We need to get to it one of these days. Its too damn hot and we just get lazy and take our kids to the pool. But we gotta do it. You can even notice them on a black car.

CAn you just put the hood on a 2005 V6 Mustang without moding it or needing fron bumper and all other parts to convert whole front end?

I absolutely love this look, and I've read every post in this thread. Truly, awesome work all around guys.

I want to do this to my sixxer in the worst way, and I'm on my way to the dealership in a bit to talk to them to see if i can get the parts. I am a poster child for Murphy's Law, so I want to get all my ducks in a row before I do anything

So I have three questions
1) the fog lamps. I have a pony package right now, and I'm wondering do I still need to buy new fog lamps? I know you GT guys need to switch out because yours are bigger than ours.

2) How high off the road will this be? There's a few steep hills I need to cross on my commute, and while currently I don't scrape, I want to make sure I'm not just throwing the money away by switching up and then scraping it against the ground.

3) Mellow, I saw you mentioned a rivet gun would be handy for something, but I missed for what exactly (unless it was to re-rivet the turn signal). What was it for, and do I really need it?


Thanks a ton, and again, your cars look fantastic!!

Congrats 05. You're going to love the new look. Shoot me pix when done so I can add it to the "scrap book".
