Jesus!! How many lights do you really need? Are you going to race your GT in the Baja?

Sorry...I can't read.

The only other problem that people seem to miss is that the headlights are slightly different on the GT500. Look at the top inside on each light and compare it to a GT. As you can see, they are slightly slanted more inward than the GT. You might as well go to Ford and order the whole nose section.

Yea. If I were gonna go thru the trouble of getting the GT500 nose on my GT (if thats even possible), I'd get my pony emblem mounted back in center grill. The big cartoon cobra emblem would have to go.

nothsa - that car is sexy. if i ever get a stang i would definitely go with a black one and that grill would probably be my first visual mod.

the front fascia on the gt500 is nice and it does make the car look more aggressive but whats the point? why not spend all that money on headers, axle backs and cams. the sound is the most aggressive part of the car after all.

a setup like that could make small children cry. now thats cool.

Lest we forget, young padawans........that to do a proper GT500 frontend, you'll need the GT500 hood also.

Negative grasshoper, the stock Mustang hood will work just fine.

Yes.........it can be done with the stock hood. But if you want it done right, the GT500 hood is needed. It completes the look of the frontend. I think it looks a little awkward with the stock hood.

If you want the complete Shelby look, yes you need the Shelby hood. I like the shelby bumper but thinking of getting the Hertz hood or keeping the stock hood. To me it looks more agressive
