Where did you get the color panel? I thought at one time AM sold them but I've not seen any recently. The only thing I don't like on the exterior of my car is the black out panel on my '13.

I had my local paint shop paint the decklid since they did my spoiler too. (I had the gt/cs spoiler and had to get holes filled) The exhaust is a Magnaflow Competition. You'll see it on most sites as only for a 11-12 mustang, but it will work for a 13-14 as well.

Looks 10x better OP. Good work. I still like the way my 2011 looked all around... the factory deck lid plastic panels on the 13-14 look cheap imo. Thankfully my car is already black.

Yeah, I just can't deal with the taillights and unpainted rocker panels and bumper. I like 13-14 way better.

For everything it was about $650, but considering what I had done it wasn't that bad. I had my trunk holes welded and filled, spoiler paint matched and installed, decklid paint matched and installed, and two spots patched and wet sanded. The paint work was done at a hole in the wall BMW/Mercedes parts place owned by a German guy who happened to have a Mercedes dealership grade paint booth. I'm very happy with it.

Yes, removed all my GT/5.0 badges and replaced them with "Powered by Ford" badges. I like how people can't really tell what model I have when I'm on the road.

valence w/ Quads are definitely a nice touch.


I'm partial to black on white. The two contrast real nice with one another.
