I can not understand why.....

WHy wouldn't the aggressive chin spoiler fit on a gt500?

http://www.cjponyparts.com/gt-aggres...5-2009/p/FS11/

I mean a gt500 splitter fits a GT
Why would any GT spoiler not fit a GT500 front bumper?
Why arent there any chin options out there for the gt500???
Please HELP ME UNDERSTAND!!!

The two bumpers are a different shape, simple as that. The GT500 splitter does not really fit the GT bumper. Yes it can be put on there, but it's not anywhere close to a perfect fit.

The CDC aggressive requires hacking up the GT bumper to install it as well, that's another reason why there's no version available for the GT500 nose. Not many people would be into cutting up the front fascia on a Shelby or a car with a pricey front end conversion.

you might be able to get away with a PJ lip on the GT500.

If you want to do something "different" with the GT500 nose, how about the Cervini's chin spoiler? It's at least designed to fit the bumper.

I know of this chin spoiler it is the only one besides the splitter that fits BUT when you look at it from the side it don't look that well the bumper loses its aggresiveness when you look at it sideways eventhough it gains in the front!
The heritage looks great just wonder if it fits. I actually prefer the chin spoilers for the GT's better!

Well you send me your gt500 front end and I'll send you my GT front end with the aggressive spoiler already attached. The only issue would be a repaint for both of us.

Haha it's funny you say that because the first thing I changed after getting my GT was the stock bumper 2 months later! Not that i didn't like it just like this one way better!
