i say go with the gt/cs rear fascia, looks like the gt500 and is a lot cheaper.
i do prefer the heritage over both, but damn that thing is pricey.

i considered the gt/cs rear fascia but the thing is i want the black bumper guard portion of the bumper to go all the way around instead of being just at the back portion of the bumper.

personally I like the saleen but for $750 I'd say go with the GT500 it will save you a little money but not much

If you're looking to be unique, get the Saleen kit. You will get many more looks because of the license plate relocation.

i just got my GT/CS bumper painted and installed. only the middle part on the back comes painted black but the plastic is textured all the way around, so i just had them extend the black paint. looks just like a GT500 bumper. I'll have some pics up tommorow of it
