Thanks guys! I appreciate the compliments!
Overall I want it to have a fairly stock appearance. I will be keeping the yellow turn signals/side markers and will be adding 2011+ SVTPP wheels. It should have a sleeper look to it, I think! lol.

I've been needing to get the windows tinted, I just have not found the time to drop it off. I will be getting 5% all around and possibly a light tint on the windshield.

I even had the front windshield Medium one piece tinted. On a sunny day you couldn't see in the car if you put your face to the window!!! LOL!

Stiff fine FML!!!!:dunce:

Another scenario, I went to the State Police Troop here to ask a question when I had my '07, yup, I was just asking a freakin question, the friendly officer saw my car in the parking lot, totally ignored my question, went and got his tint meter and threatened me with a ticket. LOL!!!!!! Never did answer my question.:nk::crazy:

And this is why I could never be a cop... I would be checking out your car to see what mods you had done.. "Oooo, I like that!" :lol2:

Nice build and upgrade! I went a similar route and acquired a GT500 while i part out my GT. The mod bug is in full effect , came back for vengeance worst than ever!

I really got to avoid threads like this.. I'm de-modding my GT as we speak and I'm really fighting the urge to mod the Shelby I just acquired. It's just blows my mind with a smaller pulley, CAI, idler pulley, and a tune you can be at almost 600RWHP with less then I spent on my Kooks LT headers and O/H pipe on my GT!!!! I just need to slowly back of threads like theses... Lol

How can he threaten you with a ticket if you trailered your car over there?

Thanks man! I like it so far, If I get tired of it I may do a stripe delete or do a complete vinyl wrap color change.

I agree... Would have kept the vert too. Black on black is too blah

The vert was black on black too, until I swapped the leather.

Thanks, I hope I don't end up as bad as before, but only time will tell.

I do love the potential of the car out of the box, but it's going to take more than a pulley and bolt ons to get back where I was.

Honestly, after I'm done parting out and selling the vert, the GT500 should be paid for with a little left over. The GT500 has been my dream car since it came out, and I couldn't be happier about owning one.
