Okay - So I'm not really organizing a Group-Buy on these front end conversions but would like to gather the data points for someone who may be able to coordinate such an effort (KC are you listening???)

Yes you are interested
No you are not interested

If your answer would be a MAYBE depending on price - well - you should mark down a YES because the more people that are interested, the price just gets better and better.

 

No, I'm not giving up my Saleen HIDs...

 

In all honesty, the shelby front end doesn't look as nice as the GT. Gotta have 4 headlights just like on my 69!

 

I love it but no way could I afford to do it. Voted yes anyway.

 

I am having a hard time figuring out why I would spend over two grand on a non performance mod... sorry.

 

Voted no. I'm not flaming the people who have done this but mine is a GT not a Shelby, but I might be interested in the hood.

 

like the front end and everything but it all comes down to Saleen if they can get their PJ bumper up and running it might make it easier for people with already $1100+ Saleen HID's and keep the 4 headlight design...plus would give room for brake coolers or added cold air induction and would not mean so much smaller parts needed like new brackets and wiring harnesses {{given you do not want the fogs on the bumper if you want them on the bumper then from what i have heard you will need the harness and cobra fogs and brackets}}

 

how about the ducktail instead?

 

i would on the ducktail - painted preferred.

+1, i prefer the look of the pj fascia, would want the fogs also

 

Depending on price, I love the shelby front, but $2k is a lot of money for a front conversion, especially when I think of 2k invested in forced induction.

After seeing a few of the Shelby GT500 front fasica conversions done already here - am hooked. Waiting for my commision check which am told will be paid on the 25th of this month. KC - I'll be calling you on the 25th !!!

 

i am going to wait for Saleen and see if they come through and thri price as from where i see it they might use all of the factory stuff

 

I wish KC would chime in on this thread.. Certainly there's enough interest in this mod...

I like the Saleen PJ also - heck my car is pretty much there already but this GT500 is one totally cool look all to itself...

Thanks guys..

 

Voted yes!

 

Saleen PJ all the way

 

Yes!

I'll be doing mine in a few months group buy or not.

 

Ready to pull the trigger with my local dealer for all parts excluding the hood.

 

Voted YES! Already ordered "everything" front and rear from K/C....less the hood and front chin spoiler i ordered locally....

 

I like the GT nose far better than the GT500. Swapping a GT500 front on a GT is a waste. It is kinda like the so called "clones" of the 60s which are nothing more than fakes.

 

It's all good tho... to each his own man.... I personally went in to look into buying a shelby gt500.... i was not interested in the H.P. just the overall look! I loved it! It is something different.... however that is when i learned of all the "hype" and you won't get one stuff.... Walked out after a few weeks with a v6!!! (the car was put thru my dealers race shop out here) Ford racing suspention lowered the car 1.5"
Ford racing 18" wheels.... duel exhaust, etc, etc.... After driving the GT i was more impressed with the handling of this particular v6! Thats when i hooked up with all you fine folks here on TMS and learned or KC and this front and rear conversion! In the end, i will wind up with exactly what i wanted to start with.... the overall apearance of the gt500 and the ability to actually use it!! Instaed of collect it for about a third of the pricetag!! Like i said to each his own... I personally love Oaklacop's car, tell me it does not turn heads 360 when he drives by as opposed to a stock v-6 or stock GT! Just my 2C....
