Throwin around some ideas for ground effects

Throwin around some ideas for ground effects
I was thinking about some ideas to dress up my car (Black GT Coupe) a little and was hoping to get your input. I have looked at most of the kits out there and i think i am going to use a mix and match stratagy. I have a few ideas that i think might look good. Feel free to disagree and give some of your own opinions.
I was thinking either the CS6 front fascia or GT-500 front fascia (i love the way the gt500 looks but im a little leery about doing it cuz of the whole 'poser' factor). Any other suggustions are welcome, I am looking for something that wont be too gaudy or big for the front (i.e. Roush, 3D, etc.) Im hoping to keep the cars clean look.
As for the rest of it, I was kinda thinking of going the Cervinis sides, rear, and spoiler
If not: than i will just mix and match kits pieces for the rest of it. If anyone has ideas of what would look good w/ the CS6 front or the GT-500 front, please let me know. As for the spoiler, Im pretty sure Im gonna go Cervinis C series (ducktail) no matter what. The sides, im not sure on, but i do want something because otherwise it looks like i have a plow on the front of my car. As for the rear bumper, I like the roush, but I dont want the ROUSH letters embeded in it, so i dont think thats an option, I kinda like the 3D Boy racer rear bumper too though, does anyone know if anyone sells it separately? i cant find someone who will.
Im sorry, I know this is long and confusing so thank you for any input you might have.
P.S. I havnt even thought about hoods yet, im open to suggustions (maybe CS6...idk)

My thoughts....
I have a black gt too and I plan on getting the sse rear valance. For the front though I'm torn between the sse,roush, or just getting one of the chin spoilers from cdc. I don't think I like any of the side skirts out right now. Cervini's looks alright but I've heard people are having clearance issuses with that. I don't want to have to be carefull when going over speedbumps.

to be honest im not sure i love the cs6 front fascia and if i can do it on a gt will do it no matter what althought im not sure it's possible it might be v6 only. I like the cervinis kit alot and would definately consider it but I really did not want to lower my car anymore then stock height whether it be kit or dropping it. the beauty of the cs6 front fascia is that it's pretty much stock height and if you don't add any side skirts or anything it still looks fine. If the SSE generation II with the centered exhaust rear doesn't lower the car anymore then stock (which i think it doesn't) then i probly will go with that and the cs6 front I think overall it will look the best.

i think those kits look cool. its alittle to much for me. specially the wing on that white mustang. i went and checked out musclecardirect.com store in phoenix. its pretty cool. they carry alot of mustang body kits. I was fond of the duct tail wing they had by street scene. its real clean! i was surprized how much mustang product they carry. you should check them out..

my combo is a Cervini's rear and side-exhuast, Cervini's window scoops, CS6 side scoops, Cervini's front bumper or Foose (if it becomes aviliable), Fang Performance hood and (GT500, Fang Performance, Cervinis double wing, or steeda short wing)

thanx for all the input so far guys. A few questions: has anyone ever seen the CS6 in person? How low is the front of that thing compared the rest of the car (or stock front bumper height). I think it was buck who was saying that he thought you could pull it off w/o side skirts (no offence buck, i belive you, i just want more opinions before a blow money on this
) also, another question: Do all of the roush rear bumpers have the ROUSH letters embeded on the back. I thought they all did but i thought i remembered seeing one a while back that didnt. Or maybe not. Thanx again guys, im sorry if i might be getting annoying at this point but im kinda particular when im putting this much money into it.

thats the only reason i went with the Steeet Scene over the 3D kit
i sure wish they would make that hood though i want it baaaad lol

Another idea i had was using some saleen stuff. I like everything but the rear and the wing on the saleen so i was thinkin the whole saleen kit (including the hood, tho it will probably come later) except the rear and wing. instead i was thinking a diffrent kit for the rear, maybe SS w/ a ducktail. Again, just another idea, let me know what you think, thanx again.
(P.S. if anyone has any pics of thier car w/ kits or kit combos that they think look good, especially the ones ive mentioned, please post, thanx.)
