Yes, but you need HIDs to start and it requires some modification of the wiring.

It won't fit on your GT500 conversion. The grilles don't have the same shape...

Factory or aftermarket HIDs? Those headlights seem wayyyy brighter than the current halogens!

I was eyeballing them for my 500, mainly to fill some of the gap that you see with the 20" rear wheels.

I was also wondering if the bigger 6 piston fronts will fit with the '11-'12 PP wheels, since the '13 PP wheels are slightly different (wondering if the brakes had anything to do with that).

What size are the new rear rotors and how will that affect the factory brake bias?

I'm still trying to get that information, but when I do I'll post it here.

thanks!
I didn't see this mentioned in this thread. Wanted to express interest in adding the boss rear lower valance and front splitter to a 2013 GT. The rear valance appears to be a bolt-on.

Don't worry, most of the people retrofitting them won't care

I think after market sellers should make 2012 compatible HID's with 2013 stock HID like DRL's.

I think the '13 grill will fit the '12. Here's he corner of the '13.

Yup, I think it will fit. You're planning a swap?

I'm looking forward to being able to put laser jammers in there with the new open grill. I'll post when I get it.

Any thoughts on a retro-fit Shaker with Track Apps for the 10-12s?

Shaker and Track Apps are not the same thing. From what I've learned, Track Apps require a lot of harness modifications, which will cost a boatload to do afterwards.

I disagree the 13 is more vertical than the 10/12
