GT/California Special Front Fascia Switcharoo

Hey all, I'm considering a GT/CS front bumper for my 2005 GT. First of all will it fit an 05? Secondly, how hard/easy is the swap? I'm planning on doing it myself and am not expecting much trouble. Also, if anyone has a black one they're willing to part with feel free to PM me.

Its an easy swap.Takes about 1 hour to hang that bumper if that.

Very easy to do with simple hand tools. You can do the install without lifting the front end up and putting it on jack stands, but lifting it will make it easier to reach under there to access the bolts. Get the Ford Accessories kit, it will have all the hardware you need to do the install, and make sure you have a rivet gun available. Here's a few photos of my car with the GT/CS front and rear bumpers.
