Thanks, Justin Rodriguez

Just wondering but why make your car look like something it is not. Why not just buy a GT. I have seen guys put a fake tailpipe sticking out the back to make their cars look like they had dual exhaust. I was wondering who they were tring to impress. Oviously not anyone who knew anything about cars. And I don't think most women know the difference.

i dont think anyone is trying to make their cars look like GT's. Everyone either wants to do duals, and need the gt rear bumper, or they want to run a nice chin spoiler and need the front bumper or just want the car to have the lip kit that the gt has. Why cant you give people a break? What makes you better than us? and why did you pay 5g's more for only a second on the clock. doesnt feel to good to be hounded huh.

I dont want to be a wannabe or anything its just that I like the Gt Fog lights and the side skirts because there painted and I just got a dual exhaust. So for the price of a Gt fog light kit for the v6 $399 and the side skirts cost $120 I minus well get the whole Gt body kit but I will but the Pony Package Pony's because I dont want anyone to think its a Gt.

Hey man thanks ive seen your page on cardomain how did you make that cool picture thing it looks awesome! Anyway some people always have to be A wholes cause they have nothing else better to do! BUNCH OF FAGS :D (millergt)

Im sure you could find a used kit. Find someone with a GT that has installed a body kit and buy thier old stuff.

"Hounded" who said I was hounding. My point was to let someone expain to me why some guys are outting all kinds of GT wear and emblems on their base model mustangs. I was wondering what the point of this was. By the way yes I own a GT but that does not mean I look down on anyone owning the v6 model. If you did not have an issue with it you would not take offence of it. I own many cars but I never put anything fake on them to make it look like something it is not. I also have a 540 BMW with dual pipes running to a Single exhaust and nobody ever says anything about only one tail pipe to me. By the way my car runs in the low 12's so I guess it runs more than 2 seconds faster. "on the clock"

Damn dude you need some counsiling.

Well Miller... 95% of people think our cars are GT's anyway. The body kit really doesent make the last 5% think its a GT unless it has the logo and the gas cap. Some people dont like the big license plate spot in the front and they want duel exhaust in the back. Consitering the the price is only around 650, it's a good deal. You dont have to be such an ass about it.

Well I want new stuff, thanks for all the feedback its awesome; but I just want to know do you need new fendelinings or anything like that or is it just a bolt on process?

So, what exactly is his Mustang? Its existence. What is it? You just said it, "why make your car look like...."

That's what his Mustang is, its his Mustang. So "something it is not" is your Mustang

Capiche?

Why not just buy a GT.

He wanted a V6. That was easy. It's up to him whether or not the $5K hike makes a difference in that choice.

I'd cosmetically modify my car for myself. Not you. I'm paying for it, I don't care what you think. :D I got dual magnaflows, and in the process of buying a GT rear bumper.. but in an effort to avoid misrepresenting GTs, I slapped 4.0 badges on my fenders. I do what I like to make myself happy and to apply my personality to my Mustang... make it at least a little unique.

Oviously you people are much less laid back then the 4.6 liter forum. I just read your grips on how people always ask why you did not get a gt. seriously why do you care. I'm laughing at how bent you all get by a simple comment of car body parts. If you think my comment was being an "ass" you need to get out more. Anyway. I'm a Ford guy and am glad you all have fords so let it go already.

Of course, thanks wouldnt want to be a wannabe anyway, I just got the duals installed a week ago and they put some crappy turbo mufflers with an h pipe and its sounds horrible so next thursday there going to put on flowmaster super 40 series mufflers hopefully itll sound good! Do any of you guys know justin from VMP TUNING?

You could just appoligise for calling the new a guy a "wannabe." My point was just that your being a little harsh. Dont be so defensive lol.

Soon there will be some blown v6's spanking your GT...dont talk so much ****.

LOL, CANT WAIT

Seriously cool off. Read my original post. My point was to make Ford owners think twice before throwing all kinds of tags on their car like many of the civic owners do such as fake exhaust, supercharger symbols, NOS symbols and the like when they don't have them in their cars. It saddens my to see Mustangs all "riced out" as some people put it. By the way, in other 4.0 posts I've read your posts about people driving GTs are wasting their money for that one or two seconds in the quarter mile stuff is offensive to me but I didn't chime in and call you all asses for it. Grow up.

Someone got picked on in highschool....

Ha, sounds like some guys are still IN highschool.

I read this forum slash arguement and laughed. :) I can see where people might be a bit irritated at the guys who deck their V6s out with obviously GT equipment and try to "fool" other people, but honestly, who cares that much anyway? Its not like all 750,000 GT owners in the US individually hand crafted the car on their own. Basically what i mean is i can understand taking pride in your car and in having a GT, but if you didnt build it anyway, why does it matter to anyone if the car is "mis-represented" with body styling?

You dont see the ROUSH owners pissin about GT guys slappin louvers on the windows and hood scoops and etc. do you? Im not taking anyone's side here, but Im just sayin that people shouldnt be upset or offended when someone tries to "copy" a car that is distributed world wide anyway.

Sorry if i offended anyone, but like i said......

will

Why do people keep saying owners of V6's who add duals or lights or fenders are trying to fool. Has it ever occured to thes accusers maybe they do it cause they like the look, it's not like they're sticking GT badges on. Now people who do that are trying to fool others into thinking they own a GT. I just bought some GT rockers to put on my V6, that doesn't mean I want people to think I own a GT, I just like the way they look.

No fog lights, black plastic rocker panels and a single exhaust... I want people to know my car is a V6... hehehehe... nuff' said...

I think you make some good points, and you are definitely not here to bash so thank you . The V6 group here is a good group, I think some of the threads you read just got out of control from one particular GT owner stirring up the pot. If it's a stang, its a good investment, thats what I think.

Ya know if you think about it, the number of GT's that are getting body kits, and all (leaving the high number of take-offs for us V6's) a V6 with GT takeoffs are not going to look like a 'new' GT anyway he he

And wouldn't the original '65-'67 crowd have dibs on calling all of us posers lol

Actualy, I was at my mechanics shop today (Excessive) and the Saleen rep was there. He was pushing two things:

1. Saleen superchargers
2. GT take off bumpers, tires, etc.

He said they did all these conversions and need to get rid of the stuff. I got my running pony's and my 4.0 emblem on the back, actually looks really good. I will be taking pics of it along with my new legend spoiler tomorrow in the sun light.

Geeze you guys post fast. haha. i agree with "do what looks good". I have a 06 V6, pony package, 5% tint, window scoops, soon to be body kit, and i love how it looks. now im working on the performance aspect. I'm GONNA go with the dual exhaust, and im probably GONNA put a GT bumper on, if not a body kit one, and its GONNA look finominal and sound great and be boosted in HP!!! haha

and check my last post if u didnt read it.....it cracks me up..... anyway. Do what looks good.

will

im pretty sure the pony grill will fit loose in the gt bumper

"fit loose in the GT bumper"??? what? i just meant i may be getting the rear GT bumper, not the front one, if thats what u thought i meant. sorry, i should probably be more clear.

Oviously not anyone who knew anything about cars. And I don't think most women know the difference.

Justin was asking about getting a GT body kit from Casco, not sticking GT or any other badges on his car. If you were to follow this line of thinking to its logical conclusion, any exterior modification to any vehicle could be considered "making it look like something it's not". The GT take off body kits are probably the cheapest body modifications you can make, not to mention, form Casco, you can get them already painted. This whole question really comes down to personal tastes, and what you, Millergt or I think is really meaningless to the next guy in line who may like the GT body kit, or the Saleen kit, or the Roush kit, or... I would agree, hanging a badge on a vehicle which are misleading (i.e. Cobra, Supercharged, etc. when you are not a Cobra or running a blower) is not something I personally find appealing, but that is not what Justin was asking about. If that is what Millergt was trying to get across, then my apologies, but from reading your original post, that is not what it sounds like you were saying.

That's not fair, if you own the car, you should be able to do what you want with it. Some of use chose the V6 for cost reasons. It does getter much better mileage, plus your not paying the insurance surcharge for the GT. Pesonally, there are a few things about the GT that I like. If they want to convert it, then by all means convert away.

That's fine... but that is not always the case... I agree with everyone should do what they want... but i'm also free to express my opinion... LOL!

From "The Things I Can't Stand" Department...

1) Dealerships who take a V6 and put ever GT part on it except the badges and then park them out front just to get people to stop. They are not doing it because they like the looks of the GT over the V6... they are doing it to fool people into stopping.. Don't like that... not one bit... LOL

2) There are people who WILL dress up there V6 to fool people... I'm talking about the minority here... you know who you are.. LOL! Example...there's a guy around here that does the car show scene... complete Roush body kit... but NEVER opens his hood because it's a V6.. Don't like that... not one bit... LOL

3) What I consider "improper badging"... Like that guy in Modified Mustang... sticking Corbra emblems on his car... Do I think Corbra emblems are cool? Yes! But do they belong on my V6 (which would had than guy his A$$, BTW) absolutely NOT! Don't like it... not one bit! LOL

So like I said dress your car anyway you like... I know I do... but just don't except me to like it or agree with it! LOL!

Hey you guys sorry for this Forum didnt mean to affend so many people just asked a quick question and the millergt guy had to say the famous fraze (Why dont you just buy a Gt) and its just anoying but i got the louvers from a ford dealership and had them installed and painted by a local body shop, like I mentioned earlier I just want to know if you have to change anything to make the Gt bumpers fit the v6 I heard someone say you need new fenderlinings is this true?

If I remember correctly the GT bumpers are not a simple bolt-on... some minor modification maybe needed... not 100% sure here... perhaps someone whose done it can chime in here...

To each his or her own. I went street scene grill in the front, so no front replacement. cut my own arch in rear for duals, so no rear replacement. And I like the black rockers due to my color setup. the gt stuff adds a 2" or so lip so if you replace the rear or the front you should do both ends so they match, wait here comes the pc part IMOA, wow almost forgot that one LOL. Anyway the rear cut out was actually pretty easy. Although I am thinking about putting the street scene rear on, they have the cut out ready for duals if you want it. But hey we all have our own wants. Got my new rear tires on and my drilled and slotted rotors heck where does it all end. As an old owl once said " the world my never know!" so was that dating myself or what? And to the trolls that continually try to break our spirits. Try as you may but we saved enough money that we can hold out forever. While most of your cars stay stock. Have fun and good luck!

They are bolt on for the most part, new wheel wells are optional, I bought them for mine and of course you should get all new screws and plactic bolts, you will break them when you take them off. Looking back, hind sight 20/20 I have to say one thing. Dual exhaust I think looks cooler on the stock V6 bumper, reason being is the stock bumper curves in more, and if you have nice chrome pipes like I do, you can see more of them with the V6 bumper. Oh well, still love my fogs and 17 inch bullits.

Well I was going to try and keep my comments constructive but it seems like we're going at it again. Miller, I don't understand the whole situation either.
$22,773 - 05 Mustang V6 Prem
+ $375 - GT foglight grill
+ $949 - GT Bumpers
+ $655 - Dual Exhaust
+ $3,300 - Vortech SC
= $28,052 - Price of the GT
If you have only done a few of these mods, you are well on your way!
Where did you get this ET you V6's are talking about. These numbers are real: GT = 13.6 / V6 = 15.4. 1.8 seconds is an accomplishment in 1/4 (about 6 car lengths). That's an increase of about 60-70whp. I guess my point is: you'll spend the extra $5,000 to make your V6 as fast as the GT (w/out sprayin').
I really don't care about the performance spectrum of the 05 Mustang. It's the visual area that gets me going.
I just don't understand this. GT bumpers - fine with me. Dual exhaust - ok. GT grill w/ foglights - crossing the line. Someone please explain it to me.

It all depends on where you live. For my area, the markup on GT's is killer, it is what it is. And for my bumpers, fogs, wheels and tires....I paid 1K so I am not sure where you are getting your numbers. Let these guys customize thier cars how they see fit and just let it go. You got a great car and so do they! They are stangs.

And I can't help it, but even the GT guys told you to stop bashing the 6 banger stangs:

http://www.mustangforums.com/m_950798/mpage_1/key_/tm.htm#977459

And I can't help it, but with a GT at 17, who paid for your car? Enough said, now I am done.

Depends on your numbers and what someone is trying to do... for your example, the person you list is paying a pretty penny for the GT stuff...

$20,000 Used '05 V6
+ 400 Used GT takeoffs from friend (Front bumper, side skirts, grill, lights, harness, Mufflers)
+ 250 Paint and install
+ Not into S/C yet :)
= $20,650 - $7402 less than a GT

Of course I am not making a GT clone, I just like the fogs, bumper and most of all the side skirts, muffs I'm not caring about, but if they come with the package, then we will see...

And as I said earlier, (although this post was much better thought out and should be responded to in a positive way) It depends on the person and their opinion of what they want, why should you care about what someone else does? Everyone has a way of doing something. One of the problems I myself used to have when I was younger, was that if I saw a better or easier way to do something, I would try to help the person doing it, do it easier or better --- THEN, much to my surprise, I was informed that the other person (in whichever senario) did not want the assistance they wanted to do it THEIR way!! It took me a while to understand that that person has that right... easier, better, GT, V6, whatever... even if I think it is the WRONG way to my thinking... I was not them, and in the end it really did not affect me which way they did it. Even if I felt uncomfortable with what they were doing, turns out it was MY problem not theirs. With me it used to be MAC -vs- PC old school computers lol he he ok /soapbox

That's an increase of about 60-70whp. I guess my point is: you'll spend the extra $5,000 to make your V6 as fast as the GT (w/out sprayin').
I really don't care about the performance spectrum of the 05 Mustang. It's the visual area that gets me going.
I just don't understand this. GT bumpers - fine with me. Dual exhaust - ok. GT grill w/ foglights - crossing the line. Someone please explain it to me.

Ok here it is, you may have to read slowly. here it comes ! YOUR A MORON! IMO that is.

LOL.

And Pyrat, my bad for missing the previous posts.

Scared your GT gone lose value or sumthing? Be happy you got one and stop flamin on v6s. Did you go all the way to the dealership to ask for those numbers, just to put us down? For a 1000 sumone can get a clone your car and for 2000 more, get the engine. Stop acting high/mighty and take it upon yourself to draw the line to what sumone can do with their car bud. Having a gt does not make you lord of all v6's.

Hey im 18, I can call u kid. Kid. I bought my own v6 and proud of it.

rygen you may want to requote i didnt like the layout.

Look boy (gt05) I am tired of some kid telling me what I can and can’t do. Deal with it the car has been moded sine the firs one come off the line in the 60's we will do what looks good. To us, hey I have seen some cars that suck IMO but hey we all have different tastes that what makes the USA great your kind has forgotten what price many have paid before you, so that you could even drive a stang. If everyone bitched and whined like you years ago, all we would be driving today would be VW' and Datsun's. Move on!

LOL, ok...

To all the GT owners out there who are reading this and are upset. There is ALWAYS going to be someone better than you. The ROUSH guys dont piss and moan because GT owners modify their cars to be faster or better looking. The SALEEN guys dont piss and moan cuz the ROUSH or GT or V6 guys, or anyone for that matter, hop up their cars to try to "compete". So what makes you so upset that a V6 owner would try to even slightly emulate (copy) another mustang that isnt even top of the line? I dont get it. Grow up, get over it, you didnt build the car yourself and neither did we.

will

hmm... so what about the guys with GT's that remove their rear spoiler and fogs? Are they just trying to look like a sixer? Damn posers! [sm=icon_blah.gif]

Excuse me Will but it’s not all GT owners we have lots of allies in the GT crowd. It’s only a few MORONS with v6 envy. You know the ones at the party that use Ron Popel hair spray and have large gold chains to make up for other short comings.

haha..... i dont know there bud. Maybe? anyway, its all a battle of opinion anyway. I think my tree house is way cooler than yours........ No its not cuz mine has a bug zapper..... blah blah blah........... no one will ever be right. [sm=closed.gif]

yeah i know man..... thats why i said all those who are upset.....the ones who have lives support our battle for the greater common sense!! haha

Wow, this thread refuses to die all because of some kid whose parents bought him a GT. LOL. When you think about it, that is pretty pathetic. And to my other stang brothers out there, I know several of you that are in school (HS or College) that work 2 jobs just to have the 6 and my hats off to you. That is dedication to the Stang community.

have you driven a v6 at night? Have you tried making a right or left hand turn? If you have you will understand why we like the GT fogs. As for the Dual exhaust, it just looks and sounds better. There are plenty that say people who buy the GT buy it because they are trying to make up for other shortcomings. For some of you GT owners, that may be the case, but I am not going to go to a GT post and say that. It is the exception not the rule. The mods i make, i make because i like the look. Most of us do our mods for the same reason, but their are some who do it to try and trick an idiot into thinking their car is a GT. Truth be known, the only people who know the difference between the GT and the V6 are the ones who own them and the ones that sell them. People ask me all the time if mine is a GT and i have no mods. I think we should just all worry about what our own personal taste is and unless you have some constructive critizism, keep it yourself.

Haha you sir are an asshat. Here is the problem with your post. You say with the s/c we are close to the price of the GT, which you are right but down in your post you say GT=13.6 and V6=15.4...you failed to mention the gains from the s/c that the v6 will get. Heres why I have a V6, because i have a car thats good on insuarance, decent gas mileage and i have the money to modify it. Im not the same prickhead that owns a stock GT...yeah my car is slower but at least it stands out in a crowd. WTF are you doing in hear anyway? You dont see me in the GT section saying your heavy POS's, stupid stock mustangs, i think the optional fogs look like as, etc. etc. etc.

Back to the original topic.. anyone here purchase anything through Cascotech tell me how much it cost to ship?

They have great prices for already painted bumpers and such, but I'm sure shipping will kill the deal.

Yah what about the GT guys that have 6er lookealikes, ahs anyone payed attention to the Paxton Stang

http://www.paxtonauto.com/images/robin_lawrence_1.gif

I believe it was like $60 to ship but i had it shipped to my loading dock at work, if it ships residential it will be more expensive

Nice balck pony. Chrome wheels look good too. almost makes me with I would have went with the chrome.

Nice black pony. almost makes me wish I would have went with the chrom wheels.

Sweet!!!

This has got to be the funniest post I've read in a while. GT, V6, blah blah blah. Isn't this a group of car enthusiasts? So... one guy decides what bugs him about the other guy's car? Is he paying for the mods? Personally, I think the pony grill looks better than the GT grill! I also like the Mustang rocker stripe and ordered it for my car! Maybe I'll even put the 4.0 emblem on the back to "fool" people into racing me. LOL.

On second thought maybe I'll just remove all the pony emblems and replace them with chevy bowties!

It all comes down to its just what the person likes personally. I myself thought about putting on a GT bumper cause I was worried that the driverside cut out would not look good plus I was getting the bumper repaired for about $500.00 so I thought I'd look into it, but after I was told I needed the side panels and front chin spoiler just for it to look right I thought "nah my cars not a GT" screw it and I just had trust in the shop. Im not one for putting on GT parts but if thats what gets your jolly's off then do you. I personally would go with a body kit made for the V6 if I was going to add any cosmetic but Im more the sleeper type. I like it to look just like it came off the lot for those rare times when you pull up to a Import or another Stang or what ever and hes all decked out under the hood and cosmeticly, he just thinks Im some guy who bought a V6 and thinks its fast normally the way it came off the lot ( that gets my jollys off) Smoke em, leave em thinkin " was that stock" "No I raced one before, that can't be stock" lol thats what does me. Plus it makes another mans balls feel a lot smaller when we lose ( its just a fact) dont care how old you are. So when I beat the pants off a dude with his girl in the passenger of his all fast and ferious fixed up civic or stang what ever, his balls really feel small cause my car don't look as cool or as fast as his does yet it blow his %$&#ing doors off. lol. Plus when your cars really decked out like that it looks faster than it is most of the time. I would at least have a SC or TC before I even thought about making my car look like it puts down 260-280 at the wheel but usually the case is they have bolt ons like us and just want to look cool.

But hey like I said in the begining thats there style. It's all about being yourself anyway & personalizing your ride.

By next year I'll be blown for sure, running all kinds of ups, and O I have a GT Style body kit. Why? I hate the huge license plate spot on the V6. I'm going to be running GT Mufflers, with an H Pipe, eventually goin to either Loudmouths or American Thunders, so I need the rear bumper, and the ****ty side rocker skirts suck ass compared to the style and elegance of the painted/metal GT ones.

Boy howdy! this is the thread that won't quit. To answer the last question on shipping costs, I ordered a rear GT bumper from Cascos for $200 and the truck freight shipping to Oregon was $165. Still cheaper than the quote for a bumper and paint job quote.

sorry if i am misunderstanding your post.. but are you implying that if your car looks nice it should automatically be able to back that up with a designated amount of hp??!

im not criticizing, just asking.... im just trying to understand where you are coming from

when i got my gt bumper i got it for 275 shipped on ebay... it was a take off but to my suprise... it came damaged becuase the idiots didnt package the corners w/ bubble wrap like they did to everything else so being that the auction said as is and stuff.... i got screwed a little lol but since i got my car hit and the whole hit and run thing.... new bumper here i come :)
