Default My 2011 GT after a few grand in mods...VERY Pic Heavy!

I've gotten my Mustang to the point where I am about to start saving up for a S/C. I'm going to pick up some Aeroforce Interceptor gauges, Roush side skirts, a GT500 rear diffuser, a short shifter and some other things mentioned below. That's about the end of the mods until I start saving up for the S/C. What I've done so far:

*C&L Intake w/ SCT X3 tuned by Jon Lund
*Painted the coil covers and the engine cover
*JLT Catch Can
*BBR O/R X-Pipe w/ 3" pipe back to a set of Flowmaster Super 44's.
*Billet Aluminum Upper Grille inserts
*Painted Fogs w/ VHT Spray Tint
*GT/CS Lower Fascia
*BOSS Splitter
*Koni SRT.T Struts and Shocks
*GT500 Upper Strut Mounts
*Steeda Ultralight Springs
*Steeda Dual Adj PHB
*BBR LCA's
*CHE Relocation Brackets
*Drilled and Slotted rotors front and rear
*ASA GT5 Wheels in 19x9 +44 off set
*BFG KDW2 rubber with 255-35/19 up front and 275-35/19 out back
*BBR Billet shorty antenna
*30% tint on windows and rear glass
*And a few other little things interior wise

I was using front and rear tinted covers, so some of the pictures will show the car with them. However, those things are ****ty at best. I plan to tint the front headlight covers and then buy some rear tail lights that are tinted. Side markers are currently tinted, but I also plan on buying the tinted side markers at some point as well.

So, on to the pictures. These were before I installed the new rotors:



















I really need to take the time to go down to the beach and take some pictures and take my time composing them. Anyway, these are after I installed the new rotors:

Thanks guys. It has been a labor of love so far! This is such an awesome car to own and to drive, it's just unreal.

I just moved to Florida a month ago and down here, it's funny owning a car like this. I get so many women telling me "Beautiful car! Can I go for a ride?" and similar pick-up lines that I'm pretty glad my wife doesn't have a way of looking in on me while I'm driving! LOL!

Also, I've discovered how careful you have to be in the rain down here. I've been told that our proximity to the beach means the roads are that much more slippery when it rains. I've no idea if it's that or just the fact there are so many more cars here than where we moved from that there's more oils and stuff on the roads. Probably the latter. But I can get this thing sideways at 50 pretty easily. Just aggressively drop down to third and that's it.

I have had to make a new screen name. Almost every time I come to this thread, it stays here for three or four seconds, then dumps me out to the main forums page. It does this no matter what thread I look at. I'll be getting in touch with the forum mods to see if I can get this fixed. Cleared my browser completely, to include cookies, then shut down and restarted, all to no avail.

Wow nicely done, that mustang looks beautiful! If I was your son, I don't think you'd be the one driving it.. Haha.. Where did you buy those rims from? I'm debating whether I should put them on my 2005 Mustang V6 that is Silver.
