Gloss Black 5.0 Badges
Pypes pipe bomb axle back exhaust.
MGW Shifter (already paid, just waiting for it to finish production and show up)
My List of mods wanted now are:
JLT/Steeda CAI and Bama tune
X/H Pipe
CS front valence with Boss splitter
Switchbacks for turn signals, and LED reverse lights.
Lowering springs with struts and supporting suspension mods
I cannot decide what would be a better package to last me until early spring. Lets get some input on what will keep me happy longest.

Storm, you did it right going with the mgw. First and best mod, IMO. Not sure how pypes sounds, but I am sure it sounds fantastic. For your next set of mods, I'd prolly go lowering springs. Not only is the stock 4x4 look hideous, but lowering on eibach or Steeda or K springs helps significantly with handling.

^ Yea. I ordered that **** MGW about a month ago, and i called the other day and they still said another 3-4 weeks.. quite annoying personally, but since its the best out there I guess I can wait.. i ordered the from bumper and led lights f & R for the time being.
I am torn between the H&R super sports, the Eibach sportlines, and the frpp K springs. I want to go low, while still being able to fit a 305 tire in the back come spring/summer

The Ford TSB was referred to as the Bama TSB. It's a well known fact. Here's a good read on it. I could dig up more but if one is really interested then they can do a search themselves.
