2006GT500 Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 Not sure how I feel about the hoods or the billet grilles, but I seriously dig the rear fascia especially since I already have side exhaust. Check it out. http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showthread.php?t=72848 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SVTregistry Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 not a fan... sorry i think it looks more aggresive stock --Russ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXPcustom Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 It looks more like a downgrade. Also the Cowl style hood is a Chevy thing really not for a Ford. Its a nice kit for a GT not a GT500 or even a Shelby GT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dropping__Chronic Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 So they got rid of a ton of cool things on the GT500 and then made it look like a V6 with a big hood. Interesting approach. Next up I assume is a primer overspray and coon tail from the rearview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 I suppose it's fine if you want to show the car although I don't think I would change any of my stuff for these. But it doesn't look like any of it would increase anything functionally. the grill looks like less airflow, the front splitter can't be as effective as the stock part. The hood does not have any type of heat extractor that I saw unless it's in the back of that big hump, the rear is hardly noticable and not worth spending $ on to change IMO. I'll pass but it's good to see more coming out anyway. Everyone likes different things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lambbo Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 I think it's interesting that most on this site don't like it but on the link above, they do. I think the Cowl hood makes the car look more aggressive especially if it's on a dark colored car. The grille is just the opposite, It looks good on the Blue car and I'd imagine it would look good on a red car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshua484 Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 Not for me, sorry. See lambbo's signature above my post with his picture of his GT500? I like that look A LOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2006GT500 Posted October 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 I think the hoods look a little off, and the chin spoiler is gross. However, I think if I painted those grilles black they'd look good on my car. Also I've thought about ditching the side exhaust to get a Shelby rear fascia cause it's just so damn good looking, however with this kit I could get the rear fascia and keep the side exhaust. I just like seeing more hoods available and more styling options. I like to see variety among cars and not just the same thing over and over.

Leonard 95 Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 The hood is ok, would I put it on, no, but I have seen worse. The chin spoiler is not working, stock one is just fine. The billet grill, yuck, too distracting. Never been a fan of side exhaust, but hey, that just my .02. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikesan Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 Not a fan of billet grilles on cars. Trucks, OK. Side exhaust is cool, but hood looks forced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
