GT-500 KR PART NUMBERS LIST COMPLETE
Here is a List of the Components used to make a GT-500 KR! All but a Few and the only one of any Real Interest I can Supply is the V6 Pony Spoiler. The Rest will need to be Sourced From Shelby. I have no Idea if they will sell any or All of these Pieces to Non KR owners or not. I simply Post these For Your Reference and Enjoyment. {m} Numbers are FORD RACING part Numbers. SAI are Shelby Numbers!

Thank You Kevin
Thank You Kevin,
I was looking for the front air splitter part number (SAI 17D997 KR).
Do you happen to know if that part can be ordered by itself?
Thanks

Well, I would only consider replacing mine for the PERFORMANCE improvements, not looks. So unless Trufiber has some testing information available showing an improved downforce over the stock GT500 I wouldn't be interested.
I do appreciate your reply and information though.

2008 GT500KR
Extensive engineering work was devoted to deliver more front downforce, starting with the most obvious aerodynamic feature on the new car –
its slick carbon-fiber front splitter.
The new splitter is an all-new profile, more aggressive than that of the GT500. It is deeper and consistently full in shape, mirroring the shape of the leading edge of the hood and bumper above it for design coherence. Its lateral edges, which kick up small aero wall shapes at the wheel arches, are a clear statement of performance intent.
The thinner splitter aids with approach angle clearance, but downforce is its primary role helping achieve a 31 percent improvement.
The splitter structure creates a flat floor shape under the front portion of the bumper shape to the leading edge of the front wheels. Enclosing this area provides a significant downforce enhancement.
The splitter underside also incorporates an integral brake cooling feature, with molded shapes inspired by NACA ducts.
“We focused our efforts on creating even downforce levels front and rear. That meant finding more frontal downforce than the previous model.”

You Would Need to Contact Shelby on that one. I do However Offer Trufiber and This Appears to be Similar!
