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

The rain tray and hood vent are removable they say for track purposes to keep engine compartment even cooler

I know on the OEM, but I thought I saw a photo of the CF hood and it was one piece. I guess I saw what I wanted to see.

How much you want to bet Ford is going to price that vent into the stratosphere?

You are probably not too far off. I'm thinking less, however the complete hood is around what you quoted for the vent.

Gurney flap is MSRP at $599
Splitter wickers MSRP at $999
front chin splitter, hood vent, front bumper insert and rear decklid panel with snake will be offered through Ford Performance and we do not have that pricing information.

Swing spoiler MSRP at $999
Rear diffuser MSRP at $!,699
Rocker panels MSRP at $1,299

Rear mud guards MSRP at $499

Do we know when they will be available to order? There are several things I want ok everything but hood....lol. These will be great little projects over the winter

Jeff: The only estimate I heard was "in 2020."

 

[Tomster]

This is what I was thinking....... the two parts, hood and vent, look integrated as one. Oh well.

 

[kilobravo]

Tom: Since they plan to sell the vent and rain tray, me thinks that they designed the hood accordingly and didn't incorporate the vent into the hood itself.

Yep, bummer. Based upon the photo, I assumed otherwise.

I've rethought the rest of the bling components. I think they would look good. I just can't bring myself to put a CF splitter on because everyone knows, no matter how careful, it is just a matter of time.

SO true!

 

[Epiphany]

Which begs the question since Ford has gotten stupid silly with GT350 splitter pricing....will FP bump the price of the CF splitter such that it is more than their OEM offering when it could have been less were it simply carried by Anderson?

I thought it was kind of strange that in the video they stated the OEM hood was aluminum and not plastic/composite (SMC). I would like to know the weight difference between the OEM SMC hood and the CF hood.

Have to agree with this, going out that one aprin and BOOM !

Anybody happen to know an Anderson Composites dealer who will ship to an APO address? Maneuvering the "find dealer" feature is not very user friendly. Thanks.

I will help you out if you strike out.

Thanks, Tom. Right now, this I'm working with--answer from AC when I said I'd like to buy a CF swing as soon as available:

"You can place an order through one of our authorized dealers now."

I just sent back a message explaining the situation and asking if they could recommend someone.
