That's what I'd like to do with my MCA grill when/if it ever arrives ... I really think that looks MUCH better !!

At 1st glance I could not "see" the satin side stripes ... made that 1st side image full screen and ahhhh there thay are. I LIKE it, nice and stealthy ... now if they were made of "3M Reflective" tape like the '69 Mach & Boss 302, it would be even better.

Should've used the MCA grille (Grey) for the GT/CS and the GT/CS grille (Chrome) for the MCA Edition. it would match the headlights better too seeing as the V6 has chrome surrounds and the GT/CS has grey surrounds.

I can't believe I never noticed that before! I'm going with the HID's' on the MCA though - for some reason all of the orange in the stock lights bug the sh*t outta me.

When I was at the Detroit auto show I thought the seats were black with the
carbon inserts. Those pictures make them look dark gray with black inserts.....
say it isnt so.

Great observation! Also why is the performance package V-6 getting the black painted 19in. rims when the CS gets the argent or gray rims due to all the black accenting on the CS? Makes no sense!

I don't get what you mean by "fake scoops galore"? The only scoops on the GT/CS are on the sides. Different strokes...

If it's not functional, then don't put it on there. Plain and simple.

Wheels & tires, splitters, etc. I'm just not a fan of fake scoops and inlets, that's all. The hood scoop (aside from the Shaker hood) on the 2010+ looks awful. The side scoops look decent, but aren't functional. If they were molded in and functional (a la C6 Z06) then I might reconsider.

+1 dating back to the 60's scoops have always been 95% of the time been for looks. Previous posts of mine cover this subject in detail.

The pedestal spoiler and the 10+ hood scoop are simply overkill in every regard and look ridiculous. I loved the hood scoop on the 07-09 Mustang though. It fit very flush with the hood and didn't look like such a blatant stick on part like the new one does. Putting a hood scoop on a hood bulge is rather odd in the first place. Now if the 10+ hood was flat I think the new scoop would look a lot better.
