Luckily, you do not have to get that part. You can simply take a razor blade and shave off the top portion of the one you have already. The part that says "V6" on it can be shaved down to flush with the rest of the foam... i dont have a picture, but trust me, i did it and it works fine. that's the only difference in the V6 and the GT foam isolators: the gt doesn't have the ridge in it that the V6 one does b/c the grill is larger (vertically).

Yes you should get the fender liners. I've seen a GT bumper installed without them and you can see a very large noticeable gap between the v6 fender liners and the GT bumper. The part numbers for the fender liners are 5R3Z-16102-BA and 5R3Z-16103-BA.The part number for the lower radiator splash shield is5R3Z-17626-BA. It would also be a good idea to get the GT foam bumper isolator. The part number for the isolator is 5R3Z-17C947-BA.
Take a look at this thread if you haven't already. Its a write up for installing GT takeoffs and has information about the parts you will need. https://mustangforums.com/m_1121391/tm.htm
I can't remember the exact prices of each part but I think the fender liners were $16-20ish, the isolator was less than $20, and I can't remember the cost of the lower radiator splash shield. If I have time tommorow I will find my receipt from the Ford dealer so I can post the exact prices I paid.
The parts I listed are only the bare minimum needed. You may need to replace some of the hardware. If you would like me to post the part numbers for the hardware, just let me know and I will post them up.

RE: Fender liners
if you check that link above to titus will ford or whatever it is, the fender liners are $23 a piece. so around 70 total for both after tax and stuff i'm assuming... you CAN make it work without purchasing the fender liners for now if you want... there will be a gap, but its not a HUGE ordeal unless it just bugs you to death. the GT fender liners do help to stabalize the Gt bumper on the sides, but it'll be ok without them until you have the money to replace them... or forever if you choose not to do so.
the radiator splash shield thing... not necessary... your V6 didn't come with one stock,have you had any problems yet? personally, I dont see a need in purchasing one. That saves you a few bucks there too.

i didn't (have to) buy a new raditor shield for mine... but it seems like it's too late for you... or when you say slash sheild, do you mean the stone deflector underneath the car? If it's the later, that wasn't too important.... however, i stillbought one and put it on my car... didn't need a ramp though, but I'm tall and skinny enough to reach under my car... just make sure you have the proper retainers if you got the stone deflector... i just used some that I found in my garage and it worked out great.

RE: Fender liners
Lol yeah i ment the stone deflector... the curb from my driveway to the road is pretty gnarley so i decided i would so i dont tear it off if i come down at the wrong angle.
I got all the parts listed in the how to forum except the foam insert because i was told you can just shave down the v6 one which is what im going to do.
