Curious on how you did your carbon airbag cover? Did you separate trim pieces, finish then glue back on?

VERY nice! I too have an Alloy. After seeing a couple GT500/Super Snake's in Alloy, I've been close to doing the conversion as well in fact the conversion pieces are sitting in my online shopping cart at our local Ford dealer.
I won't hijack your post with pics of mine, but if you haven't seen this Alloy, I thought you might enjoy it!
P.S. I've gone back/forth over the GT500 cowl hood vs the Super Snake. Your cowl looks VERY good! :happythumbs:

It looks like you are in Ohio, are you close enough to plan on attending Mustang Alley this year (extension of Woodward Cruise)? Over 1000 Mustangs expected at a very impressive Ford sponsored event. Bucket list stuff!

Always third Saturday in August. Literally 1.5 million people, 50,000 cars (Woodward Cruise). 8+ lanes wide of bumper to bumper cars covering over 10 miles. Dozens of side shows. Nothing like it. World's largest rolling single day car show. It takes an hour to go a single mile if you choose to drive in it. The municipalities here are bracing for as many as 2 million people due to Covid shuttering much of last year.

Mustang Alley is top notch with dozens of actual Ford Engineers volunteering their day.

Guarantee if you attend you will be back. There is nothing like it. I've attended 10 years of Mustang Alley and 15 years at Woodward Cruise itself.

I actually met the first owner of my Alloy at Mustang Alley in 2008, we hit it off, in 2018 he offered it to me for a deal I couldn't refuse!
It currently has 11,000 miles.

Here it is when he owned it entering Mustang Alley to be displayed, one of the thousands of engineer pics taken over the years (this is probably about 10 years ago).

Nice, I’ve always wanted a KB supercharger going all the way back to my fox days. Plan on switching to one soon from the nitrous. Maybe one day I’ll grow up and have one nice as that lol.

Sweet ride! Always wanted a KB myself. Sadly, when I go 3/4 throttle in my NA GT, my best beloved starts grabbing the "oh sh!t" handles.
