Thumbs up I think im done (Pics, lotsa pics)

All right you guys talked me out of spending my savings/bonds to buy a Gt500 and instead spend some $$ on my 05 Gt. This is what I did,

1. Removed the Vinyl stripes and had them professionally painted.

2. installed a CDC chin spoiler and had it painted to match

3. Ordered everything midwest auto gear had to offer in the engire bay compartment.

The pics of the exterior of the car arent that great since I took them in the late evening, but at the bottom are before and after on the engine bay. Also at the end I have a questin for you all,





Before





AFTER







now the question, I have on order the billet caps with the red pony for about $250. Does my engine need them? do you all think it would added enough to justify the extra expense.

Thanks, to all who respond.

Oh get them.
I want your car.
Holy crap..... when I get a job and can afford to buy some goodies for my GT... I may have to replicate yours. Of course mine will be Vista Blue... but damn your car is HOT!

Cant get the hood props since I already drilled into the radiator cover. Besides, it doesnt really bother me.

I use the local car wash to clean the engine bay. i cover the air filter, battery, fuse box and use only the "spot free" rinse and plenty of degreaser.
