Default GT500 Front Fascia Conversion - Parts List

The following list details the parts necessary to perform the GT500 front fascia conversion. When reading this post, realize that your existing Mustang fascia may or may not have fog lights, and you must carefuly investigate any wiring harness issues you may encounter. For this post, it is assumed that you have the Mustang GT with fog lights located in the upper radiator grille.

NOTE 1: The only item needed from the GT500 wiring harness is the female connector for the new fog lights. The necessary female connector may or may not be avaialbe as a separate Ford part. If not, then you’ll need to purchase the GT500 wiring harness and cut off the needed adapter. DO NOT install the GT500 wiring harness, as it does not match all the vehicles connections.

NOTE 2: The front half of the driver and passenger inner wheel well guards are not identical for the GT500 and GT. It may be possible to alter the stock GT wheel well guards to fit the holes on the new GT500 bumper and lower valence. I chose to purchase the GT500 guards since they were approximately $30 combined. If you do not purchase the GT500 trim pieces, and do not alter the stock trim, your valence will be unsecured in this location.

**PM me if you have any questions, perhaps I can help.

Yes you need different headlights. See how the pillars next to the headlights are slanted inward some? The regular GT/V6 headlights are pretty much straight up and down.

I got mine for $1150 from www.fordpartswebsite.com (although I opted not to include the chin spoiler) I think the chin spoiler is about $50.

I have seenthe conversionfor sale before for near $2000.

Expensive is a relative term that each of us justifies differently.

theres no luggage rack onhearse!!they wont bury your money with you.
i like the looks of the 500 front end. its one of the key design features that turned me on to our new body style when the concept car was first shown a few years ago.

It is a conversion worth the money. You dont need the front inner fenders as it is just a simple trim to make the GT ones fit, and if you have a V6, well, they are the same part # as the GT500 (they both use the same piece). The wiring harness is also unnecessary as you can get couple of small speaker type connectors for a couple of bucks and you are good to go. The hardware you can pick up from Home Depot, 2" bolts with nuts and 1" washers.
