Sorry Gabe but I gotta do it before my OCD kills me....
It's not a rim it's a wheel, a WHEEL! Lol but man that's gonna look sharp. 1/4" though doesn't leave much room for whatever the world may throw at ya. But I wanna get bags so I don't have much room to talk haha sweet ride!

New battery installed, took it out of the garage for a few minutes.
Installed the GF's stock front wheels/tires on the front, moved the 285's to the rear (taking off the drag radials), and took it for a brief drive up the street

Fired up the green machine today after not starting her for 2 months. Man, that felt great. What a rush. I cannot wait for late spring/early summer.

Removed the factory GT spoiler and added a new GT500 spoiler in black. I also polished the trunk lid before installing the spoiler, so it is now swirl free.

Gabe... did you just get a garage recently? I thought I recall you didn't have a garage before and had to park your and your lady's ponies outside. Congrats on the garage! must have imo.

Scott, nice job on the polishing. Also, that black spoiler is a nice touch! I've never seen that before (in black). I like it.

Thanks and yeah, bought a 2-car garage with a 3-bedroom house attached last December, been working on the renovation since. We're about 1-2 months away from moving in, but the Mustangs moved in 2 days after I signed the papers, lol

LOL.... I'd do the same thing. The cars are what's important.

Took mine in today to have a "squeaky" rattle, that only happens w/ songs that have heavy bass (even at less that 1/4 vol), in the back passenger speaker area. No NIN for a couple days.

Turned out to NOT be the speaker, as I feared it might be, but w/ the wrong sound.
There were "other" loose parts in the area, that they tightened, and then used noise dampening foam on.

Took it for a little play in the snow, in the short trip I had going to work. As this is probably the only time I will see snow this year.

Disclaimer: No mustang was hurt during this photography session, and before anyone freaks out, there was no snow or ice on the roads, and we don't have salt or the trucks to distribute it around here.

What? The grass looks like crap right now. I'll post pics in a few weeks. We just had a freeze last week that browned up our grass. 27* in Orlando!!!

Thanks for the comments on the spoiler. We like it. My son and I also installed the Roush fog light kit tonight. What a pain that was. I will get photos tomorrow since it was after 9pm when I finished the install. The only exterior part left to install is the Roush hood scoop.
