I'd leave the shaker black like original...
Your car looks bad to the bone man..

What kit did you use and what's the approximate cost?

I might just have to do this on mine!!!

Wonder what your car would look like with White Lemans Stripes on it??

What's stock about his hood? It has a Shaker sticking through it..

I think it looks great myself!

Would love to see one in Screaming Yellow before I drop all the coin to do it myself!!!

Shelby CS6 Hood, Shelby GT500 Front Fascia & CDC Ducktail

Here is a nice combo to consider guys & gals.

Yep - it does...

I wonder if a Shaker sticking up through it would be TOO much???

Thanks again for all the compliments. I just got the foglights wired today. I'll try to get some dusk pictures of the fogs. I also want to get clear turn signals or these new black ones. I'm leaning towards the black ones because I think they match the headlights better and I really want to hide the signals more than make them stand out.

Here are some dusk pics with the fogs. Sorry they're a little blurry. Wish they were better but I think you get the idea. Man I love it with the fogs and turn signals on. Enjoy!

Best looking Shelby conversion I've seen so far ....

I love the aggressive looks of the CS6 hood, Shelby GT500 front fascia and
the CDC ducktail spoiler. The stock GT hood looks sweet too because its
sloping down and there is no hood vents like on the Shelby GT500.
The 3D carbon / Shelby GT500 spoiler is not really doing it for me after
seeing the pictures of this windveil blue GT.

I think am either going with stock hood and rear spoiler or CS6 hood and CDC ducktial rear spoiler.

The pictures I got doing a google search after seeing the first shelby gt500 front fascia conversion here on another thread. I just had to find more pics of that car. Very interesting combo I think !!

Did you have to do a cut and splice job on the fog lights?
I think your car looks awesome.

What wheels are you going with?
Are you keeping the stock GT rear spoiler?

Am about 11 days from getting my commission check to order the parts from
KC. Can't wait !!

I used some connectors from an aftermarket foglight kit (spliced in) that we had sitting around. The connectors don't work just like factory but they are good enough until Ford offers the pigtails. I am planning on TTII's and the CDC ducktail. The car currently has a spoiler delete and so far we kinda like it without the spoiler. Who knows I change my mind everyday..... .

I like it without a spoiler, the CDC ducktail would set it off however... to be honest I wouldnt be in much of a rush to put one on, it looks great as is

Wait and see .....

I'll probably play the wait and see deal. Since there are probably going to be a few more hood / spoilers to come later this year if not early next year.

Car looks incredible dude! I have made up my mind, I WILL be doing the conversion also, unfortunately it won't be for awhile, I am going to do the wheels and suspension first and don't the 4K to spend all at once.
