What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[wilkinda65]

Photos don't do them justice. Because it is a red car I got the red led, not the white or smoked version.

thanks, I'll have to take a pic of mine to compare to see which I like better.

Replaced wimpy single horn with the double. Wasn't as bad as I felt based on the thread covering that. Also installed the CDC aps mirrors. win, win, win. Nifty tri-bar arrows on the glass, moved yellow BLIS light closer to the car vs WAY OUT at the ends! My 2014 Volvo S60 has those lights INSIDE the car where it's much easier to see. Last win is the wider view the aps lens gives me. The glass is what,HALF the size my S60, wife's Imprezza. So a wider view is really nice!

I think that the clear/white taillights go well with the orange.

Picked up this 2018 GT PP1 with leather Recaro's, Digital Dash, Magneride and Active Exhaust. Drove it back from KY to Tampa. Let the mods begin.

That is awesome and not a bad drive at all

Had Steeda suspension installed. Springs, shocks, struts, camber plates, etc. and stop the hop kit. Also put on the Cervini hood and side scoops (youtubes gold pony's stangosaurus has a brother now lol).
I had the factory stripe put on the hood, but will be removing it and having it redone with better materiel and a non offset stripe look. New wheels are coming today.

The previous owner put the H pipe on and it sounds great. I have mine set for quiet mode from 12:00am-8:00am. After I leave the neighborhood
I put it in sport and let her rip!

For video, just a GoPro Hero 8 Black for now. Since I'm just starting out I wanted something approachable and versatile.

Sound was initally recorded through a Edutige ETM-001 lavalier microphone that was taped just above the reverse lamp, and connected to the GoPro via the media mod case. The exhaust on these cars is so loud, though, that there was a lot of distortion on the high and low end. I could clean some of it up in post-production, but not enough for my satisfaction. Tiny, cheap mics like this condense the signal and boost the hell out of it, so I got something very loud and dynamically flat. Great for voice, not for screaming exhaust.

This setup is a Shure SM57 microphone into a Tascam DR-60 mk2 recorder. The microphone is what's known as a dynamic mic. They don't really do any sort of signal boosting/compressing, and have a much bigger range (quiet quiets, loud louds) without cutting off as much of the signal. I still have to do some work in post, but it's a much better recording to start with, and I can do a lot more with it.

Separating the sound recording from the video also gives me some more camera mounting options.
