2013 MUSTANG GT , I finished my mods.... yeah right
The paint is great. Matches perfect. There are a two imperfections (tiny) on the corners and underside, but almost not noticeable. That's why it was 80. They are regularly 299 so equivalent to most of the others out there.
My quad exhaust axle back arrive today.... unfortunately one of the tips was damaged in transport. The vendor is going to send a new one.
I don't know, but I suspect the guy from FedEx.... I was home when it was delivered. And I heard a thump, and then the door bell. When I got to the door he was already in his truck and shouted that the box was heavy. The outside of the box looked ok, so I unpacked it, to find out the driver side axle back was damaged. :-( now wait again.
btw. anybody interested in nice dual GT500 axle backs? They sound awesome! I have them for sale on eBay (and they are without any damage).

So I received the replacement drivers side axle back, and I got working on it.
The guy from FedEx was on his way with the rear valance, so I started cutting my bumper
I waited and waited and waited....... finally he shows up with a package. It contains part number DR3Z-17F828-BA

So now I have a unique Mustang GT, with quad tips and no rear valance.
Lets see how this goes on Monday with the vendor. I ordered the wrong part, and he advertised it also incorrect (as a fit to the 2013 GT500).
Part number I needed is the DR3Z-17F828-AB

The rear valance arrived.
And here it is installed.
What I notice is that the quad axle backs are quite a bit louder than the 2012 GT500 axle backs. Is that actually the case, or just my imagination?

The new axle backs are definitely a lot louder than the old GT500 axle backs.
Today I plugged my sound tube, to delete the intake sound coming into the cabin. Only sound now is the axle back. Much better!

Btw, lookin great!
The other and probably better option, is just to remove the tube, plug the intake manifold part, and the firewall. I could not find the correct materials to do that. I'll remove the tube some time in the future.
I'm pretty certain in the v6 Ford also added the sound tube.
