  1. Custom GT500 Convertible Build

    Yes!!! šŸ™ŒšŸ¼ That’s coming up next! Not sure when, but ever since I got the car I’ve wanted to do a convertible GT500/Shelby conversion. Always planned body work and interior first and then the drivetrain. I’m working on starting up my own business in SoCal LA and I drive up to 300 miles a day, so...
  2. Custom GT500 Convertible Build

    Thank you, I’m very excited to see it finished and get started on the finishing touches and interior swap! šŸ™ŒšŸ¼ It’s all the same dimensions as an OEM GT500, so yes it does. I’ll have completed photos on Tuesday of the front end. It sits two inches wider on each side, 4ā€ wider overall. Stock it...
  3. B&O 10" sub replacement guide

    Hey, yes you’re right. But the Shaker has a short 12ā€ connector that goes from the back of the sub and then to the harness. The B&O goes directly from the sub connector to the harness. I’m cutting off the B&O part of the harness and then wanting to adapt it to the sub end of the shaker sub...
  4. B&O 10" sub replacement guide

    Hey guys, maybe I missed it, but are there any wiring diagrams for the Shaker and B&O subs? Specifically where it wires into the vehicle harness. Need to compare the two for making an adapter. I have the Shaker 8ā€ installed, and I’m building a convertible GT500 and when taking apart a donor car...
  5. Custom GT500 Convertible Build

    Paint done, install up next Update: will be finished Tuesday, kit being fitted now and mirror caps being painted black for more authentic Shelby look.
  6. Custom GT500 Convertible Build

    Does anyone have any experience or know where I can find more about swapping this main big dash piece? It’s got more accent stitching and soft touch, as well as doesn’t require cutting to fit the PP guages. I’m already replacing almost every panel in the car with the Shelby parts, so it’ll be...
  7. Custom GT500 Convertible Build

    Though BIG update, is I ended up pulling the entire interior of a Shelby Super Snake apart down to bare metal and am doing an entire official Shelby interior swap. All low mileage and like new out of a totaled car. Just crappy garage photos I just took for personal reference, didn’t plan to post...
  8. Custom GT500 Convertible Build

  9. Widebody Spacers for flush fit, need help!

    I need at least 50mm (2ā€) spacers in the front, does anyone see any issue with going any larger? Don’t think I’ll need to go larger, but want to be sure the wheels fit the wide body
  10. Custom GT500 Convertible Build

    Hey just an update on what’s going on. Drove the Mustang from NorCal to I5 Autohaus in Santa Ana SoCal, about an 8hr drive. I strapped the hood down and zip tied anything that could get caught or move and I left around 9pm to avoid being seen driving with a messed up front end šŸ˜‚ Met with the...
  11. Custom GT500 Convertible Build

    Lmfao, the shop here tried charging me $9K for the install ha ha, ridiculous. Got a specialty shop in SoCal who’s gonna do the work now and get me out the door with parts, labor and paint for well under $10K. Since no one here seems to have any input at all regarding this kind of build, I’ll...
  12. Widebody Spacers for flush fit, need help!

    Thank you for the help! I just bought brand new rims and tires less than a month ago, wasn’t planning on doing this kit, but someone smashed my entire front end so now here I am šŸ˜‚ That makes perfect sense, 50mm (2ā€) + my 255 tires = 305’s like the GT500. Going for the Mishimoto Mustang 2ā€...
  13. Widebody Spacers for flush fit, need help!

    Any thoughts on these? Would 35mm be enough? All the stock Mustang wheels I’ve seen aren’t quite flush in the front, there’s an added inch on each side of the fenders with the kit. So I’m hoping this would be enough to make it flush with the fenders. From what I understand hub centric is the...
  14. Widebody Spacers for flush fit, need help!

    Here’s a video of an install done with 255’s, though mine will look better and actually have the paint perfectly matched along with GT500 lighting. The gap between the wheels and the body is too much to ignore šŸ˜‚
  15. Widebody Spacers for flush fit, need help!

    Hey guys! Need help getting the best spacers for my build, front and rear for a mean flush look šŸ”„ I have my 2018 Mustang at the shop getting a Widebody GT500 kit installed. Have basically everything sorted out but I’m going to need spacers so it looks and fits the wheels right. I’ve never used...

  17. Custom GT500 Convertible Build

    Hey guys, so update, I’ve just spoken with my insurance and auto body and I think this entire front end wide body GT500 conversion kit is the way I’m going to go. If anyone has any feedback or suggestions please let me know, I’ve already reached out to I5 Autohaus and they can have the kit...
  18. I-5 Autohaus 15-22 GT500 full widebody front end conversion

    Has anyone tried this? I had my front end smashed by a careless driver and am taking it to a local body shop this week for them to fix and repaint it. It actually needs almost all the parts included in this kit, and I’m thinking of getting it to convert my front end to the full GT500 look.
  19. Custom GT500 Convertible Build

    Photos of the build and body work progressing are a few posts down, currently fitting body work. Hey guys, someone busted a U-Turn infront of me and my car needs front end repairs. Originally I was thinking about doing this hood and bumper Cervinis GT500 Style Hood 777 GT500 Style Bumper...
