I ordered my GT more than 10 weeks ago from a dealer here in upstate NY. Still no build date and spring has arrived! Question - How do some of you get photos of your car coming off the line???

Sub Total $1,348.49
Ok I'me about to order this list, but one item in question is the Underdrive Pulley.My car has the shaker 1000 system and I am wondering if running the underdrive pulleys is going to affect my voltage?I do notice with stereo base pounding lights do dim slightly with each big base hit.Also with all the new sufisticated electronics the car has i am wondering that the drop in voltage might affect Fuel pump,Spark,and all the other things that need full power.When i was racing GrandNational,s I remember people having battery problems with underdrive pullies.

A couple updated pics
Hey Beachboy, love the yellow fogs, I think they would look good with the Mineral grey I have on order...can you tell us where you got them. Also, was the Gt badge you installed a direct fit/ replacement from the original?...Your car looks great, Thanks

Thanks John for the nice compliments.

Dave, the yellow fog covers were purchased on Ebay from Christi5555 for around $24.00 including shipping. They are Clear Bra 3M light covers. They are made for the 05 fog lights and come complete with instructions. Would take you about 20 min to install, Ponygirl just installed a set of them on her Yellow GT. After installation they look like they were made on there.
As for the emblems, I purchased them from T-N-T Mustang Connection from David Turner the co-owner, very cool guy. The emblems are actual 1968 GT repros. They are metal and not plastic. David removed the metal mounting tabs from the back and installed 3M tape in its place prior to shipping. They look awsome. If you go to the Exterior Mod Page on this forum and look for "New GT emblems installed" I have the whole process of removing the factory emblems. Good luck.

Here are some pictures after my car was pampered by a Zaino treatment!! I got the car in Oct, now it's 5 months later and I still like it and think it looks great! Unfortunately, the sun wasn't out when I took these today. This Sat, I get the windows tinted and I'll submit more pictures after that.

I have added pictures after the window tinting and another coat of wax. Also, if you notice, I have added a shorter atenna.

Ladies and gentlemen, the time is near! This thread is for photos of your '05s!
Here are some pics of my 05 Quicksilver GT. It is a satin silver premium Gt with a 5-speed and some upgrades: STEEDA high velocity cold air kit, JET chip, SLP "Loudmouth axleback with x-pipe. I am looking to put on the new BBK 62mm throttle body in the near future.

Guys.Hear me out.I would never run the underdrive pullies do to the folowing reasons.Back in 93 i was dragracing weekly with my 87 Buick GrandNational.I got down to 11.5 at 117mph with 1.55 60 ft,s with out running underdrive pullies wich my buddies with the same cars were saying put them on.Well soon after ,they started having isues with them.Batteries dying or cranking slow, detonation in engine do to voltage drop.Also, forget a good stereo.Your chassing small gains with a chance of problems in my eyes.Especialy now with all the electronics,shaker 1000,High voltage coils.look elsewhere for HP gains.Also I noticed, we are paying ridiculous prices for our go fast parts.

People used to upgrade to MSD ignition on there rides for beeter spark quality.What do you think happens to spark performance when you slow down the alternator?
