WOW! That looks great. And everyone knows that black is the fastest color. (but what a PITA to keep clean)

They do look great when all cleaned up as most dark colors do.

Thanks for the Kudo's!

Thanks for the compliment and glad we like the same color Shelbys!

I will try to get some more pics soon!

Regards,

Phil

PS. Just noticed that you have a 2011 Mustang GT 5.0 Premium - Black/Dark Charcoal. That is an awesome Mustang as well! We can both be very proud

Phil the car is AWESOME!! Looks even better than i envisioned, easily the best color combination hands down. You've got some good taste. It should keep you busy keeping her clean but its well worth it. Nothing looks better than a black car. Like they said, black is the fastest color. Congratulations, i hope you enjoy every minute of it.

Cheers

Thanks Marin! We both have & like black Mustangs!

Lots of work but the results IMHO are most worth it!

Thanks again,

Phil

How is the stick? Is there any way to get the Tremec without the short throw?

Thanks Jay. Actually, my wife does not care for the side stripes either, but I like them because of the GT500 as part of the decal. Fun car to drive for sure though!
Thanks again,
Phil

That's funny Justin!!! My GF (wife) of 33 years told me to buy it and would rather have me out cleaning & polishing the car in my shop than bothering her sometimes! At least she knows where I am at at all times

Have a good day!

Unknown John.... I like the shift pattern and the way it shifts. However in previous manual transmission cars from many years ago that I have owned, the throw of the shift was always longer. The short throw is different to me but seems fine. Just something to get used to. I have not power shifted it hard & fast yet, as I am going to take it easy for a while until I get some miles on it. I would think with the short throw though, it should do fine. Still liked the old 4 speeds with the "T" that you lifted to put them in reverse. (Showing my age here...LOL!!!)

Phil
