..and I've already got a few mods on the 12' 5.0. 
I guess technically the first "upgrade" was the Silverstar Ultra's I swapped over while I had both cars at the dealership but I really don't count those. I have a ton of pictures with some questions so feel free to answer em!
The first mod I went with were the GT500 mufflers. It didn't take long to decide on these and the price was great too. Absolutely amazing sound! Got em off a member on here. Thanks again for the great packaging! Came off a GT500 with 0 miles so they were practically new.
What's up with the bracket having a huge cover over it?
The next mod was the GT500 spoiler. Had one on my 07' and got it for $115 painted and shipped and was looking to pay the same price. Didn't happen that way of course. After doing some research, it turns out that the eBay "2010+ GT500 spoilers" are just the camera spoilers that come on the newer mustangs. I know there's a thread on here all about that. So I went ahead and forked over the $300 bucks on the painted 3dCarbon"3d500" spoiler. Came packaged great and looks even better. Even had the gurney flap painted black too.
The night I put them on:
..and then the last mod I put on this evening, an Airaid Intake. I'm uber impressed by the quality of this kit. Everything is top notch on this kit. I'm even more impressed with the sound this thing makes when you give it a little rev. Way louder than the Roush(Airaid) kit that was on my 07'. Sounds almost like a mini high pitch turbo spooling. Love it! Oh and I got me a new X3 with it since I let it go with the 07' needed a new one when its time for tuning. Oh and I had my first crash with an SCT when I tried to update the firmware. Awesome...not.
I'll have to get with SCT in the morning or something.
The old:
The new:
I could be wrong but I noticed on my 12' the front cover looks smoother than what I've seen on the 11's. Is this the "upgraded" cover that you can find from Ford Racing? Not the best picture but its the passenger side your looking at.
Also whats up with all the clutter around the throttle body? Thats a lot of lines Ford...
Oh also got tint done before any of these mods. I can now update my signature, hope you enjoyed!
