Update: Saleen PJ front fascia

Hardcore Mustangs worked some magic again and got me the saleen PJ front fascia, I think it looks a little more aggressive, and complements the saleen hood well.

i love that bumper. i think that is the one i will eventually get. are those headlight strips optional? or it is stuck in place? that is the only thing i dont like about it.

just to clear things up, thats the saleen legends front bumper, the parnelli jones chin sticks out and looks more aggressive than that.

First off look at the lower grill in this pic

the opening is shorter on the one pictured above. Now look at the lip in this pic.

If you look closer at the PJ photo, you will see that it has the same piece in the lower grill, only painted black.

Different angles make it deceptive.

Looks great. But I would paint that top part in the lower grill black. White makes it look too small.

The pictures ren274u shows are of the prototype PJ. That has a full screen grill. The production cars are like svt boot's but top edge painted black.

As seen in this image.

This might be a cheaper alternative for the gt500 front end.

The chin spoiler looks much nicer on svt boosts, than the pj it just sticks out too much.

That's pretty slick having the Gt500 fog light holes, plus the normal GT top part. Almost looks like they just spliced the two bumpers together. Where is this available from?

Saleen still hasnt said whether they are going to sel just the facia as of yet. I have contacted them direct and been refered to another shop who will sell this kit. He is also trying to convince Saleen to break the body kit up as most of the demand has been for the front facia. If you look at it and a GT 500 it is almost the same and a much cheeper route if you are doing a clone. I myself am doing a KR clone. and am on hold with the facia for now. I went with a cheeper chin spoiler till Saleen sells this facia.

The gestimate on the retail of the facia was in the neighbor hood of 500.00 I will keep you posted.
