Anderson Composites will be offering carbon fiber components for the GT500 in 2020.

The contour of the wing body alone exudes strength. Shaped like an extruded arc with plates on each end using extremely lightweight yet strong, carbon fiber. I'm certain the wing from Anderson will be as robust as you'd ever need.

Can’t wait to see the parts. My car hasn’t even been pulled for assembly yet and I am already finding too much nice stuff! Especially interested in the wing as I have a base coming and it would be nice to swap to a GT4/CFTP style spoiler for the road course driving I plan on doing.

how about a hood for the GT350 that has the same vent and rain tray as the GT500?

We do not plan on making a GT500 style hood for the 350 at this time, sorry.

OE 500 hood without the center vent weighs 42 lbs., our carbon fiber hood weighs 23 lbs. Sound good so far?

 

[Epiphany]

Indeed it does. Is the plan for a hood of the same dimensions, mirroring the stock one except in CF?

We have made a replacement cf hood that was molded from the OE 500 hood. The OE center vent can be swapped to our hood as we have replicated all the mounting holes on the backside along with windshield nozzles etc. Our hood will also accommodate the factory equipped hood pins. Utilizing the cf hood will not allow the use of the factory hood strut, it is rated for the heavier factory hood.

I wondered about that. Not having my own GT500 yet I can't take a closer look at the strut being used. I wonder if there is a similar strut that could be used that has less pressure. I'd much rather pay and go that route than to acquire and install <gasp> an OEM prop rod.

Do the front fenders in CF too please.
OEM style will be most popular, but GT500 with the 350 style rear vent would be my choice.
Great news on the hood.
If your hood and fenders take 50# off the nose and I can find some lightweight of carbon front rotors I’ll be happy.
Revalved front hood strut would be ideal.
Tob is getting his first, I’ll just follow his lead....then add 200hp thru boost and corn
Maybe lose some weight with lighter wheels too.

At this rate it'll be another year before this thing ever shows up.

A nice look at what Anderson will be bringing to the table. I didn't see or hear mention of the CFTP wing though. And a minor slip at the :32 mark, the OEM hood is not made of aluminum...

Car looks amazing! I like the regular wheels over the carbon ones. The car looks much more cleaner than the carbon oem package.

AC did an amazing job with the new car and what a difference. Those CF replacements look so much better than the factory plastic. And that HOOD...all I can say is, WOW!

'Course, to outfit your new vehicle with all twelve of them would probably cost half as much as the car itself. <smiling>

WELL DONE, AC!

What? No GT4 wing?

The hood is made of aluminum and a composite material. We're pleased Bill Tumas stopped by our booth today and had some great one-on-one with us and this great car. SEMA day 1 was crazy busy for us. GT4 wing? yes, on our to-do list along with turn signal bezels and lower grille molding.
