The optional dark stainless grille looks great too. It looks darker than the MCA grille or CS grille.

Pretty sweet ... You can now get the CS front end with Brembo's and without those hideous side scoops! Sucks for all the JOB 1 folks who would have wanted this stuff.

I thought the MCA grille was officially called "dark stainless." . . .

Feature list:

# Unique painted (Dark Stainless) Billet Grille with Tri-Bar Pony Badge
# Front Lower Fascia with mounted fog lamps
# Unique tape side stripe
# Unique decklid tape applique (between Tail Lamps)
# 18"x8" Sterling Gray Metallic Painted Aluminum Wheels
# P235/50WRx18 BSW A/S Tires
# Premium Carpeted Floor Mats with Pony Logo
# Automatic headlamps
# Rear decklid spoiler

It is. But this morning I built a MCA car on B&P, then swapped the grilles with the Accessory one. Of course it's just representative, but the Accesory one was much darker than the standard MCA grille. The CS grille is suppose to be lighter, but I haven't seen a CS and MCA side by side, so it's hard to tell in pics.

The one shown on virtual Mustang is stock GT rear valance, right? Because it's the same for the V6 and GT right now.
No, it's hard to see but if you look closely and look from both rear angle shots you can see the tip of the aero vanes sticking down in the pic.

I really wonder if all this is right, replacing the grilles on the GT means eliminating the fogs and the CS facia notes says it comes WITHOUT fogs???

I have a hard time believing that Ford would just let it go without the fogs when all the wiring and switch hardware will still be there...

They are showing options of getting the GT500 rear lower valance and the CS front lower facia. $150 for the rear facia and $250 for the front. The CS front doesn't come with the fogs according to the notes on it.

If they really are available to order factory installed then that is a really good deal!
They are NOT available to order for a factory install. These are simply accessories you can buy after the fact. The prices listed are for the parts only - installation is extra. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

So is the rear bumper cover 2 pieces then? The painted part and the diaper? How about the front? Thanks!

Why would they put them on the B&P site and let you check them and add them to your regular build?

All this will do is **** people off if this is the case.

I take it back, the picture doesn't change when you select the optional rear valance.

When I built a V6 I thought the picture changed with the GT500 rear. Maybe it was just my eyes playing tricks on me though.

If the bumpers come with the car or not, it's not a big deal. I like the idea of getting them up front and doing it once the car arrives.

Speaking of, a good friend got her V6 Pony Pkg tonight, and I'll be detailing it Sunday. Makes me want to run out and order mine ASAP.

Since I only paid 126 for the GT500 rear Valance, Check a Ford online parts store they are going for around 130 and see if your dealer will price match.
I can get the Front Bumper for less also, but since I have to get the grill surround I will have more in my conversion.
But it is nice being able to get the Sterling Grey CS basically

It's nice that they offer the parts this way and the prices are pretty good too.

I will say that as much as I'm tempted to install them on my eventual car, I like the idea that these are model specific parts and it dilutes that "specialness" a bit.

I love the CS fascia and the standard GT grille.. has anyone combined them yet?

I am swapping e-mails currently with the Ford guys responsible for the B&P site to get them to clarify exactly the situation on the facias.

So far, they are being very thick about it, sent me info about the 402a package instead of the individual accessory options.

Yep. I just got mine back from the body shop yesterday. I had mine painted, as well as the grill surround. I'm just not a fan of lots of flat black plastic.

If they can be be built that way from the factory I am pissed. I love the CS front end, but no Brembo's, no deal. I will just order the parts and have them painted. I just hate not having the factory quality paint on the front of the car because it takes all of the abuse.
