Yet 2 More Gt500 Front Swaps In One Weekend

Hey everyone, just wanted to post some pictures of my yellow and my friends black GTs with the Shelby GT500 clips installed. We completed them this past weekend and the only thing left is my yellow rear spoler, which is on it's way to the body shop, which I gotta say did an amazing job on the paint. The transformation was a little time consuming, especially on the first one, but the outcome was unreal.

I did want to thank all the guys who had done this before us, who got us all interested, like UK50, 2L8IWON, 555, OKLACOP, TUCKER, etc. I especially want to thank Jesse (2L8IWON) for all his help via e-mail and phone. Thanks bro. I hope you guys enjoy.

Looks good. Unless someone else with a yellow stang follows suite you'll be the first and only yellow stang with a cobra front end.

The wheels on that yellow one are sick.. Are those 20" wheels?

These look stellar!

Yea, they sure are. They were the best things I had put on the car, but now with the new front, its a toss up. I guess they both work together, but thanks for the compliment. They are greyfaced 20" wheels. 8.5 front & 10 rear. 255-35-20 front and 295-30-20 in rear. They have a mean look and also the retro look to them. My friend has the mesh style on his and they look pretty cool as well, especially with the new front. Thanks again.

Both cars look great. The Yellow looks amazing. I've wondered why they didn't make a Yellow Shelby to begin with. Well welcome the the Shelby front fascia club.
