Very interesting indeed! If I go with a new cf hood in the future, I'd go 80/20 clear/kona. Oh man. That would look good.

Today I finally got a new strut tower brace installed.
A stock 07-09 GT500 piece, bolted right on with no clearance issues

Got her smogged today. Burning very clean from my results. Time for a catless mid-pipe.

Got a couple compliments today as well. One guy said that he liked my 5.0 and he remembered his 1984 5.0, reminiscing about it at a stop light. A few other guys have me thumbs up and were yelling "woohooo" when I got on the throttle entering a freeway.

If you go catless then you won't pass smog right?

You are correct. Since it passed today, I have 2 years before I have to worry about another emissions test.

I also will have to worry about the "rolling stations". I plan on running long tube headers with a catless H-pipe. Im sure I'll get the car towed the second a cop puts a mirror underneath and sees no cats.

That's California for you.

Did nothing with the green machine, but I did pay her off for the remainder of this year. Don't need to make another payment till January 2015. (I'm sure I'll make more before then. lol)
Also sent in over a grand to go towards the principal amount.

Finally decided to get the floor mats. A must in Minnesota, not as much in Georgia.

went to my first show'n'shine at A&W tonight. It's all kinds of cars. I saw a ZL1 convertible too, which I think is beautiful. No pics tho. Not appropriate

Here's the mustang section at the end of the night. Lots had left.
Kenne Bell under the hood of this one...
