Tob, could you circle the wickers in the second pic ? I’m still a bit confused as to what part they are.

also, would they fit the facia of a 350?

@Tob Congrats buddy, I love the spec of white black roof. Safe travels, I’m looking forward to hearing about it all.
@13COBRA Impressive effort for customers, great to see good dealers are still out there. Would love to buy a Shelby from you soon. BTW, does Ford do Raptor leases?

They mount on the outboard ends and underside of the splitter and then rise and match the curvature or front fender radius.

Not sure if the factory ones would fit a GT350 but I think ZL1 Add-ons makes something along these lines that does.

Nick has been a solid good guy and extraordinarily professional. He worked hard to give a number of GT500 buyers a heck of a deal, including me. It was November of 2017 when he and I came to an understanding that would lead to an order for his dealership's lone GT500 allocation on July 1, 2019.

The hold placed on a number of GT500's, including mine, definitely made this one of the most "interesting" new vehicle purchases I've ever made. Ford left everyone hanging and seemingly had no intent to mitigate the issue with any semblance of speed. Nick cut through the swath of red tape, stopped the slow moving train that is FoMoCo and said enough, I'm taking two of these bad boys home with me - to start.

I'm flying out to Missouri Monday morning to meet up with Nick at his dealership, finally shake his hand, and hopefully leave in that shiny Oxford White beast and drive it back to NY. Nick has been great about all the details too. I asked that no plate holder be put on the front fascia (about 10 times:)), that they save any paperwork from the assembly line, etc. I originally wasn't going to have him put the splitter, wickers, or Gurney flap on. This might sound odd but I'm serious - temps will be a bit cool on the ~16 hr drive home and after thinking about it I want as much downforce as possible to produce as much traction as possible. So he got them on. And when I brought up how many dealers failed at installing splitters on GT350's (including my own '16) he knew exactly what I was getting at. When I randomly received these shots from him I could only smile. He listens.

Can't wait to step off the plane in Missouri.
Looks awesome!

Boy, that front splitter already looks low and doesn't look like lowering springs are in play to much to reduce the wheel gap.

Now let’s hope Nick is not forced to grab mine out of that yard

@PIPO
Rafael,
It looks like your car is the last Hostage car on the list that hasn't been delivered.
It might be a good time have a man to man talk with your dealer.
Good luck.

There was another batch of VINs released today, all of them were CFTP cars.
In the last 2 days there have been 83 new CFTP VINs issued.
