I have a 2016 Mustang GT. I came across a pair of 2020 GT500 front fenders. I know the fenders for, but I'd like to make sure that if I buy a GT500 front bumper that it'll fit. Also, looking for a GT500 bumper. Thanks in advance

Nope.

The Shelby's have an entirely different front core support when it comes to Ford original hood, fenders and bumper covers.

If the parts you are referring to are aftermarket repros made to fit the S550 standard body, then that's an entirely different avenue and yes aftermarket fiberglass parts may work IF specifically stated to fit "GT" or "EB" bodies.

What CobraJet said.

There are aftermarket products out there that fit the GT/EB cars with a few companies that make both the hoods and bumpers to help ensure proper fitment. 777 Performance is one that comes to mind for the GT500 styling but there are others as well.

The same goes for the OEM GT350 fenders as well I think - if you were considering those too. IDK where the proportions differ, but I think if you wanted fenders that look like them, you would need to go aftermarket for "GT500 or GT350 styled" fenders that fit the regular GT/Eco Boost/V6 models as the OEM ones will not fit correctly.

As I understand it, most of the reasoning is around brake cooling ducts, routing of cooling lines, radiators, etc but I haven’t taken one apart or read up on it that much to know for sure. They are slightly wider than a GT/EB as well. But basically from an OEM parts standpoint, the Shelby’s parts are bespoke from the fenders forward sans headlights (the headlights are the 15-17 design).
