Nice Josh...
When i was researching though you couldn't find the oem projector headlights, they had replicas on ebay. Yuck! At this point you can probably get one off a wrecked one or something.

Either way, !

Yes SIR Yes SIR!!! Here she is...BEYONG my very OCD Picky expectation!!! Unbelievable condition! I am officially IN LOVE again since I got rid of my 2003 10th Anni. Cobra...

Getting her first Full tank of Yummy 93 Octane for my BAMA Performance 93 RACE Tune after getting a nice wash and detail immediately off the Semi truck hauler delivery from Texas!





It did come with some mild mods that I will be removing and installing the ones I have purchased for the white 2011 before. The AIRAID is one of the things coming off in place of my JLT CAI.

I admire Ford for not taking the buyout money. I respect the Mustang, but I'd still take a Camaro first.

Tails, ehhhh... I may opt for some OEM stock ones so I can "Lightly" smoke em since the previous owner did the NIGHT SHADE spray technique. Or the RAXIOM (smoked) aftermarket set. Although, I must say its one of the better jobs I have seen, still... Nitrogen in tires are stock option from Ford. No spacers, Down the road I will compensate with a staggered fitment with 20x10/10.5/11 in rear and 20x9/9.5 up front. Till then, I will leave the stance the way it is and bring her down with my BMR springs just a tad 1.0/1.25. I also have a shit load of mods close to $3k waiting to install from my shopping spree when I acquired the white one.

Sell the springs, go coilovers...you already KNOW you're going to! Plus, you can set them stiff to keep planted...

Also, my buddy with the white one with tune, intake/exhaust hitting 460 to wheels told me the other day that he went with cheaper tires and he's struggling to do anything but spin tire until 3rd.

I didn't mean to sound negative...it is an awesome car, sitting right...it'll be perfection. The tails, IMO, the 2013 red already look pretty dark, especially against black...I like them untouched.

Yeah, no doubt! I am running Pirelli' PZERO and I break hard even in a rolling 3rd. I am hoping to hit closer to 480rwhp with the additional mods like LTH, 85mm tb and 3in X pipe cat delete and plant it with the beefy! BMR lower control arms which which cut breaking loose and wheel hope tremendously! As for C/O's...yeah, I know. But we will see how all works out because I am not going for low low here especially when planning to fit a 20 in wheels wrapped in 305-315 tire. At that point, I will re-evaluate my needs and wants. The springs will do me fine till then giving me just the right drop and progressive spring performance with a ride like OEM.

hopefully weather gets better for the weekend so I can take some shots of the new whip and replace that white one in my avatar

Thanks Man! I think next or coming soon, I may repaint the BREMBO brakes something very clean & subtle outside of this horrible crusted dry looking grey finish FORD gave em. Maybe even just a clean SILVER like ...u know who. (rockstar) I just find it a job well done enough for me to apply to my Mustang.

Ready to reinstall but the sun fell on me too soon and looks like I will install the completed fuel door when I return from work. And the Mosquitos are in straight BEAST MODE when night feel as I made 1 attempt to install since its only minutes. No can do! They love my sweet Puerto Rican blood...lol!

Question bud, when u refinished your BREMBOs did u apply a new decal? Did u just purchase on from ebay? Thanks I also had a idea of having a vinyl shop instead of creating a decal to do the exact opposite and make a vinyl stencil of the BREMBO. Meaning the decal will basically be a mask and the word BREMBO would be cut out to that color of the word BREMBO and be all up to me and be painted on rather then a decal...IDK, u know how my mine gets when I have the bug...lol!

Why not just add "& 5.0 Beast" to the title? Then everyone is happy!
You DO need to change your avatar though, that's not for debate.

Yes sir, 4 coats of color, Brembo sticker from ebay, 5 coats of clear over top!

Isn't the factory Brembo a powdercoated very rough material though? I kinda dig it, although some Teal calipers on that mustang would be something you don't see ever...

Stance is tight work too, man...good job

Yes, avatar will be changed! No Debate! As for the finish, YES. It is a rough very dry looking charcoal grey color. When I say dry...I mean it literally looks like it could use some lotion or moisturizer rubbed on em. Its really not that impressive in person. Maybe when I am at it taking nice pics, I will capture what I am talking about. Its almost ugly but tolerable. I much rather have a nicer finish and color contrast. Which leads me to my next subject and vote: COLORS~ I would like to keep it within the FORD color chart and I have come to the following choices. Note 1,2 and 3 are my favs.

YELLOW BLAZE METALLIC
(*3) STERLING GRAY
INGOT SILVER
(*1) GOTTA HAVE IT GREEN
(*2) GRABBER BLUE

(The colors of the letter best describe the color of shade each represent. And that is pretty spot on! I was actually surprised)

I actually have a friend of mine who has a spray gun, compressor and prep material to get the show room factory finish. This will take for me to leave the car there for the time period from beginning to end. This will be something I will be venturing soon within a couple weeks or so.

I do to. No worries of getting any wheels anytime soon, All is well. The VHT NIGHT SHADE Tails are next this weekend...Off with the spray tint! The feeling is mutual bud.

Thanks Mondo. U know me within the first week I think I spent $2k! Then the car went back and found this one. All is well again.

Lmk what u guys think re: BREMBO colors. ROCKSTAR143 Your calibers came out AMAZING! and if I decide to go just clean and mean, that is the color and route I am going with, Some sort of shade of gray/silver.

there you go...
my vote is yellow blaze metallic...it'll look great.
Plan to attack with 80 grit to knock down the texture...
read up on it, I bet there are Ford threads on it.

I'm very familiar with these as my close friend has a 2013 5.0 with track package and Brembo's (redundant?)
