Smile FIRST SHELBY/GT/CS Rear Bumper Retrofit

I finally finished my lastest car project, retrofitting a SHELBY / GT/CS rear bumper, including the SHELBY splash shields and 3dCarbon GT500 spoiler to my 05. Below are some pictures. I decided to paint the bumper the GT/CS theme and leave my painted GT rocker panels as is. I am so pleased with the result! What do you think? BTW, I purchased everything through KC at Clevenger Ford. He was most helpful throughout the project. Thanks KC!

I love it! Since a dumb a$$ hit me I might need a new rear bumper, is this one piece or a bolt on to the stock bumper?

It's a whole new bumper cover, which includes the rear diffuser.

Thanks. Any result from having them on so far? They dont look like they'd protect the bumper much.

For cost, just send KC at Clevenger Ford ( Clevparts@aol.com ) an email with HOTSHEETS in the subject line. It really wasn't too expensive. However, you need to get it painted.

cost on the bumper should cost somewhere around 180-200 + paint. As an employee, I can buy it for $165.

Thanks everyone for the nice compliments. I bought everything from KC at Clevenger Ford and he prefers that we don't post his prices on the internet. Again, just send an email to Clevparts@aol.com ) with HOTSHEETS in the subject line and KC will send you current prices, including the cost of these pieces. I will say that the GT500 / GT/CS rear bumper cover was considerably less than the price of a Mustang GT rear bumper cover, so get them now before the price goes up.Following are the part numbers:

Rear Bumper Cover 7R3Z-17K835-AAPTM
Splash Shields 7R3Z-16A550 AA and 7R3Z-16A550 AB

That's a mod I plan on doing also, along with the GT/CS front bumper cover. Looks really good, I can't wait to get mine, too.
