Thanks!

The Saleens will not Fit on the Shelby. I am Checking to See if they are planning to produce any. As Far as Emblems it is your choice. You do not have to use the Cobra!

Any idea on pricing???????????? I talked to my Ford dealer's parts dept. today and they said the entire 07 Shelby 500 gt front end, including hood was going to be $1802.70. I just started a thread on this topic w/ a few more details, but don't know how to attach it on this post.

If you change the front end you have to have the new hood, headlights, upper and lower grill, several additional brackets and braces, and new parking light/turn indicators. $1800 does sounds like a lot and that is before taxes, paint, and installation. I figured the Ford parts would be higher. I don't see how aftermarket parts will be that much cheaper.

No worries, the hood that is on the GT at the start of this thread, is actually the GT-H hood which was designed for a regular GT, so anything should fit. I am personally going to wait to order an aftermarket hood designed for the GT500, that way I have the curve in it.

Did some homework, the entire front bumper without the hood should be around $819 or so, the hood costs around $500 and those ugly plastic vents cost $234 EACH!!!! Haha definently not getting that hood
