Ugh I wanted to, but its just not possible. Nothing I can do. I'm still waiting on the turbo kit.
The grilles mount to the bumper so now that the bumper is different the mounting points are diff.
Yes, but some of my hardware was reused and not needed. Regarding the nuts and bolts of it, it's real tough. I'm going to post up the part numbers for the brackets you need and so on though. There's a L and R bracket you need, the foam piece behind bumper, bumper cover, upper/lower grilles/, fogs (come with bulbs), harness extensions (only to be used with halogen bulbs otherwise you dont need them), and hood.

Are the fenders the same as the GT?

That's good to know! Thanks!
Total cost?
I might have missed it, did u already have the HIDs or did u have to buy them too?

Nice
That came out great!!! Still like the 2010-12 grill a little better but I think the blacked out emblem works well with your theme.
ehhh, I spent around $3500 with everything. Yes I had HID headlights already. I added the HID kit for the fogs.

How much did you get the grilles and lip(spoilers) for???
About $370 for upper and lower grilles.
About $280 for the lips.
Obv they only work with the gt500 front bumper
cant afford a gt500 now you make your car a fobra lol same thing happen in 03-04
I CHOSE not to afford one. This was my first american car and wasn't sure how it was gonna go. Next time around I'll go all out
My God that looks nice! Congratulations!!!!
Steve, your conscious effort to ensure the car isn't perceived as an attempt to make it into something it will never be is admirable. I have a GT500 but never liked having the silly badging/stripes plastered all over the car and thus removed them. I'd rather flaunt from within, if necessary, than with what I consider superficial window dressing.
You're doing it right. Aesthetically, the car has definitely improved. Good luck with the upgrades you have in mind for more power.

Thank you very much. I've always been a fan of keeping things clean. I've always been the type to remove lettering and badges and so on. Having that snake badge on the front really did grind my gears but it was a sacrifice for the front end I wanted. I as well would rather have a 1000whp car with no badging, letters or anything on it.
pictures of your car?
first page???
