You would have to shave down the top two little parts that go on the sides of the Contour grille. I don't see why it couldn't be done. I know the 98+ SVT bumper has that nice dip that would go below the Mystique's bumper line.

I would be interested if you modified it a little bit for an early year mystique.

Not a bad idea to make a CF version Chris! I would assume you use the same mold and the difference in $ is worth it. Fiberglass is very hard and therefore chips easily. The Carbon Fiber would resist cracking MUCH more than the fiberglass as well as adhere the paint better IMO.

i don't know much about fibers nor molding, but i'm assuming you mean the resins that are used are more resistant to cracking with carbon fiber???

"your" is possessive, "you're" is the conjunction that is short for "you are", "there" is for "the dictionary is over THERE", "their" is the possessive one, and "they're" is a conjunction that is short for "they are". have a nice day :rolleyes:

It takes just a day for them to churn it out. But, right now they are doing the ones from the initial group buy. It shoud be a week or two, then shipping.
