Since I don't have an 05/06 I don't usually post here, but my husband's got a black 06 GT. He just put on the rear and side louvres I got him for his birthday and for Father's day I was thinking I'd get him black taillight covers and depending on the cost, the headlight covers, too. Was hoping someone here could point me in the right direction for brand and website to get decent quality. Don't want to go with tint, was looking for actual covers.
Thanks!

DO NOT GET THE GTS covers!!!! the rear fit VERY poorly, and rub on the decklid, causing squeeking while driving. the fronts are not held on very well, and come loose all the time, especially during drives. NOTHING holds them on at the bottom or the side nearest the grille. they wedge in between the headlight and fender, and snap over the top of the headlight. poor design if you ask me.

Yeah GTS has been like that for a long while. I had some GTS headlight covers on my first Mustang an 89GT. They slipped in friction fit under the headlight and kinda clipped over the top of the headlight with the hood closing over them. They never fell off but someone still managed to steal them without damaging my ride.

If you are looking to get the smoked lense covers you can get them from www.stickercity.com ..They are like window tint film and very easy to apply. I have them on my side markers and rear lights and love them. Or, if you want to call them direct ask for andy over there and tell him chris from B&M referred you..You may get a bit better deal...

I didn't like the idea of three seperate pieces of film for each tail light. Can you see the seams?

Also, Can the film be easily removed...like a static cling? It is a clean install or are there bubbles?
