Trying to see how it would look or should I just get the Shelby grill with it? The CS6 bumper looks to be the most aggressive looking bumper out there paired with the Saleen hood and Saleen Chrome wheels.

Try it with the ponypackage grille, and if you don't like it get the Shelby CS6 grille. Besides, I'm kinda curious on what it would look like too.

Hey Rogue I see you have the front bumper. I'm about to place an order with Hillbank (hopefully the wait list died down) and I was wondering, how much did it cost you to get the front bumper painted? I have the same color Pony (Vista Blue). I think installing it myself wouldnt be a problem.

You are going have to shave the styrofoam behind the bumper a bit in order to get it to fit right. Notice on the right and left bottom where the foam has been shaved. I would try it with the pony grill first. If you like it (and I think it will look pretty good) then you will save yourself a bunch of money.

That front end looks AWESOME!

Do you notice if the front end stopped being so light at speed?

Mine seems to float and is not very good with crosswinds.

I was looking for a way to keep the front end DOWN.

How about the hight from the ground? Do you ever scrape it while braking hard??

Thats something that I noticed with the 06 pony, that nose drop is pretty bad. Saw the video of the GT500 and the freakin thing almost stood on its nose!

What can we do about that? Stiffer front springs?

Thanks

Haven't driven the car so I don't know about front end float.
The car has had Eibach Sportlines installed which are very, very stiff and lowers the car by 2 inches. I doubt it would seesaw much on braking.
The GT500 is very nose heavy which is one of the main reasons it dips so badly.

The paint for my hood and fascia (if I remember correctly) was $750, installed it myself its not very difficult. My clearence in front is 6in. now but will be about 4in. when I lower it.

hey where did you get the bumper from? and is true the pony package grill will bolt directly in? I wanted the gt/cs bumper but I dont think it'll fit with that one.

It looks great on urs, how much ground clearance did you lose from stock to that bumper? Let me know,thanks
