Not sure what he paid, but I got a quote from Tousley for a little over $2300. That included the lights. You can probably get it cheaper if you shop around a bit.

I'm wondering how the tailights alone will look on the 11-12 bumper since my car is black and hides the lines of the car a bit.

That is daaaaaaamn sexy. I wish I had going with something other than black. For multiple reasons. But what are the points of the RTR licence plate hole things? Just to get rid of the ribbed plastic?

yeah for sure you can get it cheaper. I got the lights for 550 and the bumper for 400. Gotta factor in mufflers too, though, since it would look weird with single tips in the dual tip slot, so that was another $450. It really really make the rear end look sharp though. i have patience like a rock when it comes to waiting for a deal.


I think the only weird thing is figuring out what to do with the difference in the lines going from sideskirt to rear bumper. i feel like painted side skirts would match nicely with the rear bumper but look too low (they already hang lower) than the front. unpainted makes the rear bumper look out of place. i may try plastidipping some of the lower edges of the rear bumper to see if I can make it flow a little better.... or if someone wants to sell me their white sideskirts :)

looks. i mean maybe you can argue that they relieve some air pressure that may build up behind the bumper, but i got them for looks. speaking of pressure building up behind the bumper, can someone please make a sweet aluminum diffuser for these cars? it's begging for one just like this:

It isn't that noticeable on mine unless you are a mustang guy. You would likely never be able to tell on a black car.

Water can get behind the gap though, FYI.

I agree. It really isn't that noticable. If someone ever did come out with a filler piece, it may almost make it look funny but making the area stick out more (unless it was painted maybe)

Damns that look great! I didn't want another white car in my house but these 5.0 sure look nice on white. I really think that you have the perfect combo (11-12 front/13-14 rear) Guess I'll be looking for the lights first and then go from there.

the apr looks too tacky, specifically because the carbonfiber and textured plastic don't jive well together. it's almost like you need a trufiber CF rear diffuser just to make them look consistent. and they don't make one for the 2013 butt.

this thing is more of a minimalist look and something about the aluminum looks really good to me.

That wouldn't be too hard to make... Just an addition onto the existing diffusers... Look like a couple good sheets of metal, rivets, and a few stainless screws and your done

I'd like to see a shot from directly behind. I agree that piece looks badass though
