That's the plan. All eventual progress, 1 leg before the other. Hopefully Monday I'll have... GT front bumper cover. I placed an order through NTO already just awaiting its arrival. Not sure if I'll be able to assemble it that coming Monday, be a bit busy then and it's probably a 2hr job.

But once that bumper is on the grille and chin are next on the chopping block. Grille first for obvious reasons (V6 grille doesn't work on GT). But then I'll also be selling the V6 front bumper w/ the Pony Package grille as I won't be needing it.


Oh, and honestly the interior at night now is ****ing sick! I can't take any pictures or video to do the LED mod anything close to justice. Seriously sweet I recommend this to everybody. Drove through the city today and the combination of the street lights and my new blue LEDs make me feel like I'm in a lightbike from Tron.

So I had this happen to the car after work today.





Great now I have a bumperless car. What am I gonna to do now? Guess I'll just have to attach a new GT bumper and CDC grille.





Honestly I took a lot of pictures but due to the lighting and cloud cover 99% looked like dirt. Didn't even look black due to the reflection it turned hazed white all across the hood. So I'll just update in the near future w/ better sunset type of pictures. We had a really nasty thunderstorm I'm glad I did this work in a garage or else I'd be soaked by the rain instead of just humidity sweat.

So I'm going to try for another day to get some better pictures. But right now I'm contemplating about how to get a registration and all that fun jazz in another state so I can legally keep the license plate off the front. It looks so amazing without that ****ing state enforced eyesore ruining the outline. But also don't really enjoy giving ticket jockeys an easy excuse to pull me over to thief away some money. So in a bit of a conundrum at the moment. But realistically this is New York so chances are there won't be a legal way to get around this. I'll probably just have to suck it up and bolt it on.

Looking good. I'd say get one of them flip up hidden mounts for the front plate.

Pretty much, seems to be a best bet that won't put me through legal red tape paperwork hell. Just need to do some research and see which ones are most reliable, and then debate if I want a manual or electric one.

And if I go electric (which will be more convenient but just don't trust the longevity of an under-car servo-motor here in the North East) then I'll try to find one that I can hardwire to the car and install a button/switch. Not a fan of wireless keyfobs.

Just a question...why not go with the Roush front end to compliment the spoiler on the back?

Not a fan of the Roush front end. I like their wing so that's why I incorporated it. It's why I have a Cervinis side window scoop yet not one of their hoods or side exhaust. They might make one item I like but that doesn't mean I'll use all of theirs exclusively. Turns it into a Cervini's Mustang, or a Roush Mustang. I'd have just bought one from the start from them if that's what I wanted, saved a lot of time and headache. Instead I'm looking to piece together a variety of parts from here and there that make it my own.

Eventually I'll probably put a chin on the front end, though. But first need to get the plate on there.
