Do you mean stylistically or fitment-wise ?
They look nothing like each other and the Freda has a dirty great Ford badge on it ...
as for fitting I'd guess they locate the same way but can't confirm that...

They are a different design but interchangeable.

. I think the Ford ones look better than the Mazda ones, but didn't look too closely at what would be involved in taking out the Ford badge. When I run out of other things to do (and I have a pretty long list at the moment so it won't be anytime soon!) I may try and get a couple of ford grilles and see if it would be possible to cut out the centre badge, then plastic weld straight slat sections from the second grille back in to have a de-badged front end but using the ford style grille.Re: Grill

I fitted a Ford grille. Removed the Ford badge, wrapped it in carbon wrap (the badge) and put it back in with a Mazdaspeed badge on top. Looks tidy.

That sounds like a nice easy idea, any photos?

This was my original grill a few years ago pimped and painted grill and badge.
