Does anyone know if the factory strut bar on the 2010 GT will fit my 2008 GT?

The only thing you MAY have a problem with is hood clearance. I know 05-09 strut bars fit the 10+ models. I dont know if the stock 10 bar fits the 05-09 models though.

Unless you are getting one free, just buy one from Ebay from the FR3 handling kit. They run about $125 with shipping. That fits 05-10 models.

Being that the FR3 handling pack fits the 2010 I assume the 2010 bar should fit the 08, I don't think Ford would refit the bar to the new hood just redesign the appearance of the bar.

I tried the 2010 bar on my 2009 GT. Slightly bowed the hood. I really wanted it to work; however the bar is on the way back to the vendor right now.

The 2010 bar sits a lot higher than the FR3 bar. I guess the post above me confirmed that it does not fit.
