Default First round of Mods!

I just bought the car about 10 days ago and I've already ordered stuff for it. It's too damn adicting, I spent about $17,000 in a 2006 F150 so stay tuned to this car. I ended up getting 5% tint the 2nd day of owning the car. I've got a SLP LM set-up coming in on Friday. I've got an Eclipse 5510 double-din navigation unit coming and it should be in by next week. I also just got my VMP 93 octane tune in today, which I have to say made a big difference even being completely stock.

Tomorrow, I'm going to be painting my stock 17" wheels to look like the Shelby GT wheels. Can anyone post up a close up picture? I need to know exactly where it's Black and where it's Silver. I'll probably also paint the calipers while I'm in there. I'll post some pictures as soon as I get everything on ..

I forgot to mention, I'm only painting the wheels for the time being. I need something to hold me over. I'm going to be going with the Steeda Pentars in Black 18x9.5 with either Nitto 555s or General Xclaim UHPs. I also ordered the 14" antenna tonight. LOL

about the wheels:

the Shelby GT has 18" wheels that are a bit different in style to the factory 17" bullitts.

the Shebly GT-H came with 17" Bullitts, but I don't any were ever painted.

Here's a pic of the black 17" Bullitts that ford racing sells though.
