Hey guys just wanted to introduce myself and share some pics of my ride. My name is Jared and I purchased a 2012 Grabber Blue 6spd 5.0 a couple months ago. Really loving this car so far. Will be installing a Beefcake special Vortec this weekend with some good buddies along with some LT headers and O/R X pipe. Car has around 13,300 miles so I have put about 500 or so on it since buying it. Bought the car from a dealership where I work just before they sent it to auction so I got a deal to good to pass up since they passed the savings of transport and auction fees on to me also.






We had a used 2013 on our lot when I bought this one and the GM let me swap out the taillights with it. Looks much better IMO.

Welcome Jared, nice looking stang! Hope all goes smooth on the install. I've got a set of wheels you'll be needing very soon lol.

Welcome to the madness

Thanks guys. Yeah I have been lurking for a while. Have had a few mustangs over the years. I have had 2 95GT, 2000 Mustang V6 (Mach 1 crate motor, T56, 8.8 swap) and now this one. Currently still have my first 95GT that I am doing a complete 03-04 cobra swap to. Also rebuilding a 2001 Corvette Z06 that I bought wrecked but the GB 12 has taken priority over everything.

Jason I'd love to have them. Would love to work out a deal with ya. I'm sure I will need them.

Thanks guys. I asked the GM and he said let me take a look at them. He checked mine out as well as his. He said I think the red lights will look better on our Black GT, go for it. I didn't hesitate I pulled them out back and got to work haha.

Welcome

Not sure why folks think those taillights look better...

 

[96juicedgt]

Thanks.

I think they look much better than the stockers. To each his own though.

That's gonna suck for whomever buys the '13/14 that those came off of....

Welcome an good luck with the SC install!

If I were that guy I'd just demand the oem lights put on before I bought. And not pay extra for them.

 

[96juicedgt]

It actually sold 3-4 days later after sitting here for a couple months.

Install went well. We did the BBK LT headers and O/R X as well. Sounds good even still on the stock mufflers. Getting it tuned on the 22nd.

Welcome Jared. Love the new car buddy.
