Hi all.... Planning on making a few mods to my '13 when it comes in. Right off the bat I know I want to add a remote start (decided this AFTER ordering the car... Ugh.) and add the grille fog lamps that the GTs have.

What do you guys recommend I do? Its scheduled to be built this Monday, and has a VIN and sticker already, so I assume it's too late to add the remote start from the factory. Should I have the dealer put it in when it arrives? Would it be better/cheaper to go elsewhere?

What's the best approach for the grille fog lights? Should I tell my dealer what I'd like to have done or go elsewhere? Should I order the part from ford and then go to a local shop?

What would a ballpark be for these two additions? How long do you think it'd take?

Ton of questions all at once, but this is my first foray into modifying my car, so all help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

 

Remote start can be added by the dealer. It won't be any different then the factory order. I got the factory remote and it comes with a separate remote and you can see under the dash were it was spiced into the harness.

 

Thanks, that's good to know, takes a lot off my mind.

Anyone have any ideas/advice on getting the gt grille?

 

Visit Roush's site. They sell the factory take offs cheaper than I've seen anywhere else. You'll need the grill and bumper assembly, and they usually have a great selection of colors available. That will save you on painting costs.
