I saw a GT500 live at the Ford Dealer today, they just got their first one in (already sold obviously). My salesguy took me down there to look at it while my car was in for an oil change and I have to say I like the look at lot more in person than pics. Pics don't do that car (as well as these other mods above) any justice at all.

I had the ducktail in mind already but that rear bumper cover does look pretty slick!

.....

Do you have any more pics of the rear bumper??? The ones you posted seem distorted (really wide looking). Also did you install the bumper yourself or did you have the shop do it once the new bumper was ready?? How long did it take for you to recieve it once you placed your order??

Hi Leo,

Don't have any more pictures of my car's rear end. None of pictures have been distorted. Maybe their just taken too close. However, you wouldn't see much detail if I took them from further away. I installed the bumper cover myself. The install was not difficult. The only PITA was transfering a wiring gizmo that feeds the side parking lights and light for the license, from the old bumper cover to the new one. There are about eight rivets that you have to drill out, then re-rivet. The whole install takes a couple hours the first time you do it.
