    Hood Painting Cost

    Quality Finish Solutions 830 899 2004 Over near Canyon Lake. Does beautiful work. Fixed my woman's bumper, she'd hit a curb stop and sprung it loose on both sides at the fenders. Another place quoted her a couple of grand. He did it, and replaced the torn up air sweep underneath for $400...

    '06 GT, Difficulty pumping fuel (shuts off)

    I bought my 05 GT a few years ago from the original owner. First time I filled up it cut off every second or two unless I was barely trickling the gas in. It took FOREVER to fill up and was maddening. Got on here and found out about turning the the pump handle upside down. As long as I do that...

    05 - 09 Door Panels

    Yeah, I reglued mine using contact cement. Held well for about 2 years. One side began to come loose in the middle, enough to annoy the shit out of me. Of course it was the passenger side so I got to look at it every time I got in or drove the car. I said screw it, and got the Coverlays. My door...

    Steeda susp

    Bilstein solved the rough, jarring ride on my lowered 05 GT. Bilsteins will go on everything from now on. I also used Steeda springs. Which ever ones lower 1 inch in front and 1.25 in the rear

    05 GT leaking gas only when pumping at gas station

    I have to pump my 05 GT with the handle upside down or the handle will click off every 2 seconds. Upside down, fills right up, no problem.

    Improving comfort and ride quality

    Springs and dampers at the same time. And I beg to differ on .3 inches making little difference. .3 at the hub isn't much but transferred out to my chin spoiler it's significant. I had added 245/45r19 tires on 19x8.5 front wheels with the original Eibachs at 1.3 drop, and from the side, the gap...

    Improving comfort and ride quality

    Agreed. Unless the 2019's have dramatically improved the ride, I'll add them again!

    Improving comfort and ride quality

    Yes. Eibach Pro springs. My bad......still awful ride with the original dampers. But I bought it used that way, so what are ya gonna do? My point was......changing the springs and dampers solved the problem. The Eibachs were too low for my taste, anyway. 1 front and 1.25 rear is perfect for me...

    Improving comfort and ride quality

    My 05 GT had Eibach sport springs (1.3 fr, 1.5 rear) and original dampers, 28k miles and road like a buckboard. I couldn't stand it. I bought Steeda sport linear springs, 1 inch front 1.25 rear and Bilstein shocks/ struts. Night and day difference. Still a nice firm ride, no diving, minimal body...

    What will the corona virus do to the car market? (used/car parts)

    I've been looking for slightly used 2019 base GT autos. I REALLY need to get to 60 in around 4 seconds......stock. They're hovering around $30k. While looking at one online, Ford had an ad for new 2020's. 0% for 84 months and no payments for 4 months, I believe it said, through Ford Motor...

    Axle Back Questions and Deafening Cabin Noise

    I have the Ford Performance FR500S (M-5230-S) axle back mufflers on my stock 05 GT. Very nice sound. I've had several friends at work comment how good they sound and even my girl friend likes it! Around $500. Zero drone at any speed. One thing I did before installing was to paint the cans flat...

    Aren't you a little too old for that car? (Answer)

    Late 60's and took off work last year to drive up to Oklahoma and pick up my one owner '05, screaming yellow GT. Old fart my age had only put 28k on it. People where I work said, "Damn Kyle, you look good in that car. Looks like it's taken 10 years off your age....." As well they should. :beer:

    Needing new tie rod ends and sway bar links

    Decided to replace my front sway bar bushings as well, along with the end links. I'm not keen on laying all the way under the car on jack stands. I also have ramps. I should be able to replace the front sway bar bushings with the car up on ramps, right? Even with the suspension loaded, the sway...

    Ended up ordering Moog tie rod ends and Proforged sway bar links. We'll see how they work out. Thanks again.

    Needing new tie rod ends and sway bar links

    Thanks for the input. I looked over BMR's links and it turns out the joints are made by Proforged, and the Rod End Supply......well, I'm afraid I'm not smart enough to even decipher their website...... I'll add that it's my part time daily driver, never will be tracked, won't see any extreme...

    Needing new tie rod ends and sway bar links

    Title says it all. Looking on rockauto for my parts, lots of choices. Moog, Proforged, or Mevotech? Anyone have any first hand experience or preference for any of these. All are around the same price within a few bucks. Thanks guys.
