Help me pick-a-grille

I'm not a fan of the FX4 one but I haven't been able to pick which to buy. I'm between the FX2, Carriage Works Horizontal Black Billet, Saleen, or a Grill Craft MX Series mesh grille in black.

We all know what the FX2 and Saleen grilles look like so I won't bother putting in pics. But here is the Carriage Works (it shows chrome but I want the black)



and here is the mesh one



What do you guys think? Anything else that may look good let me know!

Wow 2 for the FX4? I'm surprised. I am set on getting something different...even though keeping the FX4 would be cheaper. lol

I also like the FX4, but the Saleen would be my second choice.

i don't like billet grilles or mesh grilles. My favorite stock option is the FX4 or the PTM 'honeycomb'. I don't like after market grilles...

I really liked my Billett bolt overs for my factory FX4 grill. And matching bumper grill.

Having a bumper bumper grill was one of the reasons I went this route.

I have them for sale if your interested. I resently changed to an FX2 grill.

I like the truck in your sig, leave it alone IMO.

If you have to have one, get a black one like the first pic you posted.

That would look good to...

Or the one used on the Cragar F150's I think it's pretty much the same though.
