It is worth the drive, trust me.
If you want to go sometime, PM me. We can head out together - I know the owner and have several friends there. I'm in Rancho Cucamonga.
Installed the Shaftmasters Aluminum drive shaft today and J&M lower control arms. The car bites hard on take off
Just the way I like it.

The aluminum drive shaft is from Shaftmasters http://www.shaftmasters.com/mustang-...iveshafts.html
The price is $499.00 - It took me about 1 hour to install (I used a vehicle lift which made it much easier). The drive shaft is super nice and went right in without any issues. I also used a front drive shaft hoop just in case. It really is a nice shaft. Also, on the 2010 Shaftmasters told me that Ford made a change to the trans tunnel and that whatever would "possibly" interfere on a lowered 05-09 body with a 4 inch shaft is no longer in place on the 2010. I have never seen under an 05-09, but when I did the install today, I can tell you for sure that there is nothing that could possibly interfere on the 2010 even if lowered.
The drive shaft change made a big difference. I am surprised at how much smoother and quicker the car is. I mean, it was already smooth and quick, but after the install, it is very noticable. The product is top quality. I used the adapter version which was very easy to install.
Hope that helps.

I went to GAS today and they gave me a quote for 3800 to 4200 for white stripes. Is this a good price?
The Collection was really neat to see. The showroom was fun but I certainly wasn't blown over with waves of customer service. The place was certainly over hyped for me. I had expectations it was going to be like when Dorothy entered the city of OZ.
All in all nice shop but I'm not sure it will be where I get my stripes done.

By the way - Did you tour the collection? That is what is so impressive.
