Found a GT that is Red Candy that i just love. Lowered it and put the GT500 spoiler on it. I really think this is all these cars really need. Maybe a chin spoiler. What do you guys think you will do with your '11?

 

I've got a Kona Blue 2011 GT on order. I plan on having the lower rear bumper (diaper), rocker panel moldings, and grill surround painted body color. My initial plan was to replace the front facia with the one from Roush. After having seen the California Special, though, I decided that I want to use the CS air dam. On the California Special the air dam is largely unpainted but I want mine painted except for the pockets where the fog lights would go. Finally, Silverhorse Racing flush mount quarter window louvers. I suppose I might consider lowering it an inch. No rear spoiler for me.

 

I plann on doing suspension (srt.t's and steeda sports) and then seeign if i need anything else suspension wise. And then hopefully something performance wise will come out. Probably going to get an intake and Al driveshaft and a 93 tune.

 

I might swap out the wheels and tires. Not a big fan of any of the factory wheels (accept for maybe the 2010 GT 500s), so I just ordered with the base wheel/tire combo. For aftermarket, I'm really liking the ASA AR9s.

 

Wheels, tires, lowering, front air dam, keep it subtle.

 

Ground Force lower kit, 18" wheels/tires, maybe a duck tail spoiler... still debating on a CDC chin spoiler - the OE bumper scrapes a bit on my lowered '05 GT...

Painting the grille surround, Sylvania SilverStar bulb upgrades, 3dCarbon Headlight Splitters

Borla "S-Type" Axle-Back
SilverHorse Racing's Pre-Painted Flush-Mount Louvers



Considering fascia & badge changes ... a-la LX

 

This for sure. Actually, I may leave the grill surround black.

 

I really like the window louvers and I read the instructions for replacing them but not comfortable enough with doing that to my own car. Anybody know about how much it would cost to have them installed? Is it worth having the dealer do them when the car comes in and before I pick it up?

Any auto glass company can do the glass to louver swap pretty cheap, biggest problem with those flush louvers is that you have to cut down the interior panel to fit.

 

Your car looks really good, I love Red Candy, but you need to lose that Hub City logo unless you are getting paid to have it.

 

As of right now here is my plan:
2011 Black 5.0 Brick Red interior
Sec. pak / HIDs / 3.73s / Spoiler Delete / Brembo Brake Pak

GT 500 Wheels and Front End(maybe)
Lowered
Tinted windows
Saleen Rear bumper
Either dual red stripes / single offset left

Thats about it. Opinions any1?

 

If I can find a picture of a black 2010 GT with grabber blue stripes i'll probably do those if they look good, other than that just a GT500 spoiler and tinted head/tail lights.

 

I'm going to replace the dealer license plate frame with a plain metal one. I might even throw caution to the wind and go with chrome.

 

See sig for my planned mods

 

Black with red interior and red stripes will be beautiful.

 

Roush Fascia & Splitter or GT/CS lower fascia
GT500 rear valance
GT500 or Roush Spoiler
Painted Sideskirts
Blackout vinyl for between taillights

 

Thanks. How do u think the GT500 front and Saleen rear will make the car look with the red stripes?

Or should I leave it stock and add the stripes?

Dual stripes in red are what I'm leaning towards.

 

I like that license plate frame. That's phat!

 

It'll look cool, but it's going to be expensive.

 

Hmmm, hadn't thought of the license plate frame. Might do that.

First thing, Zaino. Really looking forward to this. I don't KNOW a car until I've done this.

Down the road:
GT500 chin spoiler (don't like CDC - looks like a snow plow)
Maybe white stripes - on the fence
