I personally will wait for parts sold in Europe!

Hum, very interesting, I will consider this again because I just did an order some weeks ago from Stangmods, great customer service, they replace me an entire damaged decklid panel (300+ $ in total) for free.
Anyway, I'm probably interested in a wheels/tyres set but it would be nice to know shipping and custom costs.
Ah, Papinist, I purchased the entire decklid panel to replace the EU specs round pony logo because you can't just replace it, the mounting holes are differents.
I just did it, took the US EB decklid, removed the running pony chrome logo and placed the satin black one...a not so easy job!

Found agents in Germany for Velgen Wheels and HRE Wheels which means both are selling wheels with TUV papers.

Now i just need to decide what wheels to have!

I also found a retailer of HRE wheels in the Netherlands, they're only twice as expensive compared to the AM website :/

I am planing to buy:
1. Shift knob
2. Front tri-bar leds
3. Cat-back exhaust
4. Quicklift for the hood
5. Dashboard from american GT PP (with central gauges)

But I don't know when and where

In Germany, about 30% more. Dont forget shipping cost and some living money for agent....not that bad when considering that.

 

[Notes]

I'm thinking of a quicklift for the hood as well, no drill... not sure which ones yet.

Also will get the Interior LED Conversion from diode dynamics, but as of now I can't decide on warm white or cool white.

Last but not least, I received news from UPR for the catch-can, they usually don't do group buy's but if we are with a lot they are willing to work on the pricing.
As of now I'm the only one and might order soon, would like to install it during pickup at the dealer.

I might have found a freight company who's able to collect our stuff from different US suppliers and send it over to Europe as one shipment.
Got a quote for an exhaust and was about $ 100 cheaper than whatever I found so far ! Company was advised by US Ford dealer...

Another item I want, but to buy ASAP is Craig's Custom Mustang Bracket
http://ccmustangbrackets.com/product/2015-mustang-bracket/

It's $52.95 but don't know how much is shipping to Europe. I've sent an email to him.
He also have the Redline Quicklift, so I've asked a quote for that too.

Hmm I didn't realize that wheels also need to be specifically EU approved. I have a shop that resells American Muscle stuff not to far away, perhaps I should contact them to find out how this would work.

That only goes for select countries like Germany and Belgium. In the Netherlands you can mount any wheel you like, there is no need for approval.

Personally I would leave the original Ford wheels on and just add 20mm spacers. Somehow I just don't care for aftermarket wheels anymore. Guess I'm getting old

An option for the bracket (don't see any commercial in it, just something if it could help):
I own a sheet metal company , and when i look at the product, it's something really easy to do, and not for a lot of money.

So if we could define together the design of the bracket, we could have an "euro-designed " and machined solution, with the main advantage of lower shipping costs.

Just a thought, again no commercial in it, just a way to make it easier for us euro-guys...

@Pichon: this is a great idea!
Also we can do with euro plates in mind, since with that I already imagined to drill some new hole in my plate.
We can start a new thread where we could collect size of various euro plates and studying the possibilities.
Thanks for your proposal!

Ah, thanks for the info.

I am basically just interested in having a second set for winter tires (or maybe use the standard ones for that and get some 20" wheels for summer). I'd be fine with standard Ford wheels.

Don't know if it's the same, but here in Italy we need that the size of wheels and tires we want to use are reported in the car's documents. If they are not there, we can't use it (unless we want to proceed with a new DMV homologation, which is a PITA and 99% not approved).
Also, wheels size is a check done by police every time they stop you..
