Greetings - A Bit About Me - Let It Begin
What's up everyone. I would like to start off with saying how helpful everyone has been in these forums without even knowing you were being helpful to me. I have been lurking around here reading for quite some time just taking in all the information I could possibly take in. So I just wanted to thank everyone for all the information that gets spilled out here everyday. 
Now, my name is Terry and I live up in little ol' Amarillo, TX and have had my 06 Yellow GT for about 2 years. I have done absolutely nothing to this car as of today. Not much car wise goes on around here so I have not really had a reason to really get involved in anything Mustang. I have always loved them since high school, but never really been into modding them. Well, times have changed and my best friend of 18 years has moved home from Virginia after getting out of the Navy and he brought his 04 Comp Orange Cobra back with him along with an unstoppable passion for Mustangs and the modification of them. So, I guess I am going to go ahead and start tinkering around with mine and see what kind of trouble I can get into.
And so it begins. I figured I would post a quick list of what I went ahead and ordered just so everyone can see where I am starting and give any opinions, ideas, or just flat out talk about whatever. So, here it goes:
1. JLT CAI (Screaming Yellow Edition) I know it is only painted yellow, but yellow is such in important color that there should be a special edition.)
2. Pypes O/R H-Pipe and JBA Axle Backs (Two things, why is it so hard to grab H-Pipes anymore? They used to be the
and now it is all about the X. I guess I am still kind of old school and still like the low pitch of the old fashion H! Oh, and all it took was http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=7mRUyoQZjUw to get me to want that combo.)
3. BamaChips Tune w/ X3 Tuner(I guess I could of threw this up with the CAI, but I figured Doug deserved his own number.)
4. MGW Short Throw Shifter w/ Stops and GT Composite **** (Are these things not just ridiculous? The engineering that appears to go in to these shifters looks amazing!!!)
5. CDC Dynamite Stick Tail Light Sequencer (These just make the tail lights look PIMP!!!)
6. Alpine iDA-x001 iPod Deck (Two questions. Who has the Skipper 500? Who would like to take their Skipper 500 and take a shotgun to it? I hate that stupid deck. Anyways, I never use CDs and thought this was a pretty sweet deck.)
Anyways, I guess that is about it. I figured I could put a couple little performance mods on and a couple appearance mods just to get things rolling. I hope I didn't bore everyone to death and if I did then
. I hope to keep seeing everyone around and keep all the great info. coming!!!

Hey Terry welcome. I'm just east of you on I-40 (Mustang, Ok). Like David said you need to come east to some of our shows. The Shelby meet in Tulsa is huge. We have the Mustang Stampede in Mustang, Ok every September. Maybe you can make it over here and show off your ride.

Here are a couple pics before I do anything to the car. The Cobra is of course the aforementioned friend of mine. And I do hope to be able to make some OK events since nothing EVER happens around here.
Peace...

Welcome and awesome pics!!
Ive always had a thing for Cobras especially CO but I have to admit Im not a fan of the Stalker front bumper on the one above.
The Polished wheels look sick, I cant remember seeing them on another yellow 05.
Be sure to let us know how the mods turn out, and if you have questions come straight to me- I love to spend other peoples money!

Yeah, he didn't like it either. He put something on a couple weeks ago, but not sure what. He is looking to take all the body stuff back to stock, but he can't find the parts. So, if anyone knows where to get some stock '04 Cobra parts let me know so I can pass it along.
