Roush spoiler installed. Wow!

Looks good! Is that painted or unfinished?

The Roush spoiler came primered. I had it painted black and had them add a flattening agent to the clear to knock the sheen off, but not to the point that I can't put wax on it. Came out perfect

Had the windows tinted today.

What % tint did you get?

 

[jpilone]

Legal Florida tint. Windows are 30 or 35%. Not real dark.

Steeda trans mount bushing insert
Steeda shifter mount bushing
Steeda front swaybar

Bled brakes with rbf600 hi temp fluid for track day coming up
Changed trans fluid to Mobil 1 synthetic

First track day on the books. The car did great! The PP brakes are awesome! When I install my steeda splitter, I'll be conjuring up some new brake cooling ducts through the blocked off sections of the lower grille..

So guys, it's been a while since any updates. And it's true, I haven't done JACK to my car. However, on 4/22, I ORDERED a 2017 GT350! I'll be sad to see this car go, as it's my first special ordered car. But it will never be a Shelby GT350. I currently am in a position in my life where I can afford it, and I said screw it!

Also the fact that I had the opportunity to order and am getting it at MSRP since I'm an employee of the dealer chain.

I don't expect to see the car till Christmas time unfortunately. Maybe Ford will build them sooner, but I am not getting my hopes up..

Stay tuned, i'll post updates!

I said goodbye to Big Orange last night. Ended up finding a 2016 GT350 Track Pack. My 2017 order was going to take 6+ months and with the price difference and the quick depreciation on my car, it made too much sense to get this car right now.
