It is finally here! Ordered in July, and delivered last Thursday (9-9-05) eve. I could only drive it from the dealer to home (7 miles ) cause had to go out of town. That trip seemed to last forever. But I was able to brib the stripe guy to do my stripes that night. Saturday morning I cleaned it up and added all my mods.

Here is what I have done: Stripes, Pony badges, chrome fuse box cover, Corsa exhaust, Pony trunk lid mat, CDC duck tail spoiler, Biller a/c *****, new leather shift boot and arm rest cover, MRT shift ****, better floor mats, 1" wheel spacers, Razzi window scoops and 1st coat of Zaino.


Biggest complaint? The billet ***** don't have stops built in, so you can keep turning the a/c control and the lights don't shine thru. Does anyone make billet ***** w/ stops?

Here are a few pics. . . . .

How does the Corsa exhaust sound? MGW makes great quality ***** with stops.

Looks great man. I heard that the new UPR AC ***** have stops and the light shines through better. I want to hear some clips of your Cosa exhaust. They sound better than anthing I've heard on their website. Too bad they're sooo expensive just for the axle backs.

Wow, that looks awesome!! Do you have chrome trim around the rear tail lights?? I've seen it before and didn't think it looked that good, but man it looks killer on your car with those stripes!

White has never been a favorite color of mine, but everytime I see one of the new Mustangs in White, I always find myself thinking how awesome it looks. It just goes so well with the body I suppose.

Those stripes look good too. Just curious what it costs for the ducktail spoiler. I have the factory spoiler, but the ducktails I keep seeing seem to add a lot of character to the cars already good looks.

Not sure if this is the same brand, but I heard somebody else having this same problem w/ no stops and you just need to push 'em in a but futher. If you already tried that, just ignore!

Oh yeah, nice looking car. What brand spacers did you use and did you have any problems?
