GT500 CONVERSION DONE - KR HOOD PG. 11 - HOW-TO & PART... - 4/2/2007 2:53:17 AM    MELLOWYELLOW06 Posts: 2344 Joined: 10/13/2006 From: WEST LOS ANGELES Status: offline Hey everyone, just a bit excited over completing the conversion of mine and my friends(mystang04) car.  We worked on setting this up for weeks.  We finally picked up the painted part on Friday afternoon and started to work on the cars later Friday night.  Now we are done and enjoying the hell out of all the attention these cars are getting.  It's late and I'm really tired from all the work and the last 2 really late nights of installing so I'm just going to post a few completed pix for now.  Will post before, during, and after pix later.  I hope you guys enjoy as much as we have so far.  < Message edited by MELLOWYELLOW06 -- 3/9/2008 4:50:53 PM > _____________________________ Watch the car Drift!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfeJnPH3moA&feature=related PAXTON CREW MEMBER Polished H.O.

I remember you guys mentioning things like Fender well covers and everything, but I can't see why it would need this. (Seems like all you would have to do is change the front fascia like so many that are out there now.) _____________________________ 2006 Mustang GT Exterior: Black Clearcoat Interior: IUP, Dark Charcoal, Leather, Shaker 1000 Best 1/4: 13.075 @ 107.75 mph Weight: 3660.

I just got all the rest of the parts today. I bought a fiberglass GT500 hood too (only one in existance), and I filled the vent holes with fiberglass. I am doing some more body work on it today, and as soon as I can get it all painted...I'll be cool like you! _____________________________ Bucephalus '07 Alloy Metallic Mustang GT Brenspeed JLT CAI Eibach Pro kit 20" Silver Foose Nitrous Wheels Motive 4.10s Ultimus Romanorum (in reply to 05MustangSally) Post #: 20
