That's an excellent idea. I'll be waiting for your results.

Saw a 2013 GT for the first time today at the local dealership. The rear looks really good in Black, Sterling Grey, and also White from what I've seen so far. The GT's I saw did not have the fogs in the upper greille either.....Liking it. Gotta say, the 2013 Mustang is growing on me.

). How sweet it would have been if my cars ETA was within a day or 2 of that and actually followed through.

Yeah I think the only stangs this year with grille fogs are non-MCA/CS/Boss GTs. Not even PP V6s IIRC. Those fogs are one of my favorite styling points so glad my GT will have them. I seem to be in the minority lately though. Changing styles & tastes, I guess. The Roush grilles are hot though, even without fogs.

That white looks really good probably because it's a CS and the lower middle part of the rear is either plastic Or Painted black. Breaks it up better IMO.
Also some colors make the rear look horrific. Not liking the red.

I think the blues work but not as well as black, silver, gray, and white. Or any car with black stripes. Except red.
Who would have thought that this rear would probably cause more problems than the last one did. (in the long run)
I really think a majority like the taillights, but the shiny plastic back panel is a real problem.

Can we get our photoshop crew in here to see what the 13 rear will look like when we paint the license plate plastic cladding the same color as the car. Im sure who ever fulfills this request first will be widely praised for there efforts. For this is probably the most unpopular addition to the new mustang.
This is how I would do it, paint the outside pieces and leave the plate surround black.

Yeah, my hood vents are just fine.
Well...they will be when they're put on the car, whenever that is.
