Saleen grille and gt/cs spoiler?

Will a Saleen grille and a gt/cs spoiler look good on my car? 2011 grabber blue v6. Would I get a lot of haters saying "oh it's not a Saleen" or "oh it's not a gt/cs"

I think there's more GT's with the saleen grill than actual saleens. If it's what you like then...

Do as u please. I'll only object to ricey things! There's people on here that will give u hell about putting on exhaust, saying that you're "posing" to have something that you don't.

My reply to that is, so why are you on these forums? and if that's the way YOU feel then keep YOUR car stock. I will do as I please, unless you are willing to help with my payments???

Here are some pics on the Late Model Restoration Website with that exact combo, which I am thinking of putting on my white car as well. Pics are under the Customer Pics, they have a Grabber Blue and a Performance White shown.

Nobody gonna say crap, the Mustang is probably one of the most customized cars in the world.

Now if you go put a 5.0 emblem on the side, I suppose you'll catch some crap for that, but nobody should care at all if you put the better looking than factory equipped Saleen grille and CS valance.

BTW - The Saleen grille only says Saleen if you pony up for the expensive Saleen emblem for the grille, otherwise it's all black.

Mix 'n' matching parts is what makes your car unique. Most people aren't gonna know the parts are from a Saleen or a GTCS, they're just gonna know that it looks good. Putting badges on it that show it to be something that it's not is a different matter...

I agree with this. There was a post on here about a car that had a GT500 front fascia transplanted onto GT (I believe). That's fine with me, it just makes the car look like a '13 instead of an '11 or '12. The Snake on the grill, however, was a problem for some and it would have bothered me as well. Customizing your car to make it look unique/different/whatever is one thing. Advertizing it as something it's not is quite another.
