08 GT/CS Modifications
 
9 Attachment(s)
Hey Guys & Gals,

My first modifications on the exterior of my 08. Rear Window Louvers and Eleanor's are installed. Happy Birthday to me - next week it will be the front end: Shaker Hood & Hood Pins. Yahoo!

Only difficulty was with the Eleanor's in that the inside is not painted - white is their color. So to install the screens you need to paint the inside black so as not to look weird from the interior. Kind of a pain.

Purchased the products from Mustang Muscle. Louvers took about 2 hours & the Eleanor's took about 4 hours.

I like the rear window louvers, which ones are they? Personally, I'd rock them wingless with tint, that's it.

Rick, thanks for the "heads up". Thursday I intend to cut the Shaker Hook and following that install the hood pins! Yahoo! As the great American Philosophical Film "Top Gun" says,
