Why do some 05-09 Mustang GT's backside look wider than others?

This really bothers me. Some of the backs of Mustang GT's(05-09) Appear to look wider than others, which I don't like?

Different packages have different bumpers (GT, GT/CS, GT500)

Swapping rear bumpers is fairly cheap and easy.

Common thing to do. Stock, GT500, Roush, California Special, and then 5 billion bodykit aftermarket lines...

Color and blackout panels play with the eyes and brain.

"Honey, does my *** look big in this bumper style and color?"

Tires and wheels help with that too.

Are you asking us if you don't like?
