No, it’s short Universal shifter kit from White Madness Garage...
I looked on their site and can’t find anything for manual, especially for boot ring and r lock in black

That’s on the picture is an automatic converted with the manual boot but still auto.
For manual you can buy shift knob and use stock shifter...

What do the screws fasten into? If you remove them later do you have holes in the bumper cover?
There are 2 small screws that go into the bumper cover under the fog light. They would be visible on removal.
I suppose you could use 3m tape all around and it would work.

Yeah, was thinking that. The thought of pulling holes in the bumper cover gives me the willies. I would think 3M tape would provide enough hold.

I washed my “new to me” 2015 GT. I’m new to the mustang world, but this car is amazing.

PS.. these tail lights were on the car when I bought it and new ones cost a fortune, so don’t hate on me too much.
But they have kind of grown on me though.
Sorry for the crappy night time pix.

It had a CAI and muffler deletes when I bought it.
I removed the mid muffler and installed an X-pipe.

I’ve added the GT350 Red Push to start button and shift Knob. Changed the dash plaque and went 5% tint all around.
I’ve ordered a bunch of little things that will be going on soon.
most excited about the Eibachs and VT Big Mouths though. Tune and Programmer will be soon.

Please buddy, don't do plywood.

Grind the paint off on the affected area, then hit the bare metal with weld-through primer, and take it to a local welder with some 1/4 steel plate (also hit with weld-through primer) and have that welded in.

Spend the $100-$200 to do it correctly, don't take any further risks.
I just took the wheels off instead of playing around with it. Plenty stable and safe now!

You have a very nice vehicle and already have a few nice mods. I wonder if the car previously belonged to one of the forum members on here. I thought that I saw pics of a very similar car a while back.

Welcome to the club! If you get the itch to change those tails back to stock: https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/2018-2020-oem-tail-lights.151104/
If you can... I say do it. In my opinion those Ford GT style tails look really odd on the Mustang. Otherwise nice car! I dig the Hot-Wheels logos though. :like: Did you remove them?

I removed the HOT-Wheels logos as soon as I got home.

I also ripped off the black corner head light tint with red pin striping and put on full headlight tint.

I left the red stripes on the bottom of the front bumper cover. I want to see what it will look like when I put the new grill in with the double VT big mouths. The grill is a cheap eBay “cobra grill”. I’m gonna cut out the side triangles and leave the middle. It doesn’t have the pony logo. I’m going to put my new coyote badge over the cobra insert. It cost $56 for the grill.

So did one or both wheels break or did they punch thru the bottom of the cabinet or ???

That would be awesome if it was another members vehicle. I can ask them “Where the HELL is the strut tower brace and the Ricaro seats” haha

The old window sticker shows ricaro seats. But my GT currently has “regular” Leather seats

I posted in the introduction section a couple of weeks ago I believe. You may have just seen that. But hopefully they come out of hiding. They may have transferred those Ricaros to a new mustang..: 🤔

The front wheel threaded bushings seem to just go into the sheet metal. They just folded over enough to cause tipping and once momentum got going it just came over. You could wiggle the wheels and cause the sheet metal to detent and "thunk-thunk" back and forth. They were tight (hard to get off actually). I saved the wheels as they are quite heavy duty and undamaged.
