Try www.levittownfordsupercenter.com

In some instances, their parts are cheaper than Tousley.

There is cuting for sure. See the blog from LMR:

Luckily, Ford saw fit to bless us with the exact cut lines needed to trim the GT bumper to fit the GT500 lower valance, calming the nerves significantly!

Yes. It's similar to adding a Boss diffuser, only there's a few extra slots to cut out. See my thread below.

After reviewing this again, I kinda want to "go for it" and get the GT500 valance.
Go for it, I love the quad tips. Fills up the rear better than the single pipes. Changes the sound too. My car sounds different from my buddy that has a 2011 with the regular magnaflow competition series.

I just don't want my car to completely look like a Shelby copy, since I plan on a SS style hood at some point.

gross, never. The irony though is that depending on how much of the car's loan I munch through the plan is in two years trade up to a Grabber/White Stripe GT500 vert (13 or 14) anyway... At least in that case I can transfer stuff over like the Torq Thrusts and the Super Snake hood..

There would still be enough of a difference. And there aren't that many Shelby's out there. So it would help set your GT apart from the rest more than make it look like a Shelby.
