New to Mustangs as well as the forum...

I've been wanting a mustang since high school. All my friends were rocking them and my parents wanted to be practical and I got an accord. I guess that's what's nice about being a "grown up", I can get what I want.

I just picked up a 2013 silve V6 base. I actually got a used one and it was too good of deal to pass up on.

First thing on the to do list is some wheels. Can't stand the 17" rims. I know a guy that owns a wheel shop and getting some nice 20" for dirt cheap. Probably not going to do too much since it is a V6. Grille swap and maybe some lowering springs. That should complete it. Who knows.

I love the car though. This is the first time that I have never had buyers remorse on a vehicle. I'll throw some pics up after the wheels are on. I am sure you guys know what a bone stock silver base looks like.

Congrats and welcome to MF. I know you said you know a guy with a shop, but you still might want to check with jay@hypermotive here on the forum. He has great prices as well on just about everything you could want.

Congrats on the purchase! I love the **** out of mine. I plastidipped my stockers for the time being, and it looks pretty good. Peeling though, so I gotta redo them.
