Who has bought the LMR Ford Racing GT500 axleback valance and muffler kit?

I am considering this as an early birthday present to myself. Has anyone done this kit on their 13 or 14? Seems like an ok price.

If you purchase the parts separately, you'll save good amount of money, even if you use one of LMR's 10% forum discount codes.

Look for a second hand GT500 muffler on forum for sale sections (im not sure if i can link you to other forums here, not familiar with the rules), but i was able to purchase used, but like new, '13 GT500 mufflers for $450 shipped. And the valence can be purchased from tousley ford for around $160.

Looks like you have a GT, so you may need to purchase the clips for the valence with the addition of the two reflectors (located on the valence). If you have a GT you may also have to cut/drill a few slots on your bumper for the valence clips.

Thanks for the tips. I was wondering about sourcing separately.

Always cheaper to do that. I can't see how the different vendors can still think that it's okay to charge so much when there are plenty of references to getting everything separately and saving a good bit of money. You would think that they would adjust their package price.

A set of the mufflers is on ebay right now for $295

Anyone know where to get the valance for quad tips?

Ah, missed that you're in Canada... surprised US vendors don't ship up north, it's quite easy!

I thought there was a GB V6 with this setup on this forum. Didn't sound bad. I know there's a YouTube video of it. Search under gt500 exhaust.

Just called FRPP Canada and they quoted me (on sale) $855 for the kit, not incl shipping LOL! Guess I better pay some FRPP retailers a personal visit and see what they have sitting on the shelves for a better deal.

Is that $100 shipped or do they charge you another $100 for shipping like some other companies.
