Looks awesome! Congratulations! The Recaros will change your life. I get almost just as many compliments on the seats as I do the car. lol

I just ordered up my ford Motorsport power pack (GT500 mufflers and procal tuner)
I will put the mufflers on right away, and get the tune installed at the dealer ( to keep my warranty) when I get about 1,500 mi. On the car and it's broken in properly!
I can't wait to hear those mufflers!

I drove mine through a secluded canyon today with many twisties, so lots of shifting through 2-4th. The echo of these mufflers is like a choir singing in a cathedral.

Keeps oil and oil vapor out of the intake manifold!
This is a real problem with the 5.0. That oil causes a loss in octane on the fuel, and gums up everything in your intake over time!

Easy mods next, hood struts and sound tube delete. Then the axle back of your choice (love the GT500s) and an MGW shifter!

And finally, replace the factory 6x8s speakers in the doors, you can get a huge upgrade for under $100 from Amazon.

You are lucky you can enjoy your new Mustang now, we are still freezing up here in the Northeast...
I see you're in Southern NH. Me too. Us Mustang people are a rare commodity in this part of the world. When my car arrives we'll have to catch up some time.

What did you use to tint the reflectors and side markers? Tint from AM?

Been wanting to do this to mine.. Did you have to remove anything to tint it? Thanks!

Indeed, I am looking forward to nice weather coming back now that we dodged that big nor'easter (screw the Cape! Bwahahaha!). I can be found hanging out at Murphy's Taproom once or twice a month for 2$ drafts on a Friday afternoon.

I bought a tint kit off eBay for $35 that had precut tint for all the lights on the car, I just used some of them!

The video they have is installing on the headlights, (dont even remove them from car) and it looks great!

Gonna try the same with the reflectors...
