Anyone Change to rear clip of the GT-500?

I have seen a few threads on the front end changes to the GT-500 but none on the back.
I am thinking about switchin' the rear of my GT for the GT-500 rear.
I like the black lower fascia it has and seems to be the only way to get it.
I have only seen one other that has the back fascia skirt, but don't like how it goes up the rear wheel well.
Want to finish off the lower black all the way around the car.
Just wondering if anyone has done this yet?

SoFL05GT has the GT500 rear cover:

I wish it would have been available a few months ago when some old guy put a hole in my bumper. When I got a new one I had the lower lip of the new GT bumper painted black to go with my V6 rockers.
This is the best pic I have right now.

i've got that Shelby/CS rear bumper cover and mud shields. I had the lower end textured surfaces smoothed and the vortex generator section painted a semi-gloss black without a clear. The rest is a very nicely matched redfire.

My car is at the body shop right now getting the Shelby bumper painted and installed. I has a dumb a$$ hit me so it is only costing me $60. I have a black GT and have the bottom section painted flat black. If you would like to see pictures I will post them when I get the car back. I have to tell you I am nervous letting someone else have my car. I took it to a good shop but I will not feel better until I get her back. If my blower was on I would have had them paint it and done the install myself.

Your actions coincide exactly with my plans. Any pics? I didn't see one at your cardomain.
