I know the guy that does this. He seems to do pretty good work from what I've seen.

Interesting concept, but not well executed.

I like the Lamp Treatment. If the Panel were Painted Black or Argent Like the old Shelbys I think it would look a Lot Better. I would like to see this on a 07 Gt-500 Style Rear to make a final call. I see they only offer the Parts as a complete kit. I believe this is a marketing Mistake. I feel the greatest demand will be for the lamp treatment by itself.I personally do not care for the rest of the package.
BTMO!

When you open the trunk do the lights lift up? I don't see how this works, plus it is ugly IMO

Bumper blows, but if the tail panel was blacked out, I think it'd look sweet

I think that this pulls of the tail lights much better.

Okay. Crude but enough to get the idea, I think.

He needs to use the '67 style taillights instead of the '68. I'd like to see more pics of what this guy is offering. Like one with the trunk raised and install pics just to see how much is actually involved in this mod.
