I am in the process of working out getting the stock ones. I don't really like how these ones are looking either. I just like having everything on the car work.
I don't know how to get them off the bumper anyhow... That'll be the question when the new ones get here.
Slowly but surely, you're getting there - which is more than I can say for
myself.
The fog lights currently on the car look easy enough to remove - if all else fails, stop! hammer time!

I'm going to leave them be until I get the stock ones. At which point I'll try to take these off as best as possible without breaking, so I can sell them to a ricer.

Registration today. Just one step away... And I'm going to look at a new set of 235/45/17's w00t. The guy wants 15 bucks each just to get them out of his garage.

Meh, called the guy and they were already sold. 
On the other hand though... I woke up to a surprise this morning...
My dad was on the phone with the insurance company setting my car up with a plan. I just have to go to the DMV and get all the taxes/registration done (166 bucks) and I am on the road. XD

Should hopefully be done tomorrow.
I have the money, I just have to get my dad to bring me to the DMV since it's going to be in his name.

wow, only that much for taxes and reg!? Ours are based on weight, not vehicle's value so it doesn't decrease as the car gets older... Darn heavy trucks and SUVs contribute to killing the pavement quicker anyway, but I digress... Road trip this weekend?

Loose gravel+too much torque (is there really such a thing?) = very little traction. 
Scared the crap out of my friend, but other than that it was a very casual drive, but uneventful doesn't mean it wasn't the best drive I've ever done. Drove ~20 miles and the gas gauge is still pinned above the F. I wonder if that is broken... haha.

These cars tend to be a bit thirsty... Should probably start noticing it after you start it up again for another drive. FWIW, you won't really care because you're driving YOUR Mustang!
