My black GT finally made it to the processing center. they gave me a call today to let me know it was in. i still have to wait for all the paperwork to go through but i got to sit in it and take a few pictures. I am really glad i got the spoiler delete.

It looks awesome w/o the spoiler. That's the same as mine except I got the 17" polished aluminum bullitt wheels. It looks like the brake lights have yellow turn signal lights in them. Is that something that is reqiured in the U.K? Congratulations on your new ride I wish mine was here.

What's the reaction of the Brits to the new Mustang? Do they like it? Are they impressed?

On the 1999-2003 Cobras, the tailights had yellow areas-they were called export lights. I think in europe all your turn signals have to be amber front and rear.

It's probably just the flash in the camera, making them look amber. Its happened to other 05 pictures.

Yea I've noticed other pics that look like amber lenses, but I was glad to see they were red when I actually saw one in person.

yeah it's just the flash mostly. there is a place to install a very small light behind the outside one but it does not look like it will work. it does have a bit of a amber tint to it when you put a light behind it but we did not have a small enough (single led) light to fit in there to see just how amber it glows. with a drop light behind it, it was only slightly amber and mostly red.

I think I like it better than all red. The brake lights are huge as they are and the amber breaks it up a bit. Good choice on the spoiler delete . . . great looking car.
