Thought this was an interesting find.
What do you think of it?

I dunno - I have so little imagination - I think I would have to see it on a vehicle to decide ifn I liked it or not. In general, I like the badgeless look though.

The chrome would look terrible on an MM.
Color matched I think it would look fine though.
I have seen that grille on a couple of the CVB cars in my area.
Now I know where it came from.

I've been working on making my own badgeless grille. I like the honeycomb look and found this material that suited my needs. It's still not finished, but I hope it looks as good as I hope it will. The plan is to paint the grille frame body color, and plastidip the grille mesh.

As was said...probably not in chrome...body color might work out.
I like your project though...bet it turns out great.
I painted the surround of my badgeless grille body color and left the verticals black...like that look at least for now.

Looks like they're available on ebay already painted black.
You think they would fit Grand Marquis and Marauders?

And ... Will not fit a Grand Marquis or a Marauder without a header panel swap.

And IMO the ONLY Crown Victoria badgeless grille design is Sanco's .....

Combining the two Marauder grills to make a badgeless is the way to go IMO.
Looks like a Lincoln town car grille.

Headlights aren't too bad...think it needs some Buick portholes in the grille...:P
