Bit the bullet and took a chance

Love the quad exhaust on the 2013 GT500. And since it wouldnt fit on my 2012. Figured I would take a chance and ordered the Magnaflow Quad tip Competition Series Axle Back. Think it came out good, and sounds great for just some mufflers and tips. Also added a pic of the front with the Roush Black Billet Grille, and Boss 302 Front. Sorry pics crappy. Been raining here

Looks good!

How did you get it to fit though? Is that the stock rear diffuser?

Sounds really good for just an axleback. Will see about putting up a video this weekend after I wash it and get some free time. Sounds like the regular magnaflow comp series but with 4 tips instead of 2 in the back. Checked out the vid on AmericanMuscle.com they have an installation video. That really helped. And installation was really simple. Did it in my driveway. Just put it on the lift to get the tips straight since I am working with one hand at the moment

I used a dremel cutoff wheel. And then a sanding roll to clean up the cut and a razor blade to finish the cuts to make them look clean. Was pretty simple once you get over the fact you have to cut the diffuser.

You did a great job on cutting the diffuser and I'm glad you posted pictures. I was very interested in this but after finally getting to see them on the car I'm going to pass. I think they look just a little crowded back there.

Sounds great though!

No prob man, looks better in person. Wanted something different, and only found pics of magnaflows and AM's test vehicle with them on. So figured not many wanted it. That's the great thing about the mustang and even the camaro. So many option to do what we want with these cars
