My advice is to not install it at all. Your Mustang will thank you.

If you just have to have it done, It should be professionally installed by someone that knows what they are doing, or no matter what it will never look right. Be very patient and do alot of research, if you attempt it yourself.

Its aftermarket fiberglass none of it ever fits perfect out of the box it takes time to make it fit good.So unless you know a body man good luck its gonna sting.

The guy that painted mine was doing an eleanor kit. Out of the box the pieces weren't close. It cost him $8K in work to get all the panels fitted correctly and to build up all the lines to have them flow. This was a high end car, but frankly without that work it wouldn't have looked like a professional job.

I spend a weekend on my Shelby style trunk and end caps and it didn't fit that bad at first.

Should I fiberglass in some studs to fasten the side scoops on, or just use adhesive?
