New guy a few ? need help

I just got a 2007 California Special & it will be here tomorrow. Its white with black. Are these cars limited or did they make as many as they could sale?
I also want to get a grille with the 2 fog lights are close together who makes that & post some pics ?
I have the Eibach springs that should be here Fri. Im also going to put the Shelby razor wheels 20X9s & wonder what size tire I should run. I have no problem with do a staggered setup.

Congrats on the new stang. Here's some info on the CS version you got.

You can buy the center fog light grille here.

Here's a pic.


If your willing to run a staggered wheel setup I'd say go with
255/40/20 in the front and 285/45/20 in the rear. You can go bigger than 285 in the rear if you want but I believe the front is maxed out at 255. I'm sure someone else will chime in if I'm wrong. You can also go higher or lower on the side profile size depending on the look your going for.


Thank you, come again.

I have no idea what to look for in the 20 inch stuff. I also looked for a Hurst shifter I cant find one anywhere.

It just so happens I have a Street Scenes grille (same as pictured above) that I won't be using since I opted to do a Shelby conversion. It's brand new in the box. If you're interested PM me!

How did you manage that? I seriously considered the package myself but the sales manager couldn't get it to accept the 13D spoiler delete.

FR281 congrads on your new ride. You wont be dissapointed. As far as the shifter goes is it an auto or manual? if it is an auto they dont make one yet. Hurst/B&M (they merged recently) are in the process of having one come out but it has been a while and may be a few more months. The engineer working on it posts on here alot and is doing his best. if it is a manual then Hurst currently makes one. And there is another brand I hear mentioned on here alot but I cant remember the name. Look under the GT mods section. GL
