I love that look how pricey is the conversion? Can you use your stock hood?

Thanks,
No emblems in the grille for me. I like the clean look to the front end now.
Yes, that's the stock hood and I like that as well. Nice and smooth.

BTW, Jessie, no need for new fender liners. I moved the clips and reinstalled the screws and good as new. No problem.

This might be heresy but I'm thinking that I like the look of a conversion (keeping our stock hood) over the real thing. Something I never really noticed until seeing that side by side shot looking at the front ends of yours and the GT500 left to right. Jay, your car's stunning !

Looks great man. Havent seen a redfire with that done yet. Some clear corners would really set it off.

Thanks a ton guys.
It's funny, I have a 600HP KB Cobra in the garage and I just can't stop washing and staring at this GT. I just love it.

And yes, I think the stock hood looks great. I'd like to see some Saleen style grilles in the back of it. You know those grilles in the back of the Saleen hoods. I think that may look cool.
I'm not doing anything until I do some photo shoping.
