Ok, so would I need to install that splash shield if I plan on getting an aggresive lip spoiler from cdc later? And wouldnt a stock GT grill plug into my pony package harness? Scratch that, I have the whole harness and bulbs still, shouldnt I be able to put the bulbs in the GT grill?
It funnels the air that enters thru the lower grill up to the AC evaporator
and radiator. Without it the air just goes on under the vehicle causing
front end lift at highway speeds. Not good.
Yes, you can use the PP wiring harness. Just remove the PP fog light
adapter/extentions.
The GT fogs use different bulbs and housings than the PP grill so thats
a big NO.

This is a common mod.. search function would help you, but here's an excellent "copy/paste" from another forum member who did a great job of explaining:
Check out this thread https://mustangforums.com/m_1121391/tm.htm it explains everything.
Here is a list of additional parts you will need:
-Foam Bumper isolator: 5R3Z-17C947-BA
-Splash Shield: 5R3Z-17626-BA
-Both Fender Liners: 5R3Z-16102-BA and 5R3Z-16103-BA
-Screws: N801169-S900 You will need 8 screws all together (2 packs)
-Nuts: W705992-S441 You will need 3 nuts all together (1 pack)
Just a hint- When installing the splash sheild that mounts under the radiator, The square shaped nuts (W705992-S441) have to be snapped into the bottom of the lower radiator support before the splash sheild is in place. There are small square shaped cut out already in place from the factory, the nuts just snap in place. Hold the splash shield in place to make sure you snap the nuts into the correct holes. Then use the screws (N801169-S900) to mount the sheild. It sounds complicated but it isn't. You will see what I'm talking about when you are under the car. If I remember correctly you will only use 7 of the 8 screws that you will need to order from Ford, so don't be worried if you have one left over.
To wire up your fog lights you will need the street scenes wiring harness. http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku I recommend taking the GT grill out of the bumper before you install it. That way you have room to plug the wiring harness into the fog lights. If you try to install this while the grill is in place you won't have much room and you will probably have to unsnap it from some of its mounts to give you a bit more room.
This is an easy install. Don't be intimidated by it. I suggest using ramps or jack stands to get the front of the car off the ground because it makes things a bit easier.

. Just take those part numbers to the parts desk at your local stealership and they will order the parts for you or as already suggested, call Clevanger Ford. This is an easy mod!
