    Need help from any SC officer or ex-officer,judge

    I'll give you my .02 for what it's worth from somebody in the People's Republic of Cali. 1. If you go to court, or deal with an attorney, stick to the facts surrounding the actual violation charged. The judge could care less about whether the officer was polite or not, if the officer...

    Pinch me, I'm dreaming. The new ride has arrived at the dealer...

    Just got the call from the dealer and the new ride has arrived. It is prepped and I will pick it up either tomorrow morning, or Monday. Ordered a Vista Blue GT/CS with all the bells and whistles and it's waiting for me to come and take it away. I'm slap happy with excitement and it's almost...

    I want flames!!!!

    No, that's another story that involves a Ford Galaxy 500 station wagon, 5 friends with BB guns, a hand held spotlight, and darkness. But that is for another day. I like how in the video that guy states that the process is bad for your engine, illegal to use on the roads, can light things on...

    I want flames!!!!

    Maybe a case of Rosarita refrieds, a six-pack of Coke, and some jumping jacks....... Actually, I would think if it was strictly for show, you could rig up something better than using unburned fuel from your exhaust pipe. Stunt folks have been setting up stuff like that for the movies for...

    Roush California & front plates?

    That's pretty innovative. Just make sure you don't lose that plate. Some punk will throw it on the back of their ride and go do beer runs or gas runs with your plate captured on the videotape. Or worse yet, park in a handicap slot or get caught on one of those red light cameras.

    I want flames!!!!

    The big deal is, they are dangerous and illegal for a reason, as several have already said. However, I guess some folks have to learn the hard way...... They look cool, but the potential for real headaches is large.

    Shelby GT500 Spoiler fit GT Decklid

    I ordered the CS so I already have the rear fascia. The 3Dcarbon rear spoiler is listing at $286 on the Steeda website. I've seent the Ford GT500 spoiler listed as low as $229 on some Ford dealership websites. One dealership I think even offered it painted for an extra charge which would be...

    Shelby GT500 Spoiler fit GT Decklid

    I'd love to see a good write up on the Ford GT500 install. Apparently the Steeda (Carbon3D) wing now requires extra holes to be drilled at the ends. That discourages me from going with anything other than the Ford, even if it costs more.

    Roush California & front plates?

    Putting the plate on the dash still gets you a ticket though. 5201 CVC. License plates shall at all times be securely fastened to the vehicle for which they are issued so as to prevent the plates from swinging, shall be mounted in a position so as to be clearly visible, and shall be...

    Flowmasters and X-pipe or stick with h-pipe?

    What about drone? I'm reading that the X pipe in conjunction with the AT Flowmasters causes some serious drone at certain speeds?

    Flowmasters and X-pipe or stick with h-pipe?

    Cany anybody else pipe in on this one? Resurrected thread, but I was also about ready to do both the X pipe and the American Thunder Flowmasters. Is there anybody here who has done it, then regretted it?

    Fuel Tank Issue

    Somebody needs to get the media in on this one. Perhaps somebody with a touch at a TV station. One of those consumer advocate type guys to do a video on it. Then a bunch of calls to a national network alerting them to the local shoot to get it going nationwide. I have an 07 GT/CS on order...

    California Special Ride Height

    Post some pics if you can. Sounds like a very nice ride. What brand ring and pinion and springs did you go with?

    Cold Air Kits

    I'll check out your post in the other forum. If Ford will stand behind the Steeda product, then that makes it a no brainer. I was impressed with Doug's post on programming.

    Roush California & front plates?

    In California, as Jim D. stated, you are mandated to have a front plate. Can you be pulled over for not having one? Yes you can. Can you get a ticket? Yes you can. And, it used to be a "fix-it ticket" didn't cost you anything other than a signature from a qualified authority in order to...

    Disappointed with new California Special

    My thoughts when I ordered my GT/CS. I sat and starting checking off all the goodies that I would add to the GT. By the time I got done, I had most of the extras that come on the CS. So, for the extra $1900 or so (probably similar in price to what I was adding anyway), not only did I get all...

    Cold Air Kits

    I'm a little miffed because somewhere on these forums somebody mentioned that they ordered a GT/CS and were allowed to order the FRPP power pack at the same time. I wasn't given that option when I ordered mine. And, I was sitting with the fleet manager looking at the Ford ordering screen when...

    Cold Air Kits

    I'm a child of the late fifties myself so the retro look is what caught my eye too. It is kind of fun getting a car that looks like the cars we drove in High School. I remember friends with Mach 1's, 67 Camaros, Cudas, etc. I was into fast VW bugs back then (prior to the California look), and...

    Cold Air Kits

    Since my new GT/CS hasn't arrived yet, I am in the planning stages. I have been researching the mufflers, the rear spoiler, X pipes, and intakes so far. For me, the vehicle will be a daily driver so I am not looking to get too radical. Although in my younger days, I was bitten by the speed...
