Okay,
Has anyone considered changing the black rubber hoses with real braided hoses (not fake slip over ones)? I thought the standard silver with blue end caps would look great.

I think that would look great and in keeping with the look of the engine too - I'm not convinced I would be brave enough to do it myself though.

Engine Dress up kit

Does anyone know how to attain the Ford GT chrome polished engine dress up kit. See pictures. Can you just purchase from the local Ford Dealer?

Looks like a Ford sticker with part # 4GTZ-6750-AA ????

Help, anyone, Bueller?

Yes I talked to Heffner about replacing as many of the rubber hoses as possible with steel braided. He wasn't too keen on the idea so I never pursued it.

I think it would look great.

We did that on many of the hoses on my latest project... one thing that Jason mentioned he was concerned about was added weight.. mind you for what we are trying to accomplish every pound counts...

I love the look of all stainless braided lines...

I have a set of each and they are both great pieces to add to any GT.

** UPDATE **

We are considering a final run of these CNC'd billet aluminum pieces if there is enough interest.

FYI this includes a limited number of those created specifically for the TT gals too.

Let me know
