Ford GT500 Carbon Fiber Packages

The GT500 arrives at the showroom as the flagship of the Mustang lineup, boasting an aggressive stance with a large grille opening, vented hood, deep front spoiler, and a rear spoiler featuring a Gurney flap.

Ford offers three factory‑installed carbon‑fiber packages that let you elevate the car’s speed, handling, and aesthetics:

• Carbon Fiber Track Package – The premium kit adds a GT4‑style track wing, 20‑inch wheels, an exposed carbon instrument panel, adjustable strut top mounts, and other weight‑saving elements. It commands a price around 25 % of the base GT500 cost.
• Carbon Fiber Handling Package – Focused on aerodynamics, this kit provides a splitter wickers and a Gurney flap.
• Carbon Fiber Handling + Track – A hybrid that blends features from both packages, offering front suspension adjustments along with the aerodynamic enhancements of the splitter and Gurney flap.

Beyond these factory options, a range of aftermarket carbon‑fiber accessories is now available, giving owners an additional layer of customization and performance.

New Performance Accessories

These add‑ons differ from the factory packages and were first showcased during a track event at Texas International Speedway. They are designed to complement any carbon‑fiber enthusiast’s GT500.

• Front bumper trim separating the upper and lower grille sections – $1,150
• Carbon‑fiber rain tray and hood vent replacing the standard ABS plastic vent – $1,185
• Front splitter with SHELBY embossing and a belly pan bundle – $1,850
• Rear decklid trim panel – $575

Note that the Carbon Fiber Track package does not include these individual components.

Weight & Performance Advantages

While carbon fiber lends a sleek finish, the real benefit lies in weight reduction. For example:

• Front splitter – 4 lb lighter than the stock version
• Rain tray and hood vent – 4 lb lighter
• All four accessories combined – 9 lb lighter for a total cost of $4,730

In racing terms, even a few pounds can translate into measurable gains. Consider that the latest Nissan GT‑R omitted a hood paint layer to save 3.5 oz.

These parts are the perfect complement to a Shelby GT500, whether you’re after a refined, track‑ready look or tangible performance improvements.
