Title: Stang1 2017 Lightning Blue
Post by: Stang1 on May 10, 2018, 09:27:39 pm: Hi All

New on this forum, this is my August 2017 build Mustang GT, I bought the car Brand new from Jarvis ford, they were fantastic and I got an awesome deal with the following extras thrown in!

Boot liner, OTT silver stripes, premium plates, blue engine covers, silver wheels, a short throw shifter, nickel wheels, tinted windows, armour glaze finish and scotch guard interior, one year of car washes plus one year of Landcruiser car washes my other car (maximum one per week) as well as all on roads and a tank of juice three mustang stubbie holders a key ring, and two Mustang scotch glasses and because of a small glitch picking it up yesterday they have given me my 15,000 k service completely freE

Ive since done a few things myself

Empire Cat Back (awesome sound no drone)
Hood strut kit
Cold air intake
Engine brace
Oil separator
Spare wheel, jack etc
20inch Foose Legend, chrome wheels
Pirelli PZero tires
Side stripes
BC Racing coilovers fully adjustable suspension, dropped the car around 40mm
Sequential tail lights
Swapped all my globes for LEDs except the head lights
Personalised number plate
Also a bunch of minor cosmetic changes

So what’s next?

I want to get the head lights done with the halos etc at Loudz Creations
Then maybe a bonnet change and rear spoiler
Body wise I don’t want to go silly I don’t want it to start looking like a skyline with over the top body kit.

Safe driving fellow Stangers!

Thanks Scott, yes I’m not a big fan of black wheels on the S550 although some do suit depending on colour/stripes, I recon most black wheels look best on a 4x4 really. I wanted mine to look cool, different and complement the nastalgic look of the S550 and I think I’ve nailed it? The Mustang is the best toy I’ve ever bought myself! Cheers!
