      Very nice! I just bought a new 5.0 as well.. Eibach Sportline springs just got delievered today... will be going on this weekend to sit on a set of +24 offset Shelby Razors...

      I like the CS style... tho mine isn't one, i plan on adding the CS front lip, and rear lip, as well as a GT500 spoiler.

      Looking good boss!

      May I ask, what have you done to your suspension thus far? Also, how'd you get your front grille to be soo black? Professionally painted?

        When you do... please report back what their plans are for painting the ABS plastic? I'm really considering getting all my plastic paitned as well... but have been told by 2 shops now that they wont garuntee any work beacuse they 'know" its going to crack and chip since it will not bond to the plastic well, and given their location on the car, rock chips will inevitably lead to cracks/flaking...

        My 2nd option was considering getting the pieces all vinyl wrapped.

          First off thank you haha, I recognize your signature from a few of the mustang forums im on, and congrats on the new car! I had also been looking at the shelby razors also in the search for wheels. So far I have the Eibach Pro-Street coilovers and a J&M adjustable panhard bar. I had the Eibach Pro-Kit but with the new wheels have a 35 sidewall there was way to much gap for me. As far as the grille, it is the stock GT/CS grille that came on the car, I just sanded it and used flat black spray paint haha, It was really easy aside for taking the front bumper off. It ended up chipping a little, as you can see from the pictures but I plan on respraying it again soon.

          Yeah I have heard stories about shops not painting the ABS plastic parts for that very reason, I might go up to the local paint shop and ask a little more about it. Theres actually a member on one of the mustang forums (I forget which one) but he also has a performance white stang and he had his gt500 spoiler and roof done in flat black vinyl and it looks amazing. I would be curious how it would hold up againt the inevitable rocks and such on the front valance, side skirts and rear diffuser.

                If they scuff the Parts down decent enough and use enough adhesion promoter it should stick. but again sometimes it just doesnt like sticking to plastic.

                      Dude, that car is hella clean. I love it man. The projectors on those cars give them such an aggressive look.

                        We'll go up to joe z's shop one day and see what he says about the lips and skirts, i think it will look so much better what that done. Plus, the only lip that might crack/get rock chips is the front one, so you could always just get it sprayed once a year lol
