Smile First spring mods installed

Spring is finally here and I got around and finally installed some of the mods I accumulated over the winter

FIRST: are the smoked turn signals w/ chrome bulbs from stang mods



I think they really make the front end more aggressive and they match the headlights perfectly

SECOND: Woodview Double Brushed Interior Kit. It matches the stock wheel spokes almost perfectly. The kit is top notch quality although I did screw up a bid when I installed the center peace. (Its too close to the left) but no big deal


I love the embedded pony in the center (I'm thinking of painting it black)


THIRD: My favorite and biggest mod yet, the FRPP dual exhaust kit. I'm very satisfied with this setup, no drone, not too loud yet sounds great once you step on it. Sounds really nice just checkout Oddyses and Sandman's posts. The 4.0" exhaust tips really stand out maybe even a little much so I'm thinking of geting the GT rear bumper, if anyone knows where I can get one in Ontario that would be great. (shipping from USA is no option I checked with newtakeoff.com and it would cost me $250 + bumper )





*I'll have videos of the exhaust soon

Overall, its great to be driving the stang again (out of storage) and the new mods make it feel like a new car all over again


oh, how could I forget I also got this *****ing mod free from the dealer where I got the exhaust

I love all the mods, but the FR Dual exhaust is my favorite. Did the trim for the bumper cut outs come with the kit?

I like that too, very clean looking setup. Paint the rivets black and it'll be perfect. The dash and lights look pretty cool too.

+1. i like the cut outs too. i would leave it as-is and forget about the gt bumper. i even like the exposed silver-on-black look. it looks more original the way you have it.

i would suggest that you maybe consider as your next mod, getting a smoked LED 3rd brake light, but i love what you have done so far.

well it would defenetly be cheaper to keep the cutouts...I haven't thought about the smoked LED 3rd brake light. Where can I find those? I am also considering on getting the CDC ducktail spoiler and maybe relocating the 3rd brake light to the rear window.

well, the cdc ducktail is definately the way to go with the relocated 3rd brake light. the only problem is that you have the stock spoiler so you would either need to get the holes filled or use that adapter to cover the holes.... although you probably already knew that.

btw, i got the LED 3rd brake light from ebay.

here is a cruddy pic of my light in case you were interested. my car is alloy colored, but you can sort of get an idea.

Yeah, I would have to fill the holes somehow if I go with the ducktail
