congrats, and welcome to the board!

mine is a black & red '06 gt vert, my first convertible. i did my first "mod" (drilled aluminum pedals) the day after i took delivery. next i swapped the stock fog lamps for silvania silver stars, followed by saleen hid headlamps, bassani axlebacks, and a $50 saleen short-throw shift adapter (the best-bang-for-the-buck mod, period). then i tinted the windows and ripped out all the stock stereo equipment and put in a pioneer premier deck and boston acoustics Z6 speakers, two 10" subs & (3) amps. the amps weren't getting all the power they needed, so i installed an optima yellow top battery and a capacitor. next on the list are 19" wheels & tires, followed by stripes

one of the first things you should do is get some raggtopp vinyl top cleaner & protectant (armor all leaves a hazy white film when it dries). always try to park under the shade, as direct sunlight fades the top quickly. you should also tint the windows, to keep the interior cool and prevent fading

half the fun of owning a new 'stang is looking for new mods! enjoy your new ride!
