It's an mp concepts grille no lights or funky stuff, gloss black with the corner intake areas open no grille. Cost is 149.00 usd. I had the s550 version on my 19 hopefully the same or better quality.

just a question what is the difference between the rtr and stock lower corner grilles they look the same to me and definitely not worth what rtr is asking.

The biggest and most notable change is gloss black hex-mesh on the stock vs matte black pill-mesh on the RTR

Thanks its hard to see from just the picture of the part on website what they look like. looks like the shape is different as well. The passenger side being blocked makes sense that's where the washer fluid tank is and i believe the ecm.

Getting closer but the “weave pattern” looks fruity still.

Just received mine yesterday along with the MP Concepts chin splitter. Splitter went on fine, but either the GT and Ecoboost clip locations are slightly different or I got a bad batch sent to me, because the grille couldn't clip in at all, each slot was off by a half inch. Going to return it and probably avoid grille replacements for a while, was not the easiest install for a beginner.

Thanks for the update. May have been a bad piece or they really messed up that bad. I mean it can only go in one way. How's the lip spoiler look Got any pictures. I saw it on American muscle but it looks kind of off. I'm tired of all the carbon fiber parts and people charging carbon fiber prices for abs parts. The RTR one looks good but its 650 dollars if you want to install it right. You need the under pan extension or its really floppy and it has QC issues as well.

There's a photo of the grille fitting on a GT in a review, so it does work, but I might lean towards the spots not being aligned correctly when it was being made.

Haven't gotten the bottom tray reinstalled yet, was working late to just get front back on but here's a quick Pic of it when it was off. The chin splitter matches the sorta textured feel of the OEM splitter and bumper, but the look might not be for everyone. Also I don't believe it lowers the front chin clearance too much, maybe just an inch or so.

Thjat looks good. The website pictures are as i though crap and have no background in which to gauge the size and feel of the design

Hey, if you're interested in lowering the clearance - I have an LVA splitter that is for the 2024 GT with RTR splitter installed already. It goes underneath RTR splitter and replaces or takes place of thr RTR undertray extension if you also have or wanted that part. I am selling for way under retail as I totaled my 2024 before having the opportunity to install and it's taking space in my garage. If you're not interested, maybe someone reading this is and will take advantage of my brand new mod sitting in the garage not getting any use. The LVA part is specifically made for speed and not just for looks. The LVA team makes parts to help shave track or drag times! Dm for answers to any questions you may have! Sorry for highjacking your post, you may return to regularly scheduled comments! Drive safe, stay dangerous!

Where'd you get that PP2 style splitter?

looks good, I bought the RTR one when there were only a couple of splitters on the market. The stuff MP concepts is coming out with is great for the price
Agreed, early on I was checking almost every day just to see if anyone new aftermarket parts went up because most of them were the high-end brands or carbon fiber parts that were too pricey. I just kept holding out and now it seems the aftermarket is waking up with the new Dark Horse bumpers and different spoiler options. Looking forward to seeing what else comes out soon.
