Yeah, Tasca does have good OEM prices. I've ordered parts for my Mustang thru them a few times.

Installed the Raptor grill, left the marker lights out. Looks better just all black IMO.




Also installed door pillar vinyls from American Truck, definitely a good under $50 mod if you have the patience. It came out alright for a first time DIY vinyl application. I recommend getting the standard vinyl install kit as well. It comes with a Microfiber towel, a snap blade utility knife, a squeegee with a soft fabric side and regular side, and the cleaning/application solution. Both shipped were a little over $50 and that includes shipping.
