    Baltimore Street Mods stripes

    No bubbles. He did a great job of installing them, but like I said, it would not be a job for an amateur.

    Baltimore Street Mods stripes

    I got my stripes over the weekend and had them put on today. They look really nice, but the installer had a hell of a time with them. He's a professional installer with 15 years experience and it took him all afternoon to put them on. Fortunately, there were extra pieces included or he would...

    custom 2 tone leather upholstery in my '06

    That looks great. Where did you get the leather, and how much was it?

    Clunky rear suspension

    When I'm driving down a bumpy road, the rear suspension makes clunking sounds. It's not a sound like something is loose or broken, but more of a lack of damping kind of sound. Is this normal?

    steeda tri-ax short shift v. hurst SS?

    I just got the Hurst shifter installed in my car today. It has a much shorter throw than stock and is very precise. Plus the handle seems slightly taller than stock, which I like. And it doesn't get any cooler than having HURST on the handle and on the white cue ball, especially in a retro car...

    Clear Corners

    That is absolutely correct. My Crown Vic has clear front running lights/turn signal lenses from the factory. The bulb is amber.

    Question for you new S197 Owners

    I've only had my '06 GT less than a week, so I've not had it that long. But my first impressions are very good. I have a company car, so it's basically a weekend toy. I've had numerous 442s, GTOs, etc. over the years, and I have to say that as an overall package, I like the Mustang better than...

    Got my car today!

    Finally! And I'm already lovin' it. I've owned 442s, GTOs, and other muscle cars over the years, but I can already tell that this is going to be the most fun car I've ever owned. And it's my first new car. There's something really satisfying about taking the plastic off the seats, knowing no one...

    2006 GT Exhaust Question...

    Anyone know what mufflers Ford uses in their FRPP kit? It seems that the Bullitt cars had Borla. Does Ford have an 'in' with Borla?

    are the sticks missing?

    You need a better dealer. I ordered my 2006 GT 5-speed in July, got tired of the runaround in September. I switched to a different dealer with a much better Mustang allocation. I ordered from him on Sept 22nd. It is built and has a dealer ETA of 11/04.

    Want your car? Change dealers.

    I ordered my '06 GT on July 21st from a rural dealer. I was referred to them by a former employee and they guaranteed me a car in 8 to 10 weeks. When the 16th of this month rolled around and it was still C/U, I contacted the sales manager of our metro store, who sells a lot of Mustangs. I placed...

    GT500 under $40k MSRP guaranteed!

    If a dealer signs a contract offering to sell the car at MSRP (or a certain price), and the buyer puts down a deposit, the dealer is required to honor that contract. If he does not, the buyer can sue for breach of contract and probably win very easily. Now whether or not this guy actually has...

    Wax or Polish?

    Wax and polish are two different animals. Polish contains ingredients which feed the paint, but offers no protection. Wax offers protection, but does not feed the paint with essential oils, etc. like polish does. So you really need both. For more info, go to meguiars.com I'm not sure what you...

    ERL doesn't understand model code

    What is the deal with the Evil Robot Lady and the model code? I get along fine up until I have to say T82, then I don't get past that point. I tried 6 times tonight and didn't get thru. It normally takes me 4 or 5 tries to get past the model code. VERY aggravating!

    Middle Fog Light Kit?

    Yeah, but you can't order one off the website, and if you send them an email asking where to buy one (as I did), you don't get a response.
