MODS! MODS! MODS!-updated 6/3
So i have to say, after running around with all of you last weekend i was a bit inspired to "finally" open up some of my boxes and start modding my pony.
Some of the easier stuff i had already put on like the GT/CS wing and front valance as well as the OEM hood scoop. So here's some pics from what i was busy doing Sat & Sun =)
Installed new Shelby CS70 wheels, wrapped in Toyo Proxes4 (255/35/20front, 295/30/20rear)
Installed Roush CAI
Also installed my Pypes Catback Super System...all i have to say is "Obnoxiously Sexy!"
Also installed my Lund 93 Tune...what an amazing difference! Car hooks and launches like crazy, sounds like a banshee and no more annoying skip-shift!!
3 weeks and the MGW goes in as well as the lowering kit and sway bar!
can finally say i've gone from liking my car to loving it!
================================================== =
UPDATED 6/3/12
Up here in Ohio for my nephews graduation and went to go get my lowering kit installed @ friends garage www.afterhoursmustangs.net along with my MGW shifter and AeroForce gauges.
OMG...what a MAJOR improvement in the handling on the car! it rides like it's on rails now! Installed FRPP-K Springs, FRPP Struts & Shocks, SVT Strut Towers, FRPP Jounce kit.
BEFORE:
FRONT SPRINGS ASSEMBLED:
WAITING FOR ALIGNMENT:
AFTER:
GAUGES INSTALLED:
no pics of the shifter install, it was to say the least a pain. Thankfully having a lift made it ALOT easier. I opted for the reuse of factory shift ****, but the change in the throw is ridiculous!!
Some other "toys" getting worked on while i was there...
08 GT-headers, cams, tune & exhaust
06 GT-headers, cams, tune, power-coated valve covers, TB and front engine cover
The shops 1st Challenger-KB supercharger and tune

Exact same setup I'm running except my wheels are CS40s. The Proxes 4s have been solid for me, they've lasted at least 35,000-40,000 miles now, which I was scared about given the price of the staggered setup and them being low profiles, I figured I'd have to replace them more often.
Looks great! Keep modding!

I have to chime in and say that's a vveerryy sharp ride! And it takes a lot for me to step in here because I'm so not a fan of this latest body change. So my hat's off to ya brother, first '10+ I've drooled over because of looks!!
