Post some pics!

I already spent part of the first evening programming stuff on the Sync3 and programmed the garage door opener, all while listening to the stereo. Felt like I was 16 again (heh - if I'd been making LOTS more money at 16, that is...)[/QUOTE]

Loved the part about feeling 16 again:thumbsup:
Every time I drive mine it makes me feel at least 10yrs younger. I grin like an idiot to at anyone I catch staring at her:lol:

(wanna research best product to use for washing before I wash it for the first time)
I did that this week. So much stuff on the way.


took off the front plate bracket, and ordered a pair of bumper plugs.
That reminds me of something I noticed the first time I washed it. Looks like the holes for the plate bracket are predrilled, then painted over. There are 2 little dimples in my front bumper. Weird. But I guess that's one way to make sure that the prep guys get the bracket on center and straight. :shrug:

Thank you! I got the red trims from eBay lol. Got it for about $23 from what I can remember and searched for the following terms "Ford Mustang 2015 Air Vent Trim Aluminum". Just did a search saw silver, blue, and purple available.
I've seen the red pcs. on amazon not sure of the price.Where did you get the carbon fiber AC rings?

It's just dimples formed in the mold to show where to drill. Many cars do that to help so the holes aren't misaligned.

Those are from S550 Carbon / Carbon Cartel / Carbon Plug. I think he is still (maybe not anymore) a sponsor on here and the guy's name is Dan? Link is here: https://carbonplug.com/s550carbon/carbon-fiber-air-vent-faces
Looks good. I was looking at the price... at first: "Not bad"

Then looked down, and realized that price of $130 was for one. Ooof. I'll pass. They look great though. :thumbsup:

I still want the full replacement carbon dash panel. I was hoping that with it being an option on the 18s that maybe you'd see an official ford piece for sale (for a reasonable price ...lol), but that hasn't been the case afaik.

Well yesterday, I took the car auto-xing and tested out the new suspension. I experimented with dampener settings but need more seat time to really get it sorted out.

Quick little wipe down before taking a little drive.

Did I tell ya'll how much I love this car just in its stock form. I'm still having a hard time deciding what I even need to change right now. I am even content with the drop. The car is so well behaved I don't want to sacrifice any of the feeling.
