I know
To bad u work on the 15th were that event is going down. I would have showed up a lil earlier to make a shoot before entering the gates at BMP. March 8th is NMRA at BMP also...maybe u are not working and can join me in the stands for some sick action! Check BMP schedule and events. Also, Idk if u would ever be interested in TEST & TUNE at Sunshine Speedway. I believe they go down on some Fri. and of course friendly battle street races at Sunshine for STREET WARS!

Hey, thanks Josh! ![Blush](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/blush.gif)
It is...it's a little go kart!
Honestly, what you got is what I had my eye on. But then, I decided I wanted a GT500 and it was too much, and then priced out a 2012/2013 5.0 with track package and it would have been too much money to be a second vehicle. Plus, as Betty put it...it would be ANOTHER daily driver. Then, I saw the 2015 concept...who knows...I do know that by having gotten the S, I put myself in a better future position to sell both the TL and the S and have a chunky down payment for my next car! I will admit though, I salivate like a mofo every time I see my buddy Javier's white 2013...

^^^See, and I HAD to have the 2013 tails AND projector headlights (I think it's standard in 2013)...so imagine, I'm right back above 32K. ![Sad](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/sad.gif)
Either way, we're all happy! I agree, independent rear suspension will be a MAJOR game changer for the Mustang in today's world of tracking and handling and curvy roads. Crazy Crazy Crazy things to come!

I think you're forgetting the 99-04 Cobra had IRS. It handled great and was perfect for the road course, but was very weak on the drag strip. Hopefully they build it stronger so people aren't converting their cars over to a solid axle.

BTW quick update to what is coming and what I am working on currently up to date. Just contacted my SCT Tuner to redo or get rid of the BAMA tune I have now to reflash a AED tune who happens to be a well known big name guy (SHAUN) at AED who says they have some of the most accurate and best performing tunes available on the market PERIOD! Also, I will be installing the JBA Long Tube Headers & JBA 3in (no cats) off road X pipe & BOSS Intake Manifold from the BOSS 302 Edition Mustang. ~ MAN! I am so stoked!

Update from this weekend. Always trying to do SOMETHING to the whip so I decided to try this method I saw on youtube on how to remove the awful looking VHT NIGHT SHADE spray tint...Here it is STEP by STEP ![Smile](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

Is the white/reverse area indented at all? Like, easy to tape off. or possibly use an exacto knife on? I'd suggest a very light colored vinyl if so...
Also, a shame you removed the VHT if you wanted them darker, you could have hit them with a porter cable...orange pad and M105, then polish them to a high shine with white pad and M205! It actually polishes but also removes SOME material so maybe it would have ended up being the perfect slightly less dark shade you're looking for.
Just some ideas...
I'd rather see you keep your OEM tails or see about being able to retrofit the 2013's...no aftermarkets!
