Shelby used to have a good set of instructions on line in pdf but it seems they have removed them. They stopped making the set I have and are doing a redesign.

The honeycomb panels have 4 little tabs (2 top and 2 bottom) on each piece that snap into place on teh bumper cover. When you remove them its just a smooth blank area that is solid except for the 4 slits from where the tabs go. Both the Shelby and A47 kits require this area to be cut up. The Shelby kit uses small nuts and bolts to hold the inlets in place. You see teh screws on teh face and the backside has the nuts. You have to drill 5 holes through the blank area behind the honeycombs and its the bumper cover basically. That provides the backing to keep the inlets in place. Basically the same for the A47 except the screw in from teh back. You drill 4 holes in the same area and screw through the bumper cover to the inlet to hold them in place. They are both very secure for sure.

Hey all!
Just dropping by to see what's been going on. Been busy helping parents around their place since Dad really isn't able to fix stuff anymore, he's been getting really bad lately, can hardly stand on his own without aid, won't be long before he's stuck in a chair. Talk about losing ones independence! Driving will be next.
Nothing worse than watching your parents grow old and know that soon they'll be gone.
I also have HPS's and yes they do put out quite a bit of dust, especially on the rears.
Whole wheat here
Gary, Car is a beast with those new wheels!
So what is the final floor plan like for the new McMansion your building?
Jill- Never new we had a GFL, what did HB and son think about end result? Bad weekend for sports around here!
Nathan- Love that new band too!

nah, he was in the grocery store shopping as usual on a Sunday afternoon. I actually met him while I was working there, he was the first person I knew with a 05 GT, now the first with a 5.0.
I've got some on mine, they're not bad. They've worked quite well the couple times I've needed them to. The HPS pads do put out some brakedust, I see it on the rim about every 2 weeks.
Am still loving the Stingers too! Man love going under bridges or tunnels, sounds like a NASCAR race
since we're on sammiches...white or wheat bread?
I'm going wheat, just has a better taste I think

I'll have to try and figure out how to post it up in IV or something.
It's not digitized. I still had draw, so I'll have to see if I can reduce enough to put into a scanner.

uploading 53 pics to photobucket. 161.9mb. Not sure what my limit is 
BTW the car stops on a dime now. Oh crap these brakes stop the car. Amazing. And the tires hold too.
I was on the freeway and was about to exit on a cloverleaf type access road. I waited longer than I ever have to slow down from 90 to make the turn. The car just slowed so quickly with brakes I actually could have waited a little longer to brake before the turn.

I know.
The key is to not make any mistakes or changes.
When I didn't like the entry on my own house plan, I had to completely redraw the entire set of plans to make the changes I needed.
Years ago when I started this the residential drafting software was very expensive and lacked alot of detail. Today its so much better, but I just need to take the time to switch over and I have yet to have the desire.

I'm serious when I say this. 2.5" cowl hood with matte black vinyl stripes and I'm done folks. At least I'll be done with the exterior. I'll be rid of the hood scoop and also the "nipples" that are the hood pins.
Of course I still will need a driveshaft, a clutch and flywheel upgrade, and some underhood pieces.
Plus I have a blown rattling mid speaker in the door that is annoying the crap out of me now. I hate it when that happens.

Yes, the price has come down quite a bit, but it is still pricey. I use a Lite version and it still cost several hundred dollars. Then you have the learning curve. but once you've built your "blocks" then the rest is a piece of cake. I was self taught and I still learn new things to do with it and that is 2 years of part time use.

So what was the mod that completely changed her? Was it the brake ducts? Or what?

Gary, what speakers are you running for your highs/mids in your doors? I'm thinking about making a ported box for my sub, but I need to have more high to offset the more amounts of bass that thing will pump out
And I also made a truck mod today! And I'm also feeling the bite of the massive mod bug
But this one was free! I took the plastic valence off the bottom of my bumper. 2.5 inches more bumper to ground clearance, and from the front you can look under and see the very bottom of the rad support and some of the I-Beams, looks a lot more 4x4. And the suspension and what not isn't any more exposed now than before to debris and stuff, because that valance was just flapping around in the middle, held on by 2 bolts within an inch of each other on each side.Free, optical illusion lift
