Question 08/GT/CS Body kits???

Hello all!!! I just purchased a 08 GT/CS damaged and already have to replace the front and rear fascias ETC..... And was wondering where is the best place to buy body kits?? I already had a VERY BAD experience with Duraflex and will never buy that crap again. Any thoughts on style??? But I want the highest quality available. Thanks for any and all input....Thanks.........Jay...

Look at Americanmuscle.com
But you can also call your Ford dealer and see if they have replacement GT/CS front facia and rear.

Thanks for the quick reply. I kinda thought that something different (Hotter??) would also help with resale someday. I have seen some really hot looking ones on the road, and I kinda look back going WTF have they done to that!!! I am a Auto collision tech so I don't have to worry about some shop carrying my wallet around to get the kind of work I want. I saw a pic of A Eleanor kit somewhere and kinda liked that..

the GT/CS bumpers are some of the best looking out there. A Lot of people switch over to those,who want a subtle change in appearance. If you want a full blown body kit, I would go with Cervini's.

The Cervini kit is a beast, but sits very low so the side exhaust may get scratched easily. Look into Roush and Saleen; they're really popular too. A member here has the Cervini front fascia and Street Scene sideskirts and rear fascia, and it looks amazing.

Thanks for the replys... I went to blow by racing and could not find any parts/prices....All that keep coming up were Pics of customer cars...(NICE)...I am not sure that I want to alter the exhaust at this time. I need to buy the Front/Rear facias. And a Hood and right fender. I know that I could just go with stock parts, but with just under 18,000 miles I thought that since I am buying Parts why not kit it. I figured that when it came time to sell that (before miles got to high) the resale would be higher, am I wrong?? What about mix and matching is that a bad Idea??? Like I said I want to make sure that what I purchace is of good quality. Please keep the Ideas coming, I have a little time before I get to that point on the car. I just am trying to get all the advice/info I can.........Keep it coming.......THANKS AGAIN.....Jay
