Project LOW SNOW

[Csnow]

This build thread is about Snow. Which is the name for my 2016 PP Gt. Snow is her name given because of her color and the fact she was purchased after the 2016 blizzard around the DMV. Low is for the stance and the budget that I am working with.
Sold the foxbody 4.6 32v Cobra engine,76mm turbo combo. Car in the first picture spent 12 years and $48k. So promised wife I would not go that extreme again.

Snow with no wheels sitting on Jack stands. Why? Wheeling and dealing. Sold stock PP wheels and tires and picked up these in EBay auction.

Also scored some new Nitto 555G2's on Ebay also 275/35 20, $301 after discounts. Unbelievable deals you can make when you shop and wait.

Purchased Mickey Thompson 305/35/20 street comps from American Muscle. Great prices and fast delivery. Sold PP wheels and tires,purchased New tires, got them mounted, all in a weekend. Sometimes you have to coordinate. Did I mention that this is my daily driver!

Snow is now low

So far I have learned a lot and made some new friends. Thanks to Mustang6g and its forums. Here is the most recent decent photo of Low Snow. Plans for the future are for a rear spoiler, CAI, possibly some Carbon fiber pieces under the hood,interior,exterior. What ever I can afford. I appreciate the fact that some are able to vlog their way to donated items, that's cool too! But I guess I am old school getting it done one piece at a time with no budget.

Stripes

Thought about Shelby type stripes,but wanted something simple. These stripes are from American Muscle. Decided just to add hood accents. Thinking about a roof wrap also. Seems like quite a few have done that though and we are trying to be different. Made some carbon inserts for the hood vents as well. While stripes are gloss black.

Rear valance

Couldn't live with the base all white rear valance. Plastic-dip to the rescue!

Clutch assist spring

Anyone considering removing the clutch assist spring listen in. I purchased the Steeda clutch assist spring about 2 weeks ago. I have heard some people say it was hard to get out. While others say just leave it out. I just installed mine and it took about five minutes tops. Being 6ft 7 getting under the dash can be painfully difficult. But this was not. I will say that after reading the directions I purchased a set on needle nose vicegrips. The directions were spot on. Drove the car and boy what a difference. Engagement is smooth and precise,no more jerky shifts :clap2:

stripes

Decided to add a carbon fiber stripe with tangerine accent. Took about 4 hours to complete. All custom cut and laid by myself. anyone local wanting stripes pm me. Can do most popular color combos for around $200 depending on materials and layout. Picked up another trophy at a Friday cruise, Va. BBQ club select.:hail:
