ford Mustang grille or you just need an OE-style replacement, our sales techs are ready to help you find the right fit for your build.
