I figured that, and then open up the sheby fog light holes in the bumper as some form of brake duct.

FAQ

Are The Shelby Front Bumper Covers Paint to Match? YES they Must Be Painted.

Do you offer prepainted Conversion Pieces? No There is way too much chance of shipping damage to freshly Painted Bumper Covers.

Are the GT/CS Front Bumper Covers Paint to Match? YES. The Must be painted Body Color. The Center Lower Section However is already the Matte Black Color.

Is The Shelby Rear Bumper Cover the Same as the GT/CS? Yes Physically they are the Same. They are also Paint to match and Will have to Painted Body Color. The Bumper I sell is The GT/CS Style in that the Lower Center Part of the Diffuser is Painted Matte Black. If you want to Simulate the Shelby you will need to Paint the Rest of the Lower Diffuser Matte Black.

Is there a True Shelby Rear Bumper with The Lower Diffuser All Painted Matte Black? Yes Ford is Releasing a Shelby Replacement which I believe will have the Entire Lower Diffuser Painted Matte Black. It is Twice the Price of the GT/CS Bumper.

Can I get Just the Rear Diffuser on the Rear Bumper? No it is a one piece Complete Bumper Cover. It is not Like an Afftermarket Bolt on or Bond on Extension.

Do I have to put on the Rear Splash Gaurds? No they are only Used from Ford on the Shelby Model but will go on a Gt/CS Bumper since it is the same but not required.

Will The Shelby Splash Shields work on a Gt or V6 Rear Bumper? In my opinion they would be a very poor fit due to the contours.

Will Ford Stop Selling the Shelby Parts to Non Shelby Owners? That would be a guess on my part and I do not know but it could happen.

Will Ford Raise the Prices on the Shelby Parts? They have Raised Some Prices and Lowered Others. In My Opinion the Current Price of the Shelby Retrofit Body Pieces is quite Reasonable and I do not forsee any more Price lowering on the pieces required for the conversion.

Should be getting my GT/CS bumper painted next week and installed. I guess I should have asked when I talked to you, but is there anything else I need to install this on my V6 or do I just reuse all the bolts and stuff that are on my old bumper?

Question So, how much does it cost to get it all painted, etc.?

What would be the expected price to have the front and rear bumper covers, and any other unfinished pieces, painted at a dealer? How about assembly, If they do it all?

Exactly the bottom diffuser and side 1/4's are already painted Matte Black on the shelbys, the GT/CS diffuser only is pre-painted Matte black the side 1/4's are not. When mine was done, my painter just re-painted the entire bottom Matte Black.

Anyone painted the entire rear section? If so do you have any pics? I think it would look good all painted in red?

I'm curious. If you can disclose this, what was the asking price?
