Do they really? We have an authorized Roush installer that will do the entire package around here so you can never tell a real one. Didn't think it made a difference. Lol

Saleen used to convert your Mustang by appointment up until 1999. You could literally drop your GT or sixer off and get the Saleen appearance and badging and all in an afternoon.

They stopped when certain "owners" started complaining.

It's sad, because it's really the same thing...except they paid a whole lot more for their "look." Lol

I like what he's doing, as it gives me insight into what I wanted to do, but couldn't afford. I love that '11 5.0 with the conversion too. The GT bumper just doesn't look right to me.

Also, they started putting the Roush badges on sixers and calling them RS! Lol

What's next?

Pretty much the only reason I want one. Mostly want the engine.
But,...I would still love to have the whole car.

Man I wish people on this board would cut each other slack. First this isn't our car. Whatever the OP does to it is his/her choice. Who cares about for how this was paid??? That comment was completely under the belt in my opinion. I grew up in an area of South Jersey that was very affluent. I was not fortunate to come from money and many of my friends were driving brand new Grand Nationals, Mustang GT's, etc. when I was in high school. Of course their parents paid for them but that is OK. You can't come down on someone because their family has money. Now that I am a parent I want to give my kids everything I can. Of course I do this within my budget but its all relative. If I had more I would give more. As I digress. We should be supportive and embrace each others passion for Mustangs.


Action provokes reaction. Reaction reveals attitude and patterns of thought. The way people react tells a lot about who people really are. :-)


I saw lots of jealousy here in this thread and to be honest it was disgusting. IMO

Could not agree more with this. Opinions of other peoples stuff is one thing but there are a few on here (you know who you are) that do nothing but critique. Get a fn life...and/or be supportive of your Mustang brethren....
