Default take off parts running out

I ordered my GT grille/front fascia last month, and my gt painted rockers yesterday...
Ive noticed that many colors are no longer available, i cant find a torch red rear bumper anywhere... I was talking to ninosport yesterday, he says that there should be more in as the 09 models are modded by companies like roush... I figure that they wont make too many of them as 2010 is a new design year, i figure they will invest more in 2010 than 09... so if youve been considering take off parts for your 2005-2009 stang, youre running out of time...

Hopefully the rear ends, brakes, wheels, and mufflers will still fit our cars when 2010 models are released...

any thoughts?

Good observation! I was thinking the same thing as I have
been trying to find a Redfire GT rear bumper for months now.
All takeoff vendors either sold out when I checked or nothing
showing. I was on lists at each vendor but found a cheap
GT rear bumper locally on Craigslist, not my color but will
repaint. All who are going to upgrade, suggest also that you
plan on it soon.

think about it though, things will get cheaper for us as the demand for newer parts increase.

Hopefully the x charger will come down in price. That's the next thing on my mod list. But I don't think I can wait any longer, I want it now.

Yea the 2010 rear end stuff should work with our current S197. If i heard it correctly, Ford is using the current GT500/Bullit shocks, struts, sway bars on the 2010 GT Mustangs and the 2010 V6 stangs will have the same setup on those parts as the current GT Mustangs

Yea, brakes and such will be the same.
There is a big write-up about the new 2010
mustang in this months HotRod magazine.
It will basically have the fuel curves as the
Bullitt and sport 315HP on premium fuel.

http://www.hotrod.com/featuredvehicl...res/index.html

The antenna, previously on the front fender, is now much shorter and relocated to the rear of the 2010 Mustang.
"Throughout this Mustang, we've introduced modern twists like integrated technology, LED tail lamps and HID head lamps, efficient packaging and better proportions."
Another inherited and distinctly identifiable Mustang cue comes in the form of the tri-bar tail lamps. The three individual red chambers, each lit sequentially by a single Luxion LED, are separated by two clear vertical back-up elements, ensuring the tri-bar look is recognized in lit or unlit conditions. The sequential illumination of each chamber is a unique and important characteristic of the 2010 Mustang's identity.
