    Easy to Replace the Front Splitter?

    Thanks Kendall. I have a very early '05, so I have the front grill. So, replacing these supports should fix the 'frown' issue? If so, the second problem is sourcing the parts. I haven't contacted my local dealer yet, but I'm not too optimistic with them. Ford Parts has them listed on backorder...

    Easy to Replace the Front Splitter?

    Anyone have a pic of the supports and their relationship to the front splitter? The frown on mine has been bugging me for a long time. From my understanding, replacing the splitter won't fix the problem unless these supports are changed out as well?? Ford parts has these listed for $143 each (I...

    Car No Start. Found Problem (I Think)

    Car wouldn't start again. Ignition on, dash lit up, gauges initialized, but I pushed the start button and *click*. Car was dead. Did the usual routine I've now done a 1/2 dozen times and removed the negative lead, loosened the ground and tightened everything back up. Started up fine. Drove it to...

    Car No Start. Found Problem (I Think)

    Yes, Optima red top. Just looked back at my records. Battery was actually changed 2 years ago. But still, a bit premature for this thing to be dead already. Out of town now, but will get it checked when I get home.

    In the Market for a Ford GT Again

    C&C organizers have other events, but to my knowledge, Memorial City is dead. The Woodlands meet up that they organize is a lot better than C&C. Much smaller and no idiots with Mustangs and Camaros. No calendar of events I’m aware of and nothing GT specific. Just gatherings I hear about word of...

    In the Market for a Ford GT Again

    Congrats John. Glad you found a solid driver. Thankfully, Memorial City C&C is no more. I would go a few times a year but it was always a clusterf*ck. The fact I kept going back shows how smart I am🙄 Lots of smaller car gatherings around town. Just went to one yesterday after I managed to get...

    Car No Start. Found Problem (I Think)

    Quite possible. I need to get my hands on a multimeter and check the battery itself. But the instantaneous response to just fidgeting with the negative lead/ground cable lends me to believe it's not the charge on the battery.

    Car No Start. Found Problem (I Think)

    A year ago. And the car is ALWAYS plugged into a CTEK when parked.

    Car No Start. Found Problem (I Think)

    Have to bring this thread back from the dead. Have had battery/ground issues for the last few weeks that I can't seem to shake. Got a CEL a few weeks ago as I was pulling out of the driveway. Used an OBDII scanner and.....no code. Car drove fine so I ignored it hoping it would either go away or...

    Ford GT Billet parts now available again. End of the year special on Top & side vents

    Agree with everyone that these are great. I finally got my set on after re-doing my PPF. Plastic ones were starting to warp and as Marc said, a few of the screw attachments cracked. Clint, I had John send mine directly to Rich Brooks to smooth down any rough machined edges and paint them. Came...

    GT damaged in Hurricane Michael

    Same could have been said about the thousands of cars destroyed by Harvey. Just not that easy to do.

    Gauge Failure Prevention

    I've had 2 hard failures in the past. Said enough is enough and recently had all the remaining available ones installed, functional or not. I'll certainly report back (after I have some stern words with Autometer) if any of them take a dump.

    Definitely the most bonkers in-cockpit video ever recorded.
