New owner: 15 GT Base Guard Green

[Sammzway]

Well folks, finally joined the club. Thanks to everyone that helped me with valuable information to make my decision easy and precise. I got exactly what I wanted and though it was a hassle to find what I wanted but glad it's over. I pick her up tomorrow. Told the dealer DO NOT drill holes, just hand me the front plates. We will see what happens tomorrow.

Questions:
What are my best option to mount front plates? I drive into NYC often and it's a must have. Plus my brother is a cop and he will be up my arse about it.

I'm thinking about tint, anyone have any recommendation on how dark I should go? It's guard green and I feel like lighter tint would look better on it than 20%. I was thinking 35%.

Any other cheap yet useful mods you guys suggest? My wife just told me she'll buy me the PP black wheels for my B-day since she likes those better than these. Figured I will use these for winter with winter tires. Yes, she's an American V8 fanatic.

YAY, so excited!! My first :ford:

check around though for labor day sales

I would suggest not buying the pp wheels and check out the wheel section here and get you some wider better offset aftermarket wheels. our vendors are really good here with wheels and deals are awesome.

your must have mod though is definitely exhaust, check out the v8 section huge exhaust thread that's stickied and about 1000 threads. 2nd must have would be lowering it, especially if you get aftermarket wheels...really sets the car off.

Congratz man! Post pics!

As for the front plates, I bought Craig's No-Drill bracket: http://ccmustangbrackets.com/product/2015-mustang-bracket/

I like it so much, it is stupid-easy and fast to remove and install (only one nut, removable by hand no need for tools)

This, plus it mounts in the factory location.

+1 for this. Dont care for the stow-n-go as it hangs under the splitter and will be the first thing to scrape.

I have it with 1" drop springs and never scrapped

 

[Khyber]

it won't scrape as long as you pay attention, just like the front end won't scrape if you pay attention

After thoroughly inspecting both products. I decided to order the sto-n-go since it's bolted on instead of stuck on. I'm sure both products are great but it was a personal preference. Thanks all.

Car was picked up at 24 miles and already has 110 miles. The salesman told me to drive it hard then normal then hard etc. In other words, not to do consistent speed or driving style. He claimed it seated everything properly inside the engine. I tried SO hard to take it easy but my god, it's so addicting this car and I high revved a few times (several times) and really pushed the car. I feel horrible and maybe I shouldn't had abused the engine like that since it isn't broken in and all. But I just can't help it.

Also, the attention this car gets from the general crowd is amazing. At least one person walked up and started discussion each place I went. Of course the stare as well.

The way you are driving is perfect.
