19 Magnetic GT PP1 "Modifying the American Muscle"

[Max Rips]

The purchase was really spontaneous as I was mostly thinking about getting a leased car instead of buying one. I've had a Challenger and a Mustang before so the thought that I'll come back to muscle cars was always in the back of my head. So one day I was browsing the internet looking at cars like all of us do every now and then and found this Mustang on Carvana with almost all the options and the color that I had saved playing with the configurator. It was a 2019 Magnetic Gray Mustang GT with A10 transmission, 400A, PP1 and 9k miles on the clock. The thought of buying it cooked a few days in my head and I finally pulled the trigger.

The car was delivered to my driveway in 5 days and that's how the journey began.

The first mod that I do to all my cars is getting rid of the chrome. So gloss black badges for the fenders and the back lid and matte black for the grill were ordered.

It's a matter of taste but to my taste, the stock automatic shifter looks awful, so I ordered a universal short shifter conversion kit from WM Garage along with their magnetic gray shift knob and a manual shift boot from Ford with stitching matching the seats. It turned out perfect looking like stock. Installation took about 15 minutes.

The next mod that adds to the stealthier look was the smoked side markers from Diode Dynamics. No way these red spots were staying on my rear bumper. Installation took around 5 minutes. You don't even have to jack the car.

The next must-have mod that I also do to all my cars is lowering the car and getting the "proper" wheel fitment. I love how stock PP1 wheels look with spacers, so I ordered 1-inch spacers all around. After browsing through hundreds of photos showing different drops with springs I came to Steeda progressives being the best for my taste. To keep the proper camber settings Steeda camber plates were also ordered. So all the orders got delivered and the biggest challenge now is to figure out how to get the car up my driveway when it's lowered, because that's how it looks right now still on stock springs:

The rubber 2.5-inch ramp was ordered on Amazon and I really hope it will help solve this problem.

Love this.....Will try to replicate your efforts here.
