I've always thought that that's the bumper that I wanted but now I've just completely made up my mind.

I need mirror covers too
I think the GT/CS front will look great on your car. I like the spoiler delete with fanblades. Nice car !

The mirror covers are Midwest Auto Gear, super easy to put on and a very nice paint job.

Thanks for the compliments. I didn't get to order my car but my only requisites were spoiler delete and 18" wheels. This was the closest I could get to what I wanted and I love it!

Those GT/CS wheels look great on an already well put together package.

Thanks for the link. After my wedding at the end of this month, I will start modding slowly...

Took the PBF emblems off today and replaced them with alloy painted "GT" emblems. The rear faux cap was already painted alloy, the PBF emblem was the only chrome remaining on the exterior.

Whoa Dez! That faux gas camp skull emblem is bad ***! I stumbled across your car in a google search and had to join to see where you bought that! Did you buy it as is somewhere or have it custom made?

Here are the pictures of my old 2007, taken from Lance Cunningham Ford's website. It appears as though they've already sold it, too.

Taken last month at Mid America Motorplex, near Pacific Junction Iowa. 2.23 mile road course.

A couple of photos while on the track and one in the paddock area with other Roush Mustangs.












A better quality photo while on the track

Put smoked lenses on today. I really like the way they look with alloy. Also changed from FRPP chrome to blue valve covers.

I was going to have a friend who owns a custom chrome plating shop polish them. He said plating would be easier to maintain so he plated them.
He was impressed with the quality of the aluminum and the welds on the Moroso tanks.

Thanks!! I sent him an email! Btw, how much HP and TQ did you pick up with the FRPP intake manifold? and what are all your bolt on mods? The intake looks killer in your engine bay!

Thanks !! I originally had a C&L CAI and Steeda UDP's. This spring I added Kooks LT's, the FRPP throttle body and H.R. cams. I gained 30 R.W.H.P., when I added the FRPP intake it was good for an additional 18 R.W.H.P.
as I write this I am not sure of the torque gains. I also had 4.10's installed at the same time.
I am very pleased with the intake, the car seems to idle smoother and for some reason sound better, maybe it has to do with air flow ?
One of the best mods was the 4.10's I am now a true believer, should never have bothered with 3.73's.

I might have to into getting mine plated. I tried polishing mine last winter and although they came out looking great... your comments about maintaining them is 100% correct as thet scratch very easy along with needing constant "touching up".

Car looks great. Love the stance. I was fortunate to win a set of 2011 GT500 SVT wheels and tires at a raffle held on Mustang Alley at the Woodward Dream Cruise. I love the wheels everything seems better, handling, steering, turn in, even the ride.
