I haven't really posted much here lately but I have done a bunch of stuff to my second 2010 which is a performance white spoiler delete 5-speed manual 4.0. Here are some pics you can check out my cardomain page in my sig for more info/pics thanks for looking&commenting is also appreciated
In case anyone was wondering this car along with my black 2010 we're the first for a lot of mods as far as 4.0 cars go like the first to cut the stock lower bumper for duals, the first to pioneer fitment of a demolet tunable inductions intake system, first to be tuned with an sctX3, first to fit a gt500 strut tower bar, first 2010 with a mustangdeadpedal.com deadpedal kit, first to use cdc's pedal kit, first using chrome door handle covers, first 2010 that I know of to use 99-04 offset wheels, first with H&R coilovers, first to use a 05-09 K&N intake system modded to fit, first to use the 05-09 headlight splitters again modded to fit, first to install black billett grilles and modify the factory grilles for more airflow, first with a frpp acc gt500 lower rear diffuser, first with roush side skirts, first with DGcustoms painted mirror covers, first with using a non mustang specific shorty ant. I know I'm not exactly pioneering much of this stuff but at least I was the first one to try it out on a 4.0 2010 and post pictures.

No problem man glad to see your staying busy It will be fun when we do get the chance to meet I can't wait to hear that roush exhaust in person, and congrats again on becoming a moderator!
If you are going to tastefully mod a car, then this is how you do it.
Back when I was in college, I turned in a college term paper to my English professor, and I had put the paper in one of those plastic colored binders. My professor ripped the plastic off the papers, pulled the term paper out, handed the plastic back to me, and I will never forget what he said:
"You will someday understand the simplistic beauty of a clean sheet of paper."
I think about that when I see cars now. I see all the spoilers, the hood scoops...the vents....all things people add on so as to try to make their car look better. It's almost like seeing a woman with a ring on every finger.....just comes off as trying way too hard and always looking obnoxious.

Nicely done. Beautiful car.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
That Mustang looks way better than any sixxer has a right to. Good job.

Not coilovers on this one Tein S-tech lowering springs on stock shocks 2" drop in the rear 1" even in the front rides pretty close to stock a little firmer but not as harsh as the H&R coilovers I had on my other 2010. It just looks super low because I went with a fatter tire 265/35/20's on 8.5" rims that probally helps the ride some as well. Ben
