did you make any changes to the suspension? Engine cooling ok? I was curious how the car in stock form handles high speed over long distances.

I love that stripe!
Your car is looking great and plasti-dipped or painted rims would really help the look.
Can't wait to see the rest of the mods you have to install.

Glad you got to get back to Germany for awhile, thank you for your service.

@captain ron: no suspension modifications yet, but its in my to do list. As far as the engine goes, not sure about how the engine cooling goes, but i will be installing the cai and Tuner this month....

@tanner: thanks!!! Thats my number One Mod i want to accomplish (black rims)..

Other than that, this month i will also get front and rear sensors on my bumpers, rear windows tinted, re-install window louvers (they didnt stick to well), and cai with Tuner.

Sounds like you got some good plans. Believe me, I want black rims too, but I'm not gonna plastidip them. I'll wait until I can afford a set. I've come close to just painting the stockers...but have held off as these will be my winters. I miss Germany...lucky ****er.

I got to see this baby in person. She's looking good Lopez! Give me a call when you get back from your trip and I'll help with the fascia install. It's not hard and shouldn't take us more than an hour. Glad you're home...it's nice to see another Mustang on the roads around here. Pisses the Germans off! lol

Greg and I did some painting on our cars. You an see mine here:

Other than that, I still have to install the Boss 302 Chin Spoiler, fog light covers, tri-pony center caps, still debating on plasti-dipped wheels (matte black) and still considering if I want to install the black hood scoop I purchased in which I will post a pic for public opinion.

More pictures to come once the weather clears up..

Not sure about the ansbach area. My brother in law works for audi, so I will have him do the sensors for me. And I don't like going thru affess because they can be pricey at time. Going to check this auto shop where Rob took his Stang and see what they're about. But there's some good auto shops in hohenfels, if you're willing to take the drive
