OK, I'm confused ... (nothing new, I know)

You have an `05 Roush, but you added Roush Wheels and a Roush suspension

So what did Roush give you with the car?

I actually like how the stripes don't go over the side skirts for some reason, I dunno. Great car

It was a stage 1 basically the body kit.
I did the roushcharger, roush short shifter myself. Doing the Roush suspension(just laid it out tonite) myself. when the Roush big front brakes come in I'll do it myself
I am a licensed mechanic and I want to do installl on all of the mods myself it gives more more satisfation knowing I did the work rather then have one with everyhting on it rom new...At show people ask me all kinds of thing about let's say the s/c . I can pretty well answer all the questions. If was already on I wouldn't have a clue about it. Lots of guys who do their own mods know what I mean by the satisfaction thing. I think when someone does their own install on any mod they are more fussy then a shop would do.

I agree 100%; it is always more satisfying when you modify your 'Stang yourself! Whenever I want something new for one of my cars, I do it myself. I didn't know that Ford offered Roush's with only the Body Kit; if I did, I would have probably done the same thing that you did. Great Choice! Good Luck with your Mods, and Nice 'Stang!
