I have gone crazy with mods lately! I'll go ahead and do a "throwback" of what she looked like a few weeks ago.
Many things have changed over the past few weeks and some final decisions on the long term of this car. Got my hands on a brand new white 2010+ GT front bumper from eBay. I was extremely surprised to receive the bumper and realize it was completely brand new. The paint felt amazing and you could tell the clear coat was fresh. I think the car it came off of had gotten a brand new aftermarket bumper put on before even driving it off the lot. This bumper was perfect. I always had my eyes set on the Saleen Grille and I got lucky once again and found one on eBay untouched. Once it arrived, of course that wasn't enough. I went ahead and ordered the rest of my dream front end setup. The CS/Boss front fascia with fogs and the Boss splitter! Oh my god...MEAN. My buddy has a 2013 GT that he's already parting out and getting ready to trade so I bought his rear window louvers, and 20" Stance SC-5ive wheels (pretty much brand new). They are 20x9 front and 20x10 rear.
Future of the car:
So, here's some pictures of the car as she sits!

Future of the car:
- GT500 TR6060 6 speed tranny swap (currently automatic -__-)
- 5.0 crate engine

Nice choice! Looks as though this weekend was a WHeel nice time for all....I got new 20's as well. I got the same tires you did, size brand Proxes 4!
The tires are pretty decent and you aright about the ride...nice and smooth. But it comes with a price, the sidewalls being softer will affect handling. BUT they are inexpensive!
