Default 2013 GT Vert // 1.5 drop, bar, wheels etc...

2013 GT Prem vert.

LATEMODELRESTORATION.COM:
GT500 strut mounts
FRPP K Springs
FRPP shocks and struts
FRPP jounce stops (Cut rear 1/2 inch)
Style Bar and Wind Screen *
SVT Lower Arms
BMR Pan Hard
GT500 Ax Back Exhaust

AmericanMuscle.com
AMR wheels and Sumitomo tires *
JLT Air Oil separator

Huper Windshield heat shield and double tinted all sides and rear with Huper and formula for non blacked out but no longer green finish


Nothing over the top... but I wanted a clean look that got rid of the monster gaps at the wheels and a sound that's not loud, but obviously not stock.










All turned out well...

More details on the suspension in the suspension section shortly, but the overall effect turned out the way I wanted...

slight issues with the wheel finish and American Muscle are doing a great job of taking care of it... The style bar trim finish was comming off but I believe it just needed to be snapped back into place.

I actually couldnt get my head around a mustang convertible either until I came to this ofrum and started seeing a lot of the moded standard cars and thought a little about the shape and color... I thought the sterling was properly muted and the bar and dropped stance would make it work out.

Yeah I had to flip the image for the before pics because the car was facing the wrong way... I would have taken a few more pictures but it was 104 out and I was sweating bullets : )

The dealership ordered the same exact parts (except used FRPP Pan hard and controle arms) to build for the show floor

Refinished the wheels to matte Black versus the Charcoal...










A bit better looking I think, and much improved finish quality...
