A buddy hooked me up and I'm not really supposed to be throwing names around because its not quite in production yet. Don't want to get anyone in trouble.

PM me in late march early april, I should be able to give you the details then.

cervinis is much different. no heat extractors (anymore) larger gap from the front to the scoops and it isnt so "curvaceous"

this hood is made for the gt500 font end, the slight hump in the hood if you look close. Also the center splitter of the scoops is much different than the GTS scoop.

I can guarantee that this hood isnt out yet. Very few people have it.

So I guess you will be switching to the gt500 front then as well?

Yes I was in an accident and decided to go ahead and do the GT500 conversion for the front clip. Just love it so much more than any other aftermarket company. Turned out for the better when I found out that this hood would be available for me too.

Where'd you get the GT500 front end? I was wondering why I haven't seen any GTs with that mod yet...

Car looks great

Is there a conversion for the GT500 front end? I love the way the GT500 looks all around and would love to purchase the whole body kit if its available.

there has been a conversion for a while. It expensive though. I think the kit is around $2g's for just the front.

It will look pretty good if you go that route. I hope you got some go with all that show you'll have. Good looking setup though.

haha sorry I got a bit excited and wanted to show you guys. it is a bit rude haha but then again as soon as it is available and gets in production I'll let you guys know. The info would be a bit useless even if I was able to tell you guys.

Yes there are conversions available. Now days, because of the yearly price increases, just for the bumper conversion it is about 2100 after shipping costs. Then to add to that there is paint.

thanks guys and yes Ill keep posting pictures as my car starts to take shape.
