Hello all

So last week i had a little run in with a deer. She smashed up the drivers side fender, the hood, and the bumper.

So i am taking this tragedy and turning it in to a positive. I want to replace the bumper with the roush front fascia and i will replace the hood with the cervinis Type IV Hood, Part#1181. I got a bid from the body shop yesterday and the grand total to put it back to stock was $3700. When i told him my plane he wanted to check to see what was all different between the GT and V6 Front ends. As i go through bids one for the gt and one for a v6 I see the inner splash shields are different which i knew. Then i started to come across some other stuff that did not jive.



-Both GT and V6 call for the same absorber # 4R3Z17C882AA. back when i was looking in to doing this the absorber on a v6 was taller. has that changed?


-then i have listed a Grille, FRT BMPER CVR GT# 7R3Z17K945BA V6#7R3Z17K945AB different prices
-Grille assembly GT# 6R3Z8200BA V6# 6R3Z8200AA same prices
what number is the grill and what is the of number referring to i am thinking one number is the grille the other number is the pony, correct?

and here the doosee There are different part numbers between the GT fender and the V6 fender. GT#5R3Z16006BA V6#5R3Z16006AA what is with that?

as far as the grille is concerned i would really like to keep my pony package grille just because last night i come across a billet grill for it finally!!!!. But as the grille will not fit the gt bumpers i guess i will have to go with a center fog light grille or a grill with no fog lights. but i don't know if the roush front end and that hood would look right with no fog lights in the grill

Any thoughts
thanks

You can use the stock V6 fender liners, I did and there's no problem.

its possible that the v6 fender and gt fender have different numbers due to the gt emblem. the average v6 has no emblem. Holes - no holes.

Good eye!! I bet that is what it is!

For the grille i am leaning toward the fog light delete option

I found a Carriage works grille # 42862. Dose any one know if this a complete grille or dose it require the stock grille and this just overlays it?

The V6 and GT bumper do not use the same absorber if your talking about the foam piece.

thats what i thought but according to the body shops program the GT and V6 have the same Part number

The front of the V6 bumper has the slot for the license plate and on the GT it doesnt so its shapped differently, the V6 is pointy.

The fenders are different only in the emblem holes because the pony package v-6 uses th esame fender as the gt. regular v6s dont have the holes
