Next on the agenda - just got my brake caliper painting kit today.... have to figure out a good time to get that done....

Next up after that -


Eibach prokit springs

18 inch Bullitt wheels with BF Goodrich tires
(Mustangtuning.com says they are expecting their 18" Bullitts for the 05 in mid February)

Looking at the Xenon rear spoiler....


Then:
CAI (not sure of brand yet)
Xcalibrator tune


Oh and somewhere over the past two weeks, my HC trap 'fell out'.......

Your Stang looks great! Can't wait to see it with the other mods, especially the 18" bullitts.

Your car looks great! Thanks for the pics and ideas. I have a black one on order and the shortened antenna is one of the first mods on my list. The Steeda CAI is at the top of my mod list along with the SCT tuning.

Mind my asking how much for the chrome exhaust tips from Ford? I have been trying to get a price out of my salesman for several weeks, and he keeps telling me "..they are not in the computer, my parts man can't give me a price yet. I'll check with him tomorrow...".

I am going to the dealership tomorrow to get the price info on this and other accessories I want, with the car set to be delivered next Friday 2/4/05.

Your info will give me a reference point, and some "anti-B.S." leverage. Thanks.

Do you have side airbags, because wouldn't the seat covers make them not work properly?

That tint looks ACE!

The seat covers should go immediately though. They totally ruin your interior....

Lots of great add-ons. I'd love to see the mirror actually say "Chevys in the mirror are losing". Nice mats, think I may have to spring for those.

Thanks for all the positive feedback!

Lemme go down the list:

wjones14 - floor mats grabbed at Discount (Advance) auto parts - 25$. They don't have a hole for the retention hook in the floor but the 'teeth' on the bottom of the mats keep them from moving pretty good. Nice and thick mats, perfect size, and have the padded section for the heel of your right foot.

maucoin65 - your dealer is feeding you BS. That ticks me off. You can find those tips on the FORD accessories site - they steer you towards ordering from a dealer so I went through mine - requested the tips from my guy and had them a week later. I believe that are $42 a piece - I paid a few extra bucks to have them shipped to my place since the dealer is over an hour away from me. Takes a few minutes to put on and you are golden.

Badandy - NO sideairbags so no worries with the seat covers.

To ALL the fans of the mirror decal (the minute I saw it, I HAD to have it - first thing I put on the car) - got it from MWSpeedshop.com. They ship 'em real quick through regular mail.

Eric B - seat covers seem to be an acquired taste with Stangers on here. I will say first that the pictures do NOT do them justice - in person, the colors match so well it looks like they were factory matched to the car. I thought I would like them when I ordered them - after seeing htem on, I LOVE them. In the end, to me, its like what I did with my Escort - I plan on having my Stang a WHILE so years down the road when I decide to take the covers off, the seats will look 99% MINT, just like my Escort's did. Took them off to sell the car when I got the Stang and the seats look brand new.

bulldog03 - EJECT button (and Pony button I didn't take a shot of) can be had at Mustang Accessories (mgwltd.com).
