Finally was able to go pick up my car this morning, after a week of waiting for a 5 speed to come in.

The rims im actually switching them out for the stock ones. Don't like the chrome look unless the wheels are 18". The dash was dealer installed, and it also covers the stereo part (obviously) around the cupholders, doorhandles, and windows switches. Rocker stripes? you mean the black strips that have the word mustang in them? didnt want those either.

Schaaaaweeeet! Man that redfire is something is it not? I think that dash kit looks better than the factory one.
She'd look really hot with some factory bullit wheels.

Fazm, congrats I really like the absence of the side stripe. It gives it a much cleaner look.

Congrats! Your car looks really good! Like that center console!

Can you tell us what size the tires you have on it are?

Wow you have my car, and my name. Only my car isn't here yet :angry: . Ordered a Torch Red V6 5-speed Nov.23, it's been 8 weeks, I have no info on it, except that ford has stopped building the V6 5-speeds because of problems with the transmission


Quick Reply: FINALLY, took a week because i wanted the 5 speed
