I've read that a darker IUP package might be offered later in the year and that it may resemble the changes seen in the Shelby pre-production car. Does anybody have any more info than this? Surely someone has some inside news.

 

I was wondering about this also. Not that I will want to wait but it will be interesting to see what they come up with.

 

I've asked...waiting on a response.

 

I have not seen a thing from Ford yet either.

 

I'm almost certain it's this finish, which I am in love with.

Notice that the air vent rings are satin, not chrome. It's classy.

 

I really like that. IMO it will look better on black cars I think the bright silver is a little to flashy in black and dark cars.

 

I agreee Brad, that will look sweet on my Black Shelby!!

 

Its too dark for me..

 

Looks good. Agree on the black thing. Personally like the original better. I wish they would come out with a different ICAP. Maybe black leather/red trim or blue. That would OWN.

 

Is the panel plastic or aluminum? Seems like you could get pretty creative with it color wise. If it's metal you could blast it lightly for a satin finish. Or etch, anodize.........

 

This is making me crazy..now i want dark

 

Dark IUP, 18" wheels plus production fixes (gas tank, shaker, strut popping, etc).
I'm feeling better & better not getting an 05 and waiting for an 06 .

 

Hey Brad, any update on this? My GT vert is on order, but I don't want it until spring, so I may want to hold on for this if it's coming soon (already waiting for the 64W wheels)

 

I believe Dark IUP production begins in December.

 

Brad my dealership said you can order dark IUP bt Jan 06.

 

Thanks for the update! As soon as you have more info, please post. I can't wait for a production pic.

 

i may have to check out the satin rings ILO my chrome ones

 

my background

 

I love that padded dash!

 

You know what peeves me most about the upgrade package they left that little plastic ring in the middle of the stearing wheels all plasticy and cheapy feeling, how come they couldnt put the same chrome finish around that little circular plate in the middle of the steering wheel, or make is leather as well. Im talking about the peace around the gt500 cap.
