RE: Eleanor vs. GT 500 Your Opinion
ORIGINAL: vaporGT
Hey guys,
I wanted to get everyone's opinion on whether I should get the Eleanor Kit for my 2008 vapor mustang GT or the GT 500 parts to do the conversion. I'm leaning more towards the Eleanor because even though the GT 500 is gorgeous, I think after installing the parts I'm going to feel like a fake. With the Eleanor I'll have a great looking car and still have the power to back it up. I dont think ill be getting the side scoops or the side exhaust because it becomes a little too childish and also... the mustang sound should not be wasted flowing out the sides hahah. But definitely the front bumper and any other parts to make it a smooth transition.
Anyway, please throw in your input and maybe any pics if you got.
thanks everyone.

I love this question~!
I have a car that has the Cervini's getup on it, and personally~?
I love the car!! She looks soooo smooth and sexy....I get compliments after compliments every time I take the car out. I have people take pictures and ask me "now....what kind of mustang is this, exactly?!?"
With that being said....my heart has always admired the GT500.....I think that is one fine ride. I think the looks are gorgeous, but for me what makes that car so nice is what it represents.....the legendary character and driven nature of Carroll Shelby.
Either way, your car will look great. Let us know what you decide.......

Well For the longest time I wanted to get the Full Cervinis C series kit, but changed my mind yesterday to do something a little more understated but here was my plan to change it up a little.
Anything Cervinis is C series-
Cervinis Front Bumper w/ grilles
Cervinis Hood
Cervinis C pillar scoops
Saleen Side Skirts
Street Scene Gen 1 spoiler
Roush Rear bumper w/ square tips
For wheels I wanted to get 20" Shelby CS 69's
I thought that would look sick and be a little different. Not a big fan of the side exhaust and it is really expensive. So that was my plan good luck with your decision.
