id love to do the '13 gt500 front but i fell like people would see it thinking its a '13 gt500 then see the back half of the car and it would somewhat look like rice or one of these dumb asses with a v6 car and cobra emblems


IDGAF! That front end is aggressive and they can laugh all they want im not going home in a POS civic or integra.

Converting to a 2009 GT500 front end would run about $2k with an aftermarket KR hood (not counting paint).

If I had a 2005-9, that's the way I'd go...

Mmmm carbon Fiber.
Where are the CF fenders coming from?
Or are you simply (and I use that term loosely) going to take the glass ones, fit them and then make a mold for some CF ones?

If you start your own thread with CF parts, please link it here. I don't always go through the entire forum and may miss it.

Man this might be a good idea to do, how much are you looking to spend besides the paint?

That's not bad. I might look at doing a stock 2013 with roush grill. Now I need to finish my DOB kit and start saving. Good luck with yours.

They're coming from me. I make carbon fiber mustang parts. Mostly been making parts for the new edges but now I'm branching out into the s197s

Lol trust me I want to finish them asap but responsibilities have been coming up. Things look good to get my 01 cobra up n running again soon so I can take the Shelby down for the project. The Shelby is my DD

PM me your website so I can see what you have made and for sale.
If no site, a parts list is cool.
Would be interested in parts for an 05-09 GT.

Have a buddy who has a CF business too but damn is he ever busy working for businesses to do anything big for me. He said maybe over the winter he would have time to do my bumpers, whatever I have then.

Any updates to this build? I'm very curious as to how this will look and match up? I was on CRP website and although the pics detail of the mustang is not that great, some lines don't look too straight (from what I'm able to see). Just want to see after someone on here actually pulls the trigger

Agreed. I love the look at the '13 GT500, but I feel it would look too... Front heavy on a regular GT...
