Hi again.

Well, it's been a while since I have been on the forums. I picked up my black 2012 GT on June 8th and have been busy with the mods and getting some miles on the car, already up to almost 5k miles. The mods began the minute I got the car home, here is a list of what I've done so far.

JLT oil separator
JLT CAI
Boss Manifold
BBR 91 octane performance tune
Steeda Tri-axle shifter
Barton shifter bracket
Steeda HD strut mounts
Steed sport springs
Koni STR.Ts
Fays2 watts link
SHR flush mount quarter louvers
SHR billet fuel door
MRT rear window louvers

Attached some crappy iPad pics, hope to add more eventually. Rained last night, but waiting for it to not be in the forecast everyday to wash her.

Very nice man. Congratulations on your 5.0. 5K. In a month!!!! Wow! How do you like the Steeda suspension? Im concerned about traction from a dig if I lower my car. My buddy lowered his and traction went out the window but handling is sweet.

At the moment I haven't really had any traction issues, but trying to workout some kinks with the watts link. It jasmine and my brothers first time working with one and I'm pretty sure we didn't get it on completely right. Going to get the alignment double checked while I'm at it cause it pulls just barely to the left. I didn't have time to get the alignment done before I had to leave CA since I was waiting on the koni's to deliver to get the suspension put on. They arrived at about 6pm the night before. If I do have any traction issues though a relocation bracket and some better LCA's will probably be in the works.

Looks too stock from the front. Needs more cowl hood!

Looking great, Todd. I love the rear window louver.

Will be getting the Steeda fascia and probably the hood eventually. Also considering the tufiber vented fenders. Have a few more performance mods in mind still too, but won't go into detail on that till I actually have it planned out.

The only real hard part about the fuel cap is getting the rubber boot into place. You drill the 4 clips out of the stock plastic piece before taking off the fuel door, then a rubber boot type item goes over the filler neck and you just screw the new gas cap on. You actually need to use a decent sized drill bit to drill the clips, I think that took longer than the rest of the instal because we couldn't figure out how much to drill.
