some of my observations...
1. Projector mirrors are actually quite neat!
2. Wheels are ok (better in person then in pics) but they could use a little more push towards the fender lips. (spacers maybe?)
3. Front end looks real good. I really like it but it seems so much different then the shelby without the hood grill and/or the stripes.
4. The hood vents drain right onto the strut towers and fuse/relay box on the pass. side and possibly onto your cai on the drivers side. I noticed some drips on the factory airbox so it may be something we'll need to keep an eye on with an aftermarket cai.
5. Aftermarket Mufflers WILL MOST DEFINATELY mount up without issue. I have roush mufflers and they installed just like on the 12.
6. The interior seat stitching and the steering wheel stitching is a nice touch I didn't remember being on the 12. Seats seem to look more "high end" then the carbon look from 11-12
7. Rear of the car is gorgeous. I personally don't think there are going to be huge problems keeping the area between the taillights free from scratching.
I have a white car and the rear of the car looks amazing.
8. Track apps and the 4.2" display is a nice and much needed feature. I did a trial run from 0-60 and it did it in 5.2 seconds including some wheelspin.
9. select shift is kind of a joke if you want to bang gears. God for holding gears though going through town. I'm anxious to se how it reacts once I get the tune for it. (steeda said hopefully by the end of the month.)
10. the fogs look good to me with the hids. The fogs may be have a little more yellow to them but it's not a huge difference and to me they seem to be closer to the headlight color then the 12 I had was.
Overall I'm about 90% happy with the restyle with the verdict on the wheels still undecided. I'm sure with some counseling I may be able to accept them in time.

The lip is similar to the 12 boss splitter in size but it looks more integrated into the bumper cover as opposed to the sorta added on look of the 12. I'm not sure if the 13 boss uses the exact splitter as the 13 cs but I would be willing to bet it is. the rear splash shields remind me of the gt500 ones that I had installed on my 12.

Fog question someone else already answered but I thought the fogs looked ok with the headlights.

I'm still dying for the '13 CS/Boss front splitter to be available for purchase. It's the only thing on the CS that I'm dying to have on my GT Premium.
Love the CS as a package, though. Looks great in every color.
