Finally...!!

My over 20 year dream to own a Mustang has finally come true! I am now the very proud owner of a Vista Blue '09 Mustang Coupe, V6, manual. It is very stock, and a few years old, but seems to have been well maintained and the car shines like nobody's business.

I already have some cosmetic mods in mind, plus a couple equipment mods. For example, I'm going to convert to a dual exhaust system.

I'm really looking forward to any advice or recommendations other Pony owners may have, as I have absolutely no mechanical skills. As far as the new exhaust system goes, that will be installed by pros. The cosmetic changes I feel I can tackle myself, as they only include smoked light covers and striping. The spoiler for the back end will be installed by pros as well, even though the install looks fairly simple. But when it comes to drilling holes in things, I'd rather leave that to the professionals! But as there's no drilling required, I think I can handle the chin spoiler up front...

Anyway, hit me up if you have any tips or tricks you want to share. I'll be posting pictures of the mods as I get them done, and I'd really appreciate any feedback or advice I can get!!

Nice looking ride. I have some 06GT muffs you can have for free if that's the direction you are going in for your conversion. No idea of shipping costs, but I'd rather see them put to use rather than pitching them. They have 100 miles tops on them...
