It can be done, but it won't fit without modification. You can either modify the car to make it fit or modify the intercooler/end tanks. The core is 30"x18"x2" with 4.5" end tanks (so a 39" width)

I managed to fit a 33"x22"x3" (core), but it required modifying the headlight bracket, radiator support, & impact absorbers. (no bumper). Now it's in my ranger & with it i had to modify the frame rails & ditch the whole radiator support for a custom setup.

And a 400hp mustang is? convertible at that...
Compared to every motorcycle built, no bumper still sounds safe to me.
