2005 Mustang - In Tucson today 4/27!
Yah, the bumper coming to a point etc. are features that belong in the "Pictures don't do it justice thread"
I can't figureout how some idiot could have busted up that front. Backed over something and then landed on it? Or did it have to do with the strap?
BOYS, KEEP IT IN ONE PIECE TILL OAKVILLE!!

oops, #14. Everybody there was really impressed with the car. Except one guy yelled out "IT SUCKS" but maybe he was talking about his BBQ sandwich...It's kind of weird 3 different news stations plus the newspaper was covering the car today. Either this group has great PR person or it was a really slow news day...
It was hard to see the front or back, so I'm still on the fence about the GT's foglamps. The rep did open the door so we could see the back, but with all of us bunched up in the door I couldn't get a shot off. The back emblem is HUGE - It looked like 8" in diameter.

I also just spoke with my dad, he works for the GMC/Pontiac/Cadillac dealer here and said the bumper got damaged at Holmes Tuttle as the guy was backing it off the trailer. He wasn't there but a couple of the guys from the dealership were - he said it got caught on one of the ramps. Looking at the ground clearance in the last shot, I can see how that could've easily happened. Something for us to keep in mind if we'll be using ramps of any sort on our 'Stangs!

I bought a set of Rhino Ramps (shipped from the US) for $80 Cdn. They are low profile and made with plastic but very strong. They are for use with cars that have low front facias such as the mustang and the probe. Worth every penny. Got many an oil change out of 'em.
any idea where you can find a set of those Dan-o? the ramps i have now got a nice big arc, and i can already imagine my horror when i take the GT up on the ramp and park it and see a nice scratch or tear across the bottom, and ill be....danged if im givin my keys to ANYONE except a dealer for warranty stuff, so oil changes and the like and for moi, so ill probly need another set for a ramp, and replace my $20 (US) Wal-mart ones :yes:

Excellent ramps. I can't say it enough. Very light also. I hang them on my garage wall with a nail each.

I have the same ones. They work great for low clearance cars, and well, all cars and trucks. They are light and easy to stow away high on the wall.
I think I have seen them at Wal-mart, but I know they have them at Auto Zone, Advance Auto, Pep Boys, and other.
