I think I''d opt for the GTS-3 over the GTS-2 due to the more finished look at the rear of the cowl.

Just my $0.02

I would too, but I got the first shipment of GTS-2 back when they first came out.

Went into the shop today as a caterpillar, will return to me on April 18th a butterfly!

It's going to be a long month... anyone want to take me for rides periodically in their stang? :-)

I would, but I think you are probably not located that closely to me...

Well the car's been in the shop for 1 week, and all they've managed to do thus far is to take off the front bumper. They haven't even begun blocking the new hood. He said they should have a test fit of the hood and bumpers next week and will give me a call so I can come take a look and pics...

Here are some pics of no front bumper:







And to think... I'm paying to have my car look like this! :-)

I hate when they take that long. I know how you feel. When my car was in the shop it sat there for a week without it being touched. Took them almost 2 months to finish my car. They kept saying "we don't want to rush it" yet I saw several cars come and go while mine was just sitting there.

Insurance claims prolly come and go quicker... they're the bread and butter of any shop I would imagine.

I'll could possibly store your original bumper if you don't have a place for it

Oh and those kinda look like the chrome Razors on that truck

If you're in the Dallas area, it's yours. It has a small knick in it, and normal road wear. I'd say it's B+ to A condition.

It's already lowered, forgot to get a side shot of the new stance. I will get one next week.

Saw the car for the first time with all the pieces fitted. They still have some tweaking of the front fascia to get it to fit tighter... all in all I couldn't be more pleased on how the parts come together to give the car a whole new aggressive look... I do have a problem now... SPOILER DELETE or NOT ??? In person it looks sick without the rear spoiler! Also note that the doors will have a rocker panel piece on them so they sit flush with the rest of the rocker panel.

Without further ado...

Looks good. Got a pic of the Foose spoiler? I know I like the delete better than what you had, but I also like a good ducktail.

Either way, it's going to look great.

No spoiler pic yet... they need a template. You still have yours?

Wow! That's a totally different look for that car now. Definitely a lot meaner. I can't wait to see it painted. I would vote for no spoiler, but I'll have to see the Foose one on there to decide.
