It is a 5.0 gt auto with about 420 hp. His body kit you guys are making fun of cost about $14,000 installed which is more then a lot of members cars cost...

Needs 2 things...

1. Wheels. A 20inch. No smaller, and no bigger
2. Brakes. An absolute must when you are going for the looks category....especially with a lage body kit like that and nice wheels.

And if room in budget.....BLOWER lol

Posted by 68dustin (Member # 5388) on :
 
i think it would have came out 100X's better if they molded the fiberglass into the car. It would have made the body look smooth. right now it just looks like they stuck a bunch of fiberglass to the sides.

Posted by BULLITTMAN (Member # 8468) on :
 
14K really bruh??

I've never seen 14k look so cheap! I don't usually talk negative about other guys cars but that kit looks like a bunch of plastic glued on a beautiful car. I'm sorry but your friend got bent over with a 12" dildo wrapped with barbed wire and no lube...
 
Posted by v-town coupe (Member # 2771) on :
 
Waay too much for me, some wheels might make it better ,kinda go with the whole theme rather then some stock wheels. but IMO money could have went else where.

he'll never get his money back. its gonna suck when a real gt500 pulls up and blows the door off it [Razz]
 
Posted by 87MclarenMustang (Member # 10695) on :
 
His other mustang is a 97 v6 so this is plenty of power for him... He's not into the speed, and he likes this look. Are you guys saying that the gt500 from gone in 60 seconds looks hideous? Cause that's what this kit was based off of...

DIDNT SMOOTH THE FIBERGLASS TO THE CAR CONNECTION..
 
Posted by venomous99 (Member # 1917) on :
 
that kit is fugly. but thats just my opinion which happens to be common w/ mostly everyone here. [Razz]

really all that matters is that hes happy w/ his ride..who cares what anyone thinks but if you do post pics on a discussion forum dont be surprised if you get opinions that may hurt feelings. otherwise, dont post at all.
 
Posted by PonyGT916 (Member # 12234) on :
 
14K could have made it faster !! 14K on body is CRAZY!!!! I rather Go MOTOR before i get any kinda body kit !!
 
Posted by Robb (Member # 9444) on :
 
I think that kit looks alot better on the 05-09 s197's. I saw one on the freeway with the kit and it looked awesome
 
Posted by 87MclarenMustang (Member # 10695) on :
 
Besides the fact that the '12 is obviously bigger and its not the same color the styling cues were taken from the movie car when they designed the kit...

It ain't hurting my feelings. I think its bad ass and over 400 horses is plenty of power! [patriot]

And just like 68dustin said the molding/kit needs to be molded smooth to the car. If he really paid 14k for that kit for them to just paint it and slap it on he got robbed .... period

Not getting.....$14k on looks alone???? Let us know when he starts dipping $$$$$$$$ on performance.

I spent 14k and all i got was this shitty body kit.

Where's the truforged rims? Even shelby rims?

No blower?

A fucking AUTO?

The body kit was not molded to the body... It looks to be glued on... Double sided tape style.

The color looks nice...I can't see the orange peel in the pix though.

Those hoods can be a bitch to fit to the body... But all the rest is just basic bolt-ons. Like painting a bumper and installing it. Which would be around 600-900. the bug catchers are like painting mirrors. couple hundred each. Color match/polish. Probably About a week of work. 5k Plus the cost of the parts.

It took Galpin Auto Sports almost 3 months to complete the project. The kit was around $4k, it has show quality paint with the gt350 Paint scheme, and has many layers of clear coat. This thing is smooth as glass! Im not saying it isn't expensive but you get what you pay for.
 
Posted by 75 chevy (Member # 6717) on :
 
you'd have have to take some digital pix to see the quality of the paint work...well, i guess it would be close to 14k then...shit adds up. Paint and materials....blocking and re-clearing. Time is money.

Waaay too much plastic on there! IMO just about all the 2005 & up Cervinis body kits are too much. I like the sleeker, simpler look.

Too much...

not really a fan of "replica's" for that matter. whats wrong with a stock 5.0 anyway?
 
Posted by 87MclarenMustang (Member # 10695) on :
 
Nothing wrong with a stock 50 but that's not what he wanted. He had the money and chose this. He wanted to use the rims and tires that came with it cause he knows he wouldn't get much for them and when its time to replace he will changing them out. Obviously this is the look he was going for. To each their own! [patriot]
 
Posted by MaK_1967v8 (Member # 12187) on :
 
Lol i guess so. It's cool until someone comes up all jazzed to see a GT500 and then he either:

A. bears the bad news that its just a replica

B. completely lies about it, pops the hood and has an enthusiast laugh at him.

These cars aren't exactly old enough to be replicating them. for the price of a brand new 5.0 with the 14k from the body kit. he could've bought a 2005-06 shelby. or atleast something else with the guts and glory, rather than a show car.
