Bought these earlier this week, delivered today, installed today. Overboost, thanks for the recommendation. As you stated, this is a MUST DO install. Who doesn't want to save their rear bumper/lower fender from road rash and debris???

Found a great deal online... couldn't pass it up.

Some folks had to remove the rear wheels to get at the screws, but luckily, I had my trusty low profile screwdriver ratchet that I shimmied up some years ago using something I got from Sears. I forget what this tool is called, but hey, it works. Those of you thinking about doing this, this is what you need to avoid wheel removal. Works like a charm.
Install took no more than 10 minutes. If you own a mustang and you can't do this install on your own, you should go trade it in for a prius.... Haha.

So things installed so far on Marilyn:
GT500 mufflers
MGW
GT500 flaps
FRPP K springs - ordered, arriving next week

Here's the pics of the flaps... subtle, yet functional.

Best tool!!!

Glad you like them. Swap that rear fascia out for the GT500 one and you'll be all set.

As much as I DO Like the GT500 & ROUSH Rear Valances...
The Stock GT One is not all that bad IMHO!

I will prob eventually swap it out for a ROUSH one down the rd when I feel like trying to swap over the Reverse Sensors.

I got front and rear jlt carbon fiber ones. They're a bit larger and more protective.

Looks good though

I used the same method you did, lol. Ratchet wrench and a P2 bit. Takes a little longer that way but probably less time consuming than taking the wheels off.
