Default Anyone purchased any of these Foose parts?

I have found the hood and sppiler already and I have been looking for the Foose front bumper and side skirts to complete the package (I plan to use a GT/CS rear bumper. i was wondering if any of you guys have purchased any of these parts before:

http://shop.ebay.com/sis.html?_kw=Fo...STANG+GT+FOOSE

I am very dubious of this auction, it appeakrs that these are just ray parts from the mold. none of the openings are even cut out. I have been consideirng just using a Saleen front bumper, it looks a lot like the Foose one to my eyes. what do you guys think?

Those are indeed from the original molds, but the molds from the original prototype, and the side skirts are about 1" lower than the factory Stallion side skirts. I have the factory Foose skide skirts and rear bumper, and with the Eibach Pro kit, I am 4.5" off the ground. I would be at about 3.5" with those....too low for the street.

The factory ones are not a solid piece, but two pieces at the bottom (and another piece taped to the door). I got them from Quantum Tecstar, who made the molds originally for Unique Performance. There are no more parts to buy from them, and they sold their stock to Classic Design Concepts. I don't know if they have anyhting more than spoilers and window scoops though.

The parts in those Ebay auctions are only cast on the front side, and there is no way to attach the parts to the body. You need to fabricate some kind of brackets if you intend to use them.
