CDC Classic, SHR Louvers, and GT/CS rear bumper

I thought I'd post a few pics, since I haven't uploaded pics of my car yet. Some of you may have read about the problems i had with the SHR painting/install - well, it all worked out in the end.

I've had the GT/CS bumper since october, i just got the louvers and CDC Classic put on a couple of weeks ago. Next up would be an aftermarket hood - i'm thinking a cervini's eleanor hood or maybe boy racer, and a gt 500 spoiler. i might do stripes down the line, but i'm not sure how it would look with the way my CDC Classic is painted.

Looks great. I'm ordering my CDC painted that exact way at the end of the week. I think it would look great with matte or satin black stripes on your car.

That is one hot looking car! I love my CDC classic chin spoiler and my SHR flush mounts should be here today! I feel you should get the GT500 rear spoiler(biased of course)as it really compliments the rear of our Stangs. I have rocker stripes and love the overall look my car has taken so I don't think they would look bad on your car at all. I also plan on getting the same rear bumper as it adds style without being overpowering.

thanks for the compliments! it's getting harder by the day to hold off on buying the spoiler. be sure to post pics when you get the louvers on.

thanks man. i don't have it lowered. i had an '06 in tungsten that i put an eibach pro-kit on, it looked great but i hated having to worry about clearance issues all the time. i think i'm going to stay at stock height and just add sway bars and a strut tower brace this time.

Looks real clean,I like the way those 4 inch polished tips look with the CS rear bumper fills the cut outs perfect.I think you need something to break up all that white even a hood with a rise in it to give you some shadows.Kind of like a blank sheet of paper just waiting for some crayons to give it some life.

Well, what are you waiting for?!?!?!?!?! You can get them for $135 prepainted with excellent color match on eBay!

I got mine from atlantamustang.com for $230 last spring and it is excellent! fairly easy install and totaly changes the look of the car(for the better!)in about an hour

You can count on me posting pics once I get the flush mounts in! I've been holding off for weeks now taking good quality pics, until then!

thanks man! the most important thing in a shop is their willingness to get it right, even if they have to re-do the job. IMO anyway.

i agree. i'm thinking an eleanor or maybe a heat extractor hood. something with some contours. i hate the eleanor kits but a hood would balance out the front and rear of the car.

since the oem ford part is about $200 unpainted, i'm thinking i'll just get that and not worry about the extra holes. paint/install would be somewhere around $100 - $150.

thanks, I found another seller who will match any factory code for $135.

Order away! This spoiler should really tighten up the looks on my car. The factory spoiler is ok, but this one looks more integrated and aerodynamic.

BTW, that paint scheme on that CDC spoiler looks great. Closely resembles a GT/CS !
