    Chrome bubble on wheel, warranty?

    because I'm lazy and would rather ask people I don't know (who have no ability to fix my problem) :shrug: :rlaugh: Seriously, you are right though I'm going to ask. Another one of my wheels has curb damage from the PO. I really like the wheels, so might have to just buy 2 OEM to replace...

    How do you make your loved ones understand...

    Who says you have to own 1 vehicle? Buy a Mustang, an SUV or something similar, and toss in a motorcycle for good measure. Then you'll have all angles covered. I'm with ya. :flag:

    Chrome bubble on wheel, warranty?

    I'm sure the dealer would say that, but you could say the same thing about the entire car's paint, or windshield, motor etc etc.

    Chrome bubble on wheel, warranty?

    One of my wheels has a spot about the size of a dime where the chrome is starting to bubble, eventually will flake/peel I'm sure. Are wheels covered under warranty? Just wondering.

    jlt cai doesnt fit, help!

    holy crap! I've been buying aftermarket parts for cars and motorcycles for quite a few years, and when you have a part that does not fit (like OEM) it's crap! You shouldn't have to bend/tweak/slam the hood to get something to work right, especially for a bolt on accessory. I was going to...

    How do you make your loved ones understand...

    My wife and I both have jobs, and spend our money the way we want. (Although we do share some things). If you really are into something, don't worry about convincing him...he should hopefully understand and support you. The last few cars and motorcycles I've bought (buy and sell etc, not...

    ARE V-6 CONSIDERED MUSCLE CARS?

    I have a friend who doesn't consider a Mustang a true American Sports car. lol He says if it has a backseat, and is made in a V6 (as an option), it doesn't qualify... weird

    Need an OEM Bumper Part, 2008 GT/CS

    So....I hit a semi takeoff on the highway at about 80mph last night :notnice: It was obviously really dark, I was changing lanes and wacked it before I had a chance to react. The lower bumper did get bent, but it was cool because it popped right back into place. However, I am missing the...

    14" brakes or not

    Exactly the route I was thinking of taking. Although, some better looking calipers could surely be a good thing. :lol:

    14" brakes or not

    What does upgraded mean, like a factory option? Mine has 18's, but could it have come with 17's if the PO didnt specify? :shrug:

    Barber :drool I have a motorcycle that I do trackdays on, so no need to take the car out there (like you said). :Track:

    Got my 2010 GT Dynoed last weekend!

    It could be putting down stock 700hp to the wheels, who cares? :rlaugh: I drive my car around town, I want it to look and sound good...last time I checked I don't go to the 1/4 mile track for fun or nor to get I paid to, and I refrain from racing teenagers from stoplight to stoplight. I'll...

    Adding Nav to 2008 GT with Shaker 500

    and what matters is how YOU will use it...right on. In my line of work, we have some of the coolest gadgets known to man, but always have to know how to do things "the old fashioned way" in case something fails. Pisses me off, but I guess it's relevant.

    RUSTY Rear Axle on the New Mustang GAG!

    and you got the percentage (99%) and "millions of dollars" from where? 75% of all statistics are made up, I just made that up. :rlaugh:

    RUSTY Rear Axle on the New Mustang GAG!

    I got under my 2008 (newly purchased used a few weeks ago) when I did a muffler swap and was horrified at the amount of rust I saw. Obviously not a "functional" issue but damn it looks like complete a$$, and for those of us who are anal about our cars it's a disappointment. This car came from...

    Adding Nav to 2008 GT with Shaker 500

    So, if that is the case, buy a AAA Atlas and you are good to go? :rlaugh: I agree maps are good, but navigating through an unknown busy city or other places where time is of the essence and no 2nd guessing means you don't miss a turn...the voice directions are great. I agree for the most part...

    Adding Nav to 2008 GT with Shaker 500

    oh ok, sounds good then. I was running into the same issue with our SUV, wanted a new head unit but was confused about interacting with the OnStar and the Sat radio. Bottom line, I left the stocker in place, didn't want to screw up the system. Nav is so "cheap" and readily available these...

    Adding Nav to 2008 GT with Shaker 500

    about $8 a month extra on Verizon = VZ Navigator. Complete Nav system with turn by turn and spoken directions on your phone, and maps etc. I assumed other carriers provide the same option. Don't waste your money messing with the stock system, when you can get the functionality and mobility of...
