Default RE: Got a HUGE problem

Does this really count as a HUGE problem or BIGGEST dilema ever, jeez watch 'Sophie's Choice' sometime. Anyways congrats on the car, I've always thought warranties were kind of a hustle, but my brother is a mechanic so who am i to talk I have a safety net.

I think there are some newer FRPP performance parts that won't void warranties if they're installed at the dealership. Of course get ready to pay a premium for both the Ford parts and dealership hourly rates.

Best of luck, post a pic of your car

either bolt on mods they cant detect or buy factory made mods, they cost more but it wont void your warranty and they will install it themselves

Did you really just make a 'Sohpie's Choice' reference?[&:]Maybe you don't belong on a Mustang forum.[8D]

If it were me I would just get bolt-on parts that I could easily change back if something were to go wrong with the car. What is going to go wrong with a nearly new car though?

Hey 'Sophie's Choice' had ****'s in it, any movie that has ****'s in it is instantly tough enough to talk about in a car forum. Check out my 'Sound of Music' reference in the audio section

Just bolt-on mods that they can't detect....Keep all your stock parts, and if anything ever goes wrong, just swap them in. Who would know?

An aftermarket warranty is usually a waste of money. Get your money back and do the mods you want.

By the way it is WARRANTY!

Well, thanks guys, and I don't think any less of anybody making any kind of references....whatever works for you. I agree with the people that say "bolt-on" parts, but I dont really know what kind of bolt on parts i should get. Anyone want to help me out there? I figured to start maybe a flowmaster exhaust, but I dont know how much of a hustle it would be to just "bolt-on".....

Also, in response to laserred02, if i said it was an aftermarket warranty, sorry. It is a new car warranty, they tacked it on to the existing warranty (even though the existing warranty was already out)....so im not sure if that matters...but yah, its new car, not aftermarket.
