Default Pics of the GT

Hey I know I don't post often or ever really, but I do look on the forums almost everyday to see what is going on, I might starting voicing my opinion a little more. Yet what I am doing is posting a link to my a album in my profile, I'm just wanting some opinions on my car and what I could do to it. I was thinking about something similar to a california special front fascia package and a Roush rear valance with square exhaust tips.

https://mustangforums.com/forum/memb...m-m-stang.html

I'm not sure how to post pics on a thread, let alone i don't know if i can yet with such a low amount of posts I've made even though I've been following for probably two years.

Now I'm still interested in more mods to my motor, I'm just still deciding between a N/A engine or putting a M90 on it with a VMP kit, so far i only have intake, exhaust, tune, and some suspension mods.

sorry for the somewhat long post

Sweet looking ride Has to be one of the better looking white stangs I've ever seen in my opinion! Definitely welcome you to speak up some more, you definitely seem to know what you're doing when it comes to cars. I personally love the CS front fascia, and you should think about the Boss 302 splitter on it, just to add a little more aggression to the front end. I have it on mine now and love it, I think it just looks mean.

Also really feeling the idea of the roush rear valance with square tips, I personally love the look of square tips and with that rear valance it'll make them fit in just right.

As for power, I think if I were you I'd consider throwing the M90 on it, since the 4.6 + M90 has such an incredibly stable reputation behind it. Only reason I plan on going only N/A with the 5.0 is because of the high compression ratio, I can't afford to grenade my engine lol.

Ok awesome glad I know I've been going in the right direction, i know too many people that still confuse my car with an 05-09 generation. i thought the body differences are well enough played out...lol

then I have a few questions about the C/S front facia with the boss splitter, how much did it all cost and where did you get it from? Another question is how much closer is the facia to the ground then the standard GT bumper, i don't want to mess it up too bad considering i have already lowered my car with Eibach pro springs and I have some tokico d-specs waiting to be put on. Thats my main concern due it sometimes bottoms out already because of how steep some driveways and entrances are.

Hey also does ANYONE know where you can get the roush square exhaust tips for a decent price AND if they will fit onto the 2010 Roush cat-back exhaust. I know the tips were made for the new Roush 5XR but thats also has the supercharged 5.0 so are the pipes different?

In terms of the height with the front CS fascia, I think the right height is almost exactly the same as on a normal GT. The boss splitter through adds maybe .25" drop, and extends out from the front a little which might not help you. You'd probably be better off just sticking to the CS fascia.

That's the one thing that scares me about lowering, I just don't want to always be afraid of messing up my front end on every speed bump or driveway transition

hahahahaha thank you...lol...that's the one thing I don't like about lowering my car and the fact that i need different shocks just to make the ride smoother because it got so bad after lowering.
