Shots of my Kona 5.0, Spenser

I have been looking online and I can't find where I posted any pics of my kona blue with Billit upper and lower grill, cdc chin spoiler and shr flush mount louvers. Still can't figure out what I want to do with stripes. I have a buddy who does high end detailing (Lambos, Ferarris, Porsches) who owes me a huge favor so I think this summer I'm going to get this thing wet sanded and polished BIG TIME. Be nice if I made a stripe decision by then.

As a note Spenser is the name I've given my car after the Robert B. Parker character.

That looks nice, Eric. Especially the SHR louvers! I've toyed with the idea of adding stripes some day. Anyway, if you go to www.graphic-express.com/01_ford_2010_mustang.asp they have a lot of stripe packages to choose from, and a ton of colors. Although with Kona Blue, probably the only colors that would look really nice would be white or silver. Personally, I fancy the K370, the K392-S10, and the K190 stripes packages.

Killer looking car. Look forward to seeing what you end up doing stripe wise. Have you narrowd down stripe color?

Mine will look very similar, hope to have by 1st of summer (ordered 3/18).

Pleased with the Bartons?

Dave,
I love the barton shifter and bracket. There has been a learning curve for me with regard to reverse. But, the shifts are short and tight. I'm sure steeda has a quality shifter as well, but I was really intrigued by the 20% SHORTER SHIFTS. Good luck with your car.

The electronics package is definitely a worth the bucks mod. If you can comfortably afford it, I would recommend it. I use travel link several times per week especially now, "CHECK FUEL PRICES" I love the loading up songs on my hard drive. I was never really into music, but now I'm jamming pretty much constantly. The nav system is very solid. The bluetooth is fantastic as are the many voice commands.

Thanks Eric, appreciate it, and I did include it (electronics).

Also just read yours and others thoughts on the electronics pk on another thread. What I figured. I looked up its owners manual on the Ford site the other night and was going to print it off until I saw it would take a whole ream of paper.

Love the Kona Blue / Chrome / Brembo wheel contrast. Breathtaking - too many of these with RTR's or Nurburgring blackouts or near-blackouts. Factory spoiler is nice and subtle as well, excellent work.

Very nice tried to convince my local buddy with a candy apple red 5.0 premium to do the billet upper&lower grilles combined with the cdc chin just to be different, instead he's going cs fascia&fogs. It looks great on your car very nice contrast with the kona&light colored wheels. What are your other planned mods?

Thanks...
Other planned mods include upgrading the sound system so that I have a cleaner sound. It's a little, "Muddy" at anything over 33% volume, at least to me it is. Also looking to get steeda sport springs and some koni's from Sam Strano. Also interested in maybe getting a few more ponies via exhaust.

Cosmetically MAYBE some stripes in matt or a silver/grey metallic.

Then again, I enjoy it just the way it is. So Who knows?
