Anderson is developing carbon fiber parts for the Mach 1, stay tuned...........

Probably still need a Mach 1 already for those parts to fit anyway.

I checked out Mach 1 in person and inspected the bumper etc. Some things to be aware of is, the side bezels with a built in giant vane on each side divert into a large radiator on each side which is absent on a regular mustang and will result in the air being thrown into the void of the lower engine area, with no way out. the wheel covers on Mach 1 do have some vents so maybe the remainder of air can try to escape through those vents, but might still have some buffeting effect?

FP did some rounds recently with the Bullitt lower grille and ACC to test it and it was a no go, so the honey comb style lower Mach 1 grille might have same effect, but that is a risk to take for those who want to keep ACC.

The older parking lamps that was used, I saw some paint and plastic chipping at the corners toward the center of both cars where the lamps join the bumper surface, I guess it is not a perfect fit and forces a bit into the paint/plastic of the bumper. Id question that if that was my order

Search the forums - there's a member here that had it done recently. Direct swap no major issues.

Hard to compile info off the what did you do to your mustang thread though,. Yeah needs a separate thread, but his was a damaged complete take off bumper, still need to source some correct parts that complete the front end if buying from scratch.

I strongly suspect the claim that this is 'mp concepts' product. The real MP Concepts can't sue for trademark violation by a Chinese actor.

The multi-piece is a lot easier to paint if you want the black as I did. Also the fitment of those pieces allows for some adjustment - and yes that is needed! I had my body shop, Green Tech Collision, in Upland CA do it.

They did a great job, and they are great painters, from color matching to repairs. Worth every penny [and c-note]... LOL

No, the paint wasn't that much, but the whole thing wasn't cheap.
