I was just thinking about that today. I'm 42 and never thought I would see the day when I would be into buying mods for my car.

Started out with a GT rocker stripe, then a dash kit, followed by a shorty antennae. Now I'm looking for wheels and seriously thinking about Rally stripes. I'm already eyeing a set of Flowmasters and a cool air kit.

This is a sickness I tell you! A sickness!!

:bang:

I think she got my the chin spoiler. and or ducktail. I know its multiple things is all I know for sure tho. Cant wait to open em up!

Congrats on the 1st mod!

Well, I opened up the presents!
She played it smart, and didnt get me a ducktail or chin spoiler due to the fact she didnt know which one I wanted.
But I got the WebElectric Sequencial Harnesses!
And the Zaino Ultimate Protection Show Kit.

Im a happy camper, but will be even happier when the car gets here!

Rich, glad to hear I'm in good company. Nice add-ons by the way.

The aftermarket industry must be getting a huge boost from all the passion the 05 Mustang has brought back into the industry.

OK, why didn't somebody tell me about those cool intake covers from Midwest? I just had to go find that "other" mod section. I thought that I had everything covered in the Exterior and Interior sections, then I had to go see what "other" was............

I tried to tell my wife that I NEEDED something for under the hood???? I need a drink, I'm mean another mod!!!!!!

OK, it's offical - I'm :crazy:

Just got in my stubbie 9" antenna, and my car is 2 months (at least) out. Who orders parts with no car???? (I guess I do) Well, I've got the MGW stuff on order, samples of floor mats, probably going to order CDC seq lights this week, the woodview dash kit, and thinking about a running pony dash decal from Bob White's. Whew, I'm going to spend my frist car payment.........

This site rocks for some great ideas, I can't want to post the pixs!!

If that Mustang doesn't hurry up and get here, there won't be any room left in the garage. It's filliing up with parts boxes fast!

Amen to that, thankfully most of what I'm buying now is small stuff. Just order 68 "Mustang" scirpt to maybe put on my dash....... It was only $10, if I don't like it I can put it on my mailbox or something. Going to another paint shop today to get another estimate........send me money!!!!!!!

I think the majority of us did that. I had floormats, intake cover, Zaino and the Redline Hood Shocks before I was scheduled.

ain't it the truth.....

I have a intake cover, more smoked corners and window louvers waiting on mine, plus everything I am going to take off my 05 before I sell it. Its definitely an addiction.

Can you say addiction?

I ordered a MGW Gripper Shift **** (with running pony) the day I ordered my GT and have bought something new every month that Ive been waiting and Shadow is scheduled to be build Sept. 5th.

Im hording the shifter, a K&N drop filter, the tri-bar running pony fender badges and have spinners on the way right now.

Just needed a little something to feed the habit. You buy something small and then it snowballs into having garage sales to make extra cash for more. Whats this world coming to?! Ford needs an 800 hotline for mod addicts!
