The wing is a tad large, but I thought it was too big on the old kit as well.

Otherwise, it's very nice IMO. I'd be worried about those side skirts.

I like it a bit better than the 05-09 kit exempt I would loose the hood and keep the stock one, also loose the rear spoiler they have on there with a 2011 GT500 spoiler and black out the space between the tailights.

Don't like it. Looked junky on the 05-09's and still looks the same now. Tail wing looks like a freakin air brake and the rest of it just looks *rice*.

Then again, to be, most aftermarket body kits are not my cup of tea. I like slammed on 20's and thats it. Maybe a small duck-tail, but not that freakin mess above.

i dont like the spoiler neither or the setup of the exhaust going to the back then around to the sides but i think it fixes the back of the car a lot.

Looks like they tried to flatten out the rear end. Which in theory would be a step in the right direction.


That's exactly right. The forward slant the rear has stock was a really bad move by Ford. Why they had to do what the imports are doing is beyond me. Unfortunately for Cervini, the execution for this needs to be refined a lot. It's almost there, but needs to flow better without so many gaps and parts that stick out so much.

Having that lower part of the bumper painted is a VERY good move too. The stock flat black looks beyond horrid. If I get a 5.0 or whatever in the near future, one of the first things I'm doing is having that lower black part painted.

For the most part I like this kit (except for the color, omg I hate grey), but before I'd ever consider it, it needs to be refined a great deal first. But I really like the hood as is and the front grill. That kind of grill is my fav feature of the GT/CS. Also painting those slanted things between the lights and grill is a good move.

i like the Cervini kits from a distance.. but up close they all look tacky
too many "glued up" parts.. especially around the ducktail
i'm yet to see someone go the extra mile and flush mold all this junk for a seamless fit..

I'll never buy from Cervini again. That "tape shit on your car" method is worthless, its hit and miss if it stays on. Have a set of their louvers in my garage after 3 installs and following the directions and talking to their techs on the phone for every possible way to keep them on.

+1, spoiler looks tacky because it doesn't line up with the rear fascia it's mounted against.

Sorry, but I love the look of the Eleanor Tribute, I also feel if you have that much flash in your face look, there had better be some meat under the hood.

I do agree with the others on Cervini's use of 3M VHB tape, I am not a fan of tape, to me tape is temporary, that is why I had all the Cervini's parts removed, cleaned and then urethaned on, it is a much better fit, and I never plan to remove it.

Here is what I have, I love the look, and she is all mine.

I really liked the kit on the previous gen's (enough that I bought it), but I'm not feeling it on this one. That rear spoiler needs a lot more love to follow the hideous body lines.

I do agree the tape supplied sucks. I've already removed half my kit and replaced the 3m tape with Fusor tape. I guarantee it's not coming off now.

Yea def a fan of the 05-09 but this one is looking kinda rough...i agree with US-1, the hood scoop would be much better if it was shortened!

I flushed my rear bumper valence with my stock bumper just because i hated the tape on look as well. I also had the side skirts molded to the car flush but didnt like it so cut it off and replaced them.
