Thanks for all the positive comments guys!
2006MustangGTNYC- I will be adding stripes next year, but ran out of money. MY quote for painted stripes with no clear edge was $2300.00, I just ran out after all these mods.
Also the Shelby Center Fog light Grill will be on later this summer, once it is released and available.

I guess the one thing I was considering adding was the CDC Chin spoiler, but not replacing the whole bumper.
AS for the tires, yah when these get burned up, Ill go with maybe 275/40 and 255/35-40 when I replace them. AS for the fanblades, I dont know I kind of like the way they look....When the time comes to replace the tires Ill have to think about it then. I probrably wont do springs...but I will be doing Tint, lowest will be 35% as I already dont have a front plate (which is req in MN) so I dont need a front plate + tint ticket ;-)

I ordered mine over the phone, as for some reason their online CC system was down the day I ordered, so I got my invoice when they shipped.
I got my GT350 emblem at mustangsunlimited.com
GT350 Gas Cap Emblem
Since it is concave, you will need a small bit of 3M auto tape to help it stick on, but only enough to cover the GT emblem on the back, as the Cover does have adhesive on it already.
Thanks again for the kind words!

Looks great, love the combination. I just got the Eibach Pro-Kit and it really makes a difference, also they don't sacrifice ride quality if that is your concern.

You know I agree with andyman I do not like those rims.
ORIGINAL: andyman
i like the car alot, but there are 2 more things you shoudl consider adding:
-a different front bumper
-NEW WHEELS AND TIRES. the fanblades ruin it for me
slap some tint on there and that will be one purty car!! and some springs.... okay 4 things

I like it...looks good. The only thing was I don't really like the side stripes. Those are all over ebay and they use the vintage G.T. instead of the new GT logo that's on the new GT500. It is a tribute, but it is also a new car. I went to a screen printer with a pic of the new shelby and had my side stripes made and installed for $250. I had to put the 'GT500' under the door because of my roush side skirts but you can make it with the same placement. Just looks better IMO.

Looks great and I really like your future plans for it too! I'm building an Eleanor (Cervinis) and definitely feel that budget crunch. I have the Shelby GT500 fender emblems but I may take them back off. The gold looks good on your red car but on my tungsten, it looks a little awkward. I'm still trying to decide. -Joe

Always good to see some constructive criticism, I just went to Graphics Express and bought the GT350 Vinyl Side Stripes, They looked the most "classic" to me and they are licensed by Ford. So thats the way I went. I realize its an new car, but I am doing my best to keep the new look with the old Emblems and graphics. It will diffrentiate me, if Ford decides to actually release a REAL 200X GT350 like they did with the GT500 ya know. But hey im glad you guys like most of it, thanks for the constructive criticism I will keep in mind with my next mods beleive me. Never would want to look "rice" ;-)

If you decide you want to look at the newer looking stripes, here's a guy that does top quality vinyl http://stores.ebay.com/High-Performance-Decals. I decided to get the new looking stripes too. It has the GT the way our logo looks. -Joe

Seems everyone is tricking out their rides so it's getting harder and harder to have something 'original' looking.
