Nice! I'll do the GT500 front eventually too. I also like the 10-12 side skirts better than mine, painted or unpainted. They have that detailing that the 05-09 and 13-14 don't...they're just straight across.

I do. But it looks like any other 10-12 Mustang, as they painted the side skirts together with the bumper. So if your ask is 13 bumper with unpainted side skirts, then no I do not have those pics.

'13/'14 rear with boss/CS lower valance and '10-'12 Roush front bumper cover with 13/14 HID headlights.

I'm very happy with it though may do GT500 front at some point.

The 13-14 headlights will fit on the 10-12?

The fit perfectly. You just need to build a little bracket to mount the top of the bumper..

Gotcha. $30k is there starting price. I wouldn't pay more than $28k out the door. Probably less. Msrp on that car was probably about $36k, and being that it's at least 2 years old, even with low mileage, depreciation is depreciation. I'd offer them $25k and start from there...

I totally agree, of course the bias in these posts usually fall along ownership lines; there have been some that have crossed over each way. Just a matter of personal opinion.

Right on!! Funny how that works. I love the '13-'14 cars but the '10-'12 cars are just a bit better to my eye...and you might guess which one I own.

You can't go wrong with an S197 going all the way back to 2005. They're all good looking machines.

Thanks...

If anybody wants to put a 2010-12 front end on their car, I have a bumper, grille, hood and the 2013+ light brackets for sale

They just lowered the price 1K today after I talked with them. Went home and the price was lower on there web sight. I told my son 25k Is what you should pay. We think alike. Now tomorrow will tell because I have to call to see what his insurance will be.....

ThankX laser

I agree. My '11 is black so it doesn't bother me as much. I really wanted a Kona Blue but couldn't find one for as good of a deal as this black one. The plastic on most 10-12's make them look cheap.

Ugh, that black plastic. I wish it had been painted to match the body color. That thing never stays clean.

Yeah it does get dirty and stay dirty until you treat it. That lasts for 2 weeks then you have to do it again.

why couldnt Ford just make it so that the car didn't need side skirts??? These cars would have such a better low profile look to them

I agree though i think they did a much better job on the '15 with splitters and lower profile.
