I bought a complete set of fox GT ground effects off ebay. Both long pieces under the door, both pieces in front of the front tires, both pieces in front of the back tires, and both pieces behind the back tires. As an added bonus, they are from a car that is the same color as the one I'm putting them on.

I was wondering what you guys think is a fair price for this. I'm not sure yet if I got a great deal, but I've been having trouble finding all this stuff in good shape.
All I need now is a new front GT bumper cover and body work and paint will begin after it gets the 351W swap.

What do you guys think it's worth?

Tater guns are the ****, I still have one in my basement, has a 3ft long barrel made with 2inch pipe, has a real nice pop when it fires, and its pretty darn accurate for a potato, my uncle built one and actually put a stock on it, a scope, and to fire it he had a 9volt battery I think, the ones that go in those square flashlights, anyway it had a trigger and all on it, it shot like a real gun, we used alcohol in it though, that way it didn't get all sticky and not want to come apart.

if you can't see the relation between GT ground effects and potato cannons, you don't deserve an account.

Yep, I used to wonder where the LONG tater shot into the sky ended up going. I even named my cat after it, Tater.

We still want to know how much you paid?

$175.

I think it's worth it, because I NEED almost every piece, and it already matches the car (it will get painted anyway someday).

I was having sooooo much trouble finding any of this stuff around here. I'm really surprised I even found the whole set.

that's still a decent price considering they already match your paint. are you going to go with a cobra rear bumper?

No, she likes the GT bumper (its the wife's car), so that's what's going to stay on it.


Screw potato guns!

Wish I woulda known you needed that stuff. Dude just bought this notch next door that had a GT body kit on it. He asked me if I wanted the kit since he was returning it to LX style. Everything but the front bumper was in perfect shape only primered. Could had it for free

I have yet to see straight gt moldings at the yard. they are either warped and wavy or they have chunks missing where they clipped a curb or bounced off a honda civic.
