+1, but not for reasons of selling the car. I just didn't want to put my name on the plaque when Chris gets the car. Vice versa, didn't want have the car now with Chris' name on it.

SEMA posters!

This is just 4 of the 27 posters I brought back for Chris.

The line went something like this...

Me: Can I get one signed for my son, Chris? He couldn't make it, he's almost 13.

Jed (standing off to the side): Chris sure is a lucky kid!

Me: He sure is! I gotta bring him back something from Vegas!

All the Models thought that was pretty cute.

Did this 27 times!

Thanks Tom! I need to now go back and catch-up on the Turbo install thread. Now that I've heard the description in person I am really excited to see how it turns out. Customer Service SNAFUs aside sounds like GMS did right on this one.
That was fun, but I wish we had a place to go where I really could have opened her up! It was great meeting you in person, Brian!

No customer service problems for me - they've been great!

I also haven't received anything yet, I don't think Jon is going to be there, he'll be on his Honeymoon I think. Should find something out at the meeting next week.

In fact, they sent me 1/2 blue coupler hoses and 1/2 black coupler hoses.

J.R. said that was a mistake, so they are right now working on getting all the blue hoses replaced to black ones (and the kit normally comes with all blue ones).

Blue is the only option, but because of the mix-up, they are going out of their way to get me all black.

Sent the engine bay emblem guy this pic asking if he could do something similar.


I asked if he could replace "bullit" with Mustang GT and replace vehicle # with owner and build date.

+1 Leo... that would look good for yours, George!

Here's what I ended up with (in the brushed aluminum, not white):

Attachment 35210 (but with my VIN and build date, & clearer Ford emblem.)

Actual size is 6.85" x 2.677", by the way to fit into that outline.

I actually was thinking of what to put in that spot the night before we all started talking about it. I then went to work and started asking the guys what would look good there. The next post by Bill was about the tags.

I've decided (for now) not to trim the engine cover on the shaker when I reinstall it. Mostly because I don't want to pull the valve covers to paint them, and I know I will want to.

I may have to do some trimming around the turbo, though.

Is there any way to trim the back off and leave the sides and still make it look good? I would consider that if it looked good (and the bathtub would be gone)... and if water management was still in place.
