Finally Got My New Mustang (08 Gt Vapor)

Hey guys, pretty new here.. I finally got my new stang! I love it. I never had a Mustang before, why didn't someone tell me I needed one of these years ago? Anyways, here is some pics, no mods yet (except sequential tail lights, which I highly recommend from webelectric) What do you think of her? and What mods should I do next?

Looks like you got one with most of the options. That Silver looks great with the polished wheels. I would recommend a classic CDC chin spoiler painted to match. Maybe a CAI with a tune or just go all out for the whipple.

Thats fantastic, congrats! I saw a Vapor yesterday for the first time on the Ford lot, looked pretty sharp. I would say maybe a CAI and tune, rear quarter window louvers, something like that.

Kurt,

I love the color. My 06 is Tungsten............If they would have had Vapor back then I'd of had to flip a coin to decide between the two. Very sharp.

I'd recommend a CAI and a tune. I recommend Doug with Bamachips, but every tuner you will see advertising in here is good. If you wanna go all out you can't beat the Whipple supercharger. Other than that do what you want, make it yours, and don't let others determine what your car is going to look like. Do it your way! You have a great foundation there now let the modding begin!

Congratulations and welcome mate, I would recomend a CAI and Tune first. Stripes and side scoops always look good. either way it's all good.

Nice looking 'stang! I have a few more months to wait on mine but for now, these "I got my new . . . " stories are helping me cope. I'm in Dearborn visiting Mom on the weekends so I recgonize your backgrounds. I assume the one under the trellis is Fairlane? Great pics!

I am glad you guys all like the stang I am definitely going for the CDC chin spoiler, maybe some stripes (not sure if light silver or black would be better) I like the SHR louvers, but looks like pain to install. The DG louvers look great and are simple to install and remove if needed. How could I forget a nice exhaust and intake. I would love to hear about 10 Mustangs lined up with different exhausts.

viffr, it is nice that you rocognize the backrounds. There are a lot of cool places in Dearborn to take pics of your Mustang.. especially with all the Ford heritage

Oh yea, OKLACOP, originally I was gona get tungsten... but I figured I may as well get something that was new for 08. Both colors are sweet! I am doing some research on a CAI and tune too.

RMAYS06 and CHDS PNY, that is pretty sweet... I wonder how many other people did the same thing. Hmmm, could be a new topic, your Mustang in front of Ford HQ. (Nice cars BTW)
