Hello fellow stangers!!
Just joined today & am introducing myself. I previously owned a 99 35th anniversary edition mustang & am now very excited to own a 2008 GT California Special edition in black. My first one was a wedding gift from my hubbie & now he bought this one for me shortly after Valentine's day this year. We got lucky & drove thru our local Ford dealer's lot just to see what Stangs they had & there sat the black GT I always wanted. It was a bonus that it turned out to be a California Special.
I had done a lot of minimal changes to it so far. I changed the plastic power outlet plug to a chrome one, changed several bulbs to LED lights, added pink seat covers, painted the calipers pink, pinstriped the "ghost" black GT/CS with pink to help it stand out better, painted the hood prop pink, cleaned the engine compartment, & now onto bigger things-got my new pypes muffler delete exhaust today! Next is a cold air intake and many other things to come.
The mustang community is a special group of people & I met several at the American Muscle show this past weekend in Mohnton, PA. And, even though my hubbie is a Chevy man, he even admitted to having a good time at the show. We met his car show hero, Chip Foose, & got several autographs, including that he drew a Mustang on my GT/CS recognition guide making it more valuable, even if only to me! He's a terrific guy & if u ever get the chance, the 3 hour wait in line to meet him was worth it!!
Will try posting pics of my car as soon as i figure it out! Hope everyone enjoys my rambling about my car

I have tried for DAYS to post pics of the updates on my car & to no avail. Emailed the administrator twice....no reply. Anyone have any other tips on posting pics from an iphone4?? I have an album set up to add them to on TMS and everytime i try, i get an upload failed msg or a security thread is missing msg...even tried taking new pics and/or adding to an existing album that already accepted pics. Can anyone help?

No problem viewing them on your photo site. I was having a hard time picturing the pink accents and really like how it pulls out the Black on Black striping. Though that's a LOT of pink with those seat covers.

Thx stangers! The pink seat covers gave me the idea for the stripe & they are protecting the seats from any damage, so i am keeping them! If u ever see this car, u will definitely know its me...lol
. I am glad u guys were finally able to see my car as it is now. Cold air intake is next big purchase & next smaller purchases are all LED bulbs with tints on the lights to make her a little sleeker all blacked out. Whats ur next mods? Love to hear your ideas & about ur stangs!
