Thank you to everyone. yeah everyone has their own opinions and i shouldnt let it get to me.
In my first post i said that my car was missing something. Yes you found out what it was. I also said I was going with a custom APR Splitter that will cover the bottom of the whole front bumper and extend to a part of the radiator close to the k-member. Dont worry I have that covered 
fluid dynamics huh? is fluid dynamics the reason you omitted and/or deleted the front splitter from the GT500 conversion. I thought the front spoiler was designed and put there for a specific purpose. mite i add that it also enahnces the look and happens to be one of the cheapest parts in the gt500 conversion. hey dude, if you like it i love it, its your car...but if you post pics on a forum then your gonna draw critics, some ok and some not. thats my .2 cents you can keep the change ya dig!

Those TEIN coils, they 18 way or 32 way adjustable? Gas chambered I assume? Plan on lowering your car a bit more with the new wheels? if so, the overall appearance of your car ..new wheels with proper fitment and offset and lowered...wuod be greatly increased in my book. Thats just my opinion though.
Get er done man and do whatever makes ya happy!

its a twin tube design w/ Oil I think.
Its already lowered 2.2 rear and 1.7 front. If I get 19s with 35s then the overall diameter will be smaller and lower the car a bit more i think. I dont want to lower it more because it will probably scrape. I dont have that problem right now.

Where did you find all the parts for that price? Where they used or can i get the same deals?
Also, im not feeling the wing but i think with a big shorter pedestals and trimmed side diffusers or what ever there called it would look better.
Also any link to the apr splitter your referring too? it does look strange with out the chin on it

You guys get it all wrong...
The wing isn't rice at all and it's been used in racing for a long time before Yap mobiles on fart cans.
The RICE element comes to play when you put it on a street car that barely go over 90mph.
Doesn't have to be a Japmobile either...

Sweet lookin' front end. But that wing looks like it came off a Civic (ok, just fu**ing with you now...)! To be honest, your opinion is all that matters but you'll have to accept the fact that, when you post on the forum, you'd better put the ol' shields up and be prepared to take some hits.
Keep us posted as you do more. The front end is now your basis for the rest of the car to follow. You're on the right track.

Y don't you look up a few post and see the wing on the mustang Pascal posted. Does that look like a Civic to you?

Front end looks great. Strange to see the gt500 front w/o the splitter, but not in a bad way, just different. As for the wing isnt that that same wing that came factory on the Roush 427R trak pack?
