Jer how does this piece attach? Isn't the fender panel all the way up to the roof all one piece? Wouldn't we need to pull that whole thing apart to install this?

No. It mounts at the body line.

Somewhat hard to describe it here, but Page 122 of the new Shelby 2012 Annual magazine has a complete article with installation pix.
Get a copy, and it will detail it for you.

We should have it available online any day now (or today, possibly).

Jer, that wide body 'wingless' car looks absolutely spectacular. And while I'll be picking the magazine up somewhere, whenever it becomes available - I gotta know:

- Does the kit utilize the stock bumper? I'm just wondering if all you do is spread it open a bit and bolt it to the new quarters...

- Do you end up cutting the existing sheetmetal fender lip off and then just bond-in a horizontal extension for the wheelwell that then meets the new quarter?

The '05-'09 kit is no less stunning. I was staring at it yesterday, it's just MEAN. And it's very well integrated, doesn't look like an add-on.

How is it that discussion about the magazine has found it's way into several unrelated threads?  Must be a hot topic.

BTW, I've checked several local CVS and Walgreens stores and none have it yet.

I know how you all feel!
Remember, I'm not just an employee of Shelby American, I'm also a client.
I've been buying a bunch of parts for my latest project: a total rear end rebuild. New upper control arm bracket and adjustable control arm, de-rusting and painting the axle housing, 3.73 gears, Eaton True-Trac diff, new diff cover, Moser axles, ARP studs, new bearings and seals, Baer Extreme+ rear brakes... whew!

I subscribe to the lazy man's theory: "May as well do it all while I'm IN there"!

LOL... I'll ASSume you mean the "significant other".
My wife loves cars, she has an MCA Edition 2012 Mustang that we're gonna make into a GTS. She "gets" it. We were looking at a Cobra for sale recently, it's an automatic, and someone told her "See? You can drive it, too!".
I swear, her blood pressure surged.
