Galpin Ford
I haven't been to Galpin Ford but i hear they have an accessories shop and sell some aftermarket stuff, so I was wondering if anyone knew what kind of stuff they sell for the new Mustang GTs. I live about an hour away and I want my warranty intact. Do they just sell FRPP stuff? I was also wondering if anyone had experiences with them installing parts and how your warranty held up.
Thanks

Galpin's accessory shop is called Galpin Auto Sports. Ever watch Pimp My Ride? That's them - GAS
they are RIDICULOUSLY overpriced. Expect to pay almost double the usual price. They wanted over $1300 for the Saleen suspension kit that is $800 everywhere else. They wanted $5500 for a Paxton supercharger that is $3400 everywhere else. They are a shop for people with deep pockets and don't want to do stuff themselves. What area are you in? I can recommend a bunch of places in the San Fernando Valley/ Santa Clarita Valley area for you.

They have lots of Roush parts.
But the insane thing is that I've been in there 3 times with money to spend and they won't give me the time of day! Too busy on the phone talking to who knows who. Let's find an honest, reliable aftermarket installer and give THEM our business.

I'm in MB too.What part of town are you in?
Once your warranty is up, go to Joe at Chicane Sport Tuning in Torrance (chicanesport.com). He's become ridiculously busy in the past few years, but for good reason.

Hope you like 22" wheels -- they seem to be more for the "Pimp My Ride" audience than anything else. Which is fine, if you're into the flash, and want to spend more money than you need to purely to say "I spent $8,000 on..." (instead of the usual $3,000).
