Hello. Glad to be here!

I have been using this forum's tips, suggestions and ideas since I got my 2013 GT 2 months ago. Thought I should join.


Got it with 3000 miles on it in March. Has Brembo, Recaro, 373s, sync/shaker, back up camera. Added CDC grill, lowering springs, PHB, MHT forged wheels 20x9 and 20x10, Polk speakers, 2013 GT500 quad exhaust and CS fogs.

Under the fogs are just cheep running lights. As for adding a GT500 rear valance, I just hate the textured black plastic. Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome!

The '13-'14 already have daytime running lights though, right? Why is there a need for a second?

Is thats what missing? I love the GT500 quad exhaust but on OP's they look a bit off. Besides that the car looks great.

Yes. I thought about the GT500 lower valance. Hate the plastic. Any ideas other than cutting the tips to look more flush?

I'm glad you said it. I was thinking "is this really how they are supposed to look?" Yeah, get the valence and paint it like DD said. BOOM!

Where did you get that lower grill delete trim piece? Did you cut the lower bumper to fit the quad tips?

Thanks for all the feedback. Also, two great questions from Earlsays. I made the lower front grill delete. Didn't want to spend another $300 for one. Yes, I carefully cut the rear oem valance. I got the idea from a custom 2013 from Fastlane Motorsports. They cut the oem lower valance for the quad tips. I copied what they did.

dude you can paint the valance and there is more cheap black plastic looking parts on the mustang,, they all can be painted. I painted my fog light trim & tag trim,.

The front looks good, I'm about to order those front grill and guess what I'm going to paint them..
