Hey Steve where's all the pics you took on Saturday??

Brian-Found an even better deal on a CDC classic in matte black. It's only a few bucks less but they're much closer than Partshopper plus they actually have them in stock. With out further ado....
http://stage3motorsports.zoovy.com/product/CDC110020P

They've also got the best price on sequentials.
http://stage3motorsports.zoovy.com/product/CDC110630

Plus free shipping on everything.

Anybody else looking for a new mod at the best price???

Steve's too upset to upload the pics from the Meet. He's still trying to get over missing 3rd gear.

If only he had the MGW shifter....

I think Steve will be the first to breakdown and buy the shifter.

Tom will be a close 2nd!

I know he wants one, he's just trying to justify not buying it.

What do you guys think of Steeda' cupholder bezel??? I like how it doesn't join in the middle. Only problem is the quality doesn't look anywhere near as good as MGW or SHR. They offer it with no logo,steeda logo, ford logo.

Perhaps Leo's entertaining the idea of trading her in for a manual trans GT so he can install the MGW shifter?

You always said that if you had a second chance, Black wouldn't be your first choice..

Oops! Sorry, Leo. Didn't mean to get the gears turning in your head.

I never said Black wouldn't be my first choice. I just said if I'd seen VB I would've had a hard time chosing between the two. Who knows which one I'd of ended up with. As far as the stick shift deal goes I would more than likely have gotten it I knew how to drive it.

No way in hell I'm trading/selling this car after all the dough I've thrown into it. I'll probably keep this car forever. That doesn't mean I won't be buying another stang in 2020 give or take a few years depending on the incoming/outgoing bodystyle.

The bezel reminds you to much of????

I think you're right. It will be mine oh yes it will be mine! Eventually I'd like to check it out in Bill's car before I do buy it though. Then there's the convincing the Lady of the house that I need one!!

Seriously though. I looked at the pics that I took compaired to what everyone else has taken, and most of them are of the same things just different angles and such. There's maybe one or two that are ok. That's what happens when you let a 10 year old take most of the pictures

When you have kids Leo you will understand where I'm comming from


You've seen the toy collection in my garage...Champagne taste and Beer budget. I'll probably get the shifter, but not for a bit.

Maybe a cheap easy solution for valve covers

The guys on this forum claim they're shining there valve covers by applying Mothers billet polish with a Powerball. Doesn't look to bad for not having to take the valve covers off.

Duh. j/k

FWIW, I think the bezel looks ok, except for the offset logo. Plus the fact that steeda doesn't make most of their billet stuff...I think UPR does. Most all of Steeda's billet products look IDENTICAL to UPR's. I think UPR just puts Steeda's name on it, and then Steeda increases the price.

Yeah...I did this to mine last year. I saw someone at a local car show that had nice valve covers, and he told me about this trick (which is what he used on his).

I just used Mother's polish and a towel...no powerball.

Also, it works GREAT for the metal A/C lines, etc that look like crap.
