RE: How To: Install GT bumpers. Pics included!
So how much will the GT kit cost me in total. The only site that has the kit in its entirety is TheMustangHookUp.com but they dont have a price posted. Also how hard is it to install, I read the instructions a bunch of times and have them down pat, but I have never done bodywork in my life. I just dont want to do any damage to my Mustang. Thanks Guys!!!!!

Regarding the rockers and front facia. It's really easy. Spartan VI done a great job on this thread. I followed his instructions and had no problems. Only thing I changed was where he bolted the marker lights in place, I used 3/16 pop rivets. Just make sure you get all the other parts. The isolator and fender shields are a must. The deflector at the bottom is kinda up in the air. Spartan did not have his installed last I heard and he didn't see any adverse effects. I have mine installed and cant tell any difference. Happy modding.

Both websites sell the whole body kit you just have to call them for pricing.

Still don't have the deflector on. I haven't been able to find the right screws/retainers to mount it to the radiator mount. [&:]

Your pop rivets are probably better than my nuts and bolts.. I hope they never wiggle loose.. that'll be hell.

I'm waiting for a rear GT bumper in windveil blue to be in at v6mustangstuff. While I'm waiting for that, figured I should ask how I go about mounting the bumper. I, like others, have had no body work experience, and aren't very sure of myself lol. What size nuts and bolts did you use to re-attach and such? Oh and sorry if this isn't making since. It's 4:44AM.

I really wish I could tell you what size nuts and bolts I used, but we didn't think of taking note of them. We kinda just shuffled through through the wide selection my father had until we found ones that fit.
