exterior improvements

Big thanks to Andy for all his help with the installs.

I have just added the 3DCarbon rear skirt and 1/4 window louvers to my car..


I will be adding dual exhausts in 2 weeks and painting the mufflers black...

In 2 weeks I will be removing the spoiler

I'm a fan of the clean look but to each their own, of coarse

thanks...

was going for GT take offs for the mufflers... until last night I was cruisin' the local classifieds and found a great deal on Steeda axle backs (pretty much borla stingers) with 4000Km on'em.... so i guess i will be trying those out when the duals go in

tomorrow is the big day.... no more spoiler and the trunk panel blacked out (no magnetic black out anymore.. lol)

If your coming out to the 39th International Mustang Meeting in Billings, Montana September 4-8, 2009 you will be able to see mine with some similar changes. I have photo's but can't seen to post them here.

Rear skirt is clean, I didn't even notice it at first.

Im curious to see how the finish is on the hood once they pull the spoiler. Keep us posted.

well...
the spoiler delete is currently a no go at the moment...

I got my parts painted at the stealership and i told them i would get the spoiler delete done in 2 weeks once I have a week off work.. (week taken off specifically so I can have my car in the shop). so they gave me a lower price than normal..

well I showed up on Tuesday morning at 8am as agreed... turns out the guy that gave me the quote decided to take the day off.. they couldn't find my quote he prepared... according to them.. must of been "misplaced". so before taking the car they decided to requote me...i told them the original quote was $200... the guy said I was way off and it will be minimum $600... unless I agree to the $600 minimum they wouldn't take my car... wasn't expecting that $400 difference... I would of been upset too if I picked it up when done to find out it was that much as well..

then he was telling me that the rear vallance i just got is all wrong.. it's not made for my car blah blah blah....
the exhaust tip goes up snug against it and it will need to be lowered a bit.. not worried...
getting duals soon...

he insisted on telling me that i will have to cut more where the exhaust tip..

needless to say... I told him I will be taking my business elsewhere....

So I am currently shopping around now... lol

The thing that upset me the most is the fact that I was given a quote.. then it was "misplaced" and i get a new quote of $400...

oh well..

works better that I didn't get it done yet... I now have to move within the next 2 months... so all funds will need to be saved...
Once I settle down at the new place.. I will go with the spoiler delete...

still on the list..
