    If it was identical a ton of us would be running them. But with work you can literally get anything to work.

    I'm almost positive the lights ("sport lamps") in the grille are the same, and I'm pretty sure the grid pattern is nearly the same if not identical, but that's where the similarities end.

    if they look so much alike why wouldn't you just use a Maverick grille? it's not like they are scarce... There are quite a few on Ebay right now and while I didn't do any extensive checking I would think the Maverick Grille would be as cheap if not cheaper than one for a Mustang of that popular of a year....
