Exclamation Crashed! Need help...

Sup guys, so last week I was driving home after a 14 hr work day. I drive a 2008 GT. I was tired and really looking forward to relax at home. Well I was 2 blocks away from my house when this kid was speeding down the street and hit me. He hit my car behind the passanger rear tire and now my car is in the shop.

I wanted to ask where can I get a GT/CS rear bumper? I've been checking out some sites but I dont see it anywhere...

Also I've decided that since my car is already in the shop, I might as well get all the other mods I've been saving up for... I wanna go with the Roush front fascia, GT/CS rear bumper, SHR flush louvers, headlight spliters, and side scoops.

So my other question would be... Which website do you guys recommend to purchase this stuff?

Thanx in advance!

I honestly don't know about the GT/CS rear bumper, you'll have to take that one up with google/ebay/craigslist. However with the rest of your purchase I would recommend...

Probably Roushperformance.com for the front fascia, as they paint parts to match.
SHR Louvers, I'm not sure where you can get them painted but American Muscle has them.
As for the side scoops and headlight splitters, American Muscle offers both of those parts painted.

I would recommend you buy as many parts as you can pre-painted, because I see you drive a metallic red Mustang, which is probably the hardest colour for body shops/painters to match.

Here is a relatively cheap and unpainted product that resembles the CS bumper, but it's not the real thing and it needs paint.

The CS bumper is a Ford part, so get it from Ford. Something interesting to know, Ford offers it 2 ways... as a collision replacement which is just the skin, and as an accessory kit which includes small brackets and such... surprisingly the accessory kit is CHEAPER than just the replacement skin.

On another mustang board there is a Ford dealer that has helped a ton of ppl with the CS swap (and full gt500 front fascia)... try giving him an email clevparts@aol.com FYI, he may be a bit slow to respond at the moment, his son is fighting cancer and of course family comes first. http://forums.themustangsource.com/s...d.php?t=482124

No that's the bumper cover, you want the bumper accessory kit. Part # 6R3Z-6320049-AA. Like this one for $320 http://www.primepartssuperstore.com/...catalogid=3792

That's a GREAT PRICE on the SHR Louvers! Especially if it's painted!
