Hello From Ft Lauderdale, FL

Hello Guys,

Just joined the forum. Glad to be here as you have a great club going.

I am 46, have two great sons, engineer, and have a passion for American muscle cars, in particular Mustangs !

Currently have a 2011 Mustang 5.0, mostly a weekend toy, and I love it. So far I have done very little to it except:

1. 3M clear bra.
2. 3M flat black single hood stripe (Boss 302 type), lower rocker stripes and rear deck trim between tail lights.
3. Roush axle back exhaust.
4. Upgraded floor mats with Mustang tri-bar / pony logo.

Looking forward to participating and enjoying the forum.

Regards,
RBJ

Thank you very much Steve. What a nice set of ponies . . . all very cool.
I will post more pics at some point in time, but I also have a 1998 Mustang GT (I bought it new in Nov. 1998) - yellow, blk leather interior, 5 speed. My Brother has a 2009 Mustang GT California Special - blue with grey leather interior and 5 speed.
Hope to see you some time around. Take care.

Thank you Carlos! I love the 2012 Boss ..... such a great Mustang! Congrats and enjoy.

I got my clear bra from a local gentleman who runs his own company.
Toughfilm is the name of the company, and the gentleman's name is Abraham Philip (786-210-3843). He is super nice, does great work and will come to your house or business. Abraham has been doing this for a number of years, uses the best products, and does tons of work on exotic cars as well as for many dealerships in South FL (including Porsche, BMW and Mercedes).

I am very picky, and have been extremely satisfied. I am super happy with the clear bra. No more chips and paint damage from running on the highway at 80mph+ or getting trapped behind trucks carrying dirt and rocks! Well worth the investment.

Good luck!

Rafael, Be sure to also look up StangsOfSouthFlorida.com (SSF), which is a local group of mustang enthusiasts. I go by the same handle on SSF. We have lots meets, including the Patriot Day Run coming up on Sept. 10.

Thank you for the tip Steve. It would be nice to attend some local events. I used to all the time, and then little by little, with all other pressing matters, I just stopped. Would be nice to re-engage again. Much aprreciated.

I special ordered mine a year ago with the following: Grabber Blue, charcoal blk / garb blue leather interior, 6 speed, rapid spec 401A, premier trim w/color accent, security package, 3.73 gears, HID headlamps, and Brembo brake package.

Have fun with yours
