GT Exhaust & Stripes

GT Exhaust & Stripes
I'm sure that this subject has been beaten to death, but a search gives back so many topics it's mind blowing.
I have a brand new `06 GT Premium, every option but convert., auto & red leather accent. I'm coming from driving a 2004 Z06 and of course want more power.
I want an axle back system, but don't want something obnoxiously loud or droning. I bought the Shaker 1000 for a reason, and don't want to have to fight the exhaust to hear it. I do want a better (louder) exhaust, that will improve performance as well.
I'm also leaning heavily toward the C&L intake and Diablosport Predator tuner. I loved the unbeliveable difference the Predator made to my Z06, and hope it will be as great for this Mustang. Any input on this?
Also, where is the best place to get the Ford stripes for a Mustang, and what is the best contrasting color for Tungsten Grey?
TIA

As far as colors go ... personally, I prefer Satin Silver Metallic. Saw pictures of the Ford GT in that combination, and I thought it looked sweet. I'm in the process of getting quotes for having my Tungsten Grey GT 'vert done with them.

It was absolutely INSANE, and a total blast to drive with close to 500 HP. With the traction control off, tire smoke in first or second gear was just a push of the right foot away, no clutch necessary. Unfortunately, I got pulled over every time I drove it (I wonder why?). The worst part was major electrical gremlins, it seemed like it spent more time in the shop than I did driving it. I have always been a Chevrolet freak, but their quality control lately as well as the vehicles they offer really s*ck. This is my first Ford in about 30 years, and so far I'm pleasantly surprised. Granted, it's nowhere near the beast the Z06 was, but it is a nice car. I bought it until I see the new Challenger, if that comes out with the 6.1 (or better yet the 6.4) and a 6 speed I'll sell the GT and buy one of those.

If you mean the decals offered by Ford as a dealer installed option, nearly any dealer should be able to get them for you.

I'd sure like to see that combonation when it's finished. I've been wrestling with the stripe color for my Tungsten as well. I was thinking of black but that silver may look good too.
