Go to this forums V6 appearance "How to install GT bumpers". Has all the info
you need. You are looking for two (L&R) front fender splash shields, upper energy
absorber (styrofoam), lower stone defusor (Splash panel). This panel attaches
the lower edge of the GT bumper to the radiator mount for support and cooling.
Cheapest for all but the splash panel is Rock Auto and it can be purchased through Parts Train
or other. Part numbers are on the How to thread here.

you can save your money and not buy the stone or splash panel that hooks from the bottom of the gt bumper to the radiator. many including myself didnt install it, with no side effects.

best prices on all the stuff is fordparts.com

it was like 40 bucks total when i did it last month

You don't need the GT liners, I have a GT front bumper and the V6 liners work fine.

Well the V6 Fender Wells will work but you will have a gap at the edge of the bumper where stuff can get in

I guess if you live in a real wet area where you get a lot of mud and road grit it may be a problem, but the gap is only in the front outside corner and not very big; no problem for me so far.
