Did you paint them on the car?
Remove them totally?
Or
Just unbolt them and hang them with a coat hanger or something so you could get the back done?

(P.S I'm thinking of painting mine red as I have a black GT)

Thanks for the quick reply!
That's what I am going to do.

I was going to spring for the Bullitt kit but I don't think it will fit under my stock 17 inch Bullitt wheels and then there is
the mini-spare tire as well.
I'm still researching that one.

my buddy just did this swap. your 17 bullitts are fine(thats what came on a bullitt) and as far as the spare,in the rare event you need it you could put a rear wheel on the front and then the mini on the rear.-just a thought.
