Ikon Motorsports really stepped up with this new front fascia for the 18/19 Mustang .great how it retains the factory turn signals and fog lights..my opinion this is how this new GT 500 should have looked like ..not saying it does not already look amazing!!

Eh, still looks like a Bomex bumper from 2001 to me. I’m in the minority for sure but I like the GT350 bumper a million times more then the GT500.

Hey Brother
Not my style, but you do your style.
As for me, I'm just looking to improve the lazy W chin spoiler.

Sitting that low is what makes it look so good. Impossible to drive on street

Never been a fan of body kits or crazy designs. I have always liked a tasteful simple hood, maybe a functioning ram air. Front lip and small OEM style spoiler. Never really liked the wide bodies or fender flares or fake vents and what not. Just not my style. Speed and function over style and glamour. I guess because I have always loved the element of surprise.

Well said Brian.
That is too much modification for my liking.
But I believe everyone has their vision and style - you like what you like - good on you.

I am always a fan of functional mods so this probably isn't the right fit for people that do track days. I would be interested to see wind tunnel testing of this on an 18+. I am sure modification to the under tray and some duct work behind the wider vents to properly direct the increased airflow is extremely necessary for anyone that races. The GT500 functionally uses all of these vents, so I am wondering what the trade off would be.

Looks like a 2013 Ram Express pickup I owned. With a little bit of Charger.

I still think the best looking front bumper out there is the Shelby GT-H. To me adding a knock off GT350 or GT500 bumper is like the old V6 mustang adding Cobra bumpers. Just passing it off for something its not. While i understand the GT-H is a Shelby design its just a GT with a bumper, its not trying to make it a GT350 or GT500. I really want the GT-H bumper and hood if i had to switch to anything.

The GT-H looks worlds better without the stripes and hideous wheels.
