@Snoopy49,
Earl, I met up with Jason and John Jaeger this afternoon and we had a great time. Turns out they are both huge Mustang fans as well. Jason had a beautiful GT in the garage. Sadly he had to part with a 70 Boss 302 several years ago. Took all the measurements and the 2020 GT500 crowd...
Well, I guess it was inevitable, but this week I sustained the first small nick in the white vinyl striping on the GT500, up front on the hood. What do you guys recommend for patching the vinyl nicks on your cars?
Thanks! Jeff
Stephen,
Hope Noah can come through for you, but regardless it will be a very special bonding experience for you and your son when you finally take delivery. I can tell you from experience that when I took delivery of my Kona Blue #909 back in December, seeing the richness and metallic flake...

@Bangarang, @kilobravo,
Thank you. Will have to check mine out the next time I peel off the cover and listen to that fine-ass cold start-up tune.
KB- congrats on your car finally shipping.
Earl- as always, you are the best.
Adjustable strut mounts/Handling package:
Not to fan the flames too much, but I wanted to follow up on this thread a bit. My dealer's part guy shipped me what he thought might be the adjustable strut mount package for my car, but after receiving yesterday, I'm not sure it's correct. I think...
@The Chairman,
Thank you for that excellent explanation. That is exactly the description I was looking for and confirms my suspicion that this is not something you take lightly when installing. I do intend to track the car occasionally (once per year) so will need to consider whether I really...
@The Chairman,
I can confirm as well that my dealer has received and found the adjustable strut mount kit that was shipped for my car with handling package. What are everyone's thoughts on whether these will need to be installed at a certain standard setting (tolerance?) for general street use...
