Pics of my new girl

Sorry for the crapy camera pics but when I got her she was bone stock a month ago. I have added: rear tail light tint, painted emblems, 5.5 badges, CF front lip, CF rear trunk spoiler, lowering links, painted front grill matte black, amg hood badge and the infamous Forgestars which are for sale. I also have quite a bit of the yellow fog light tint left over. It is nice and thick and very easy to install. I will do $5.00 plus shipping for a set if interested.

to answer some questions above, the tint is a very thick stick 3M film that I have used on all my mustangs in the past. it is sheet and literally can be put on by anyone who has a hard dryer, that simple. Each sheet is $44 shipped and you need two sheet. I cut out the white center section myself which is super easy as you just follow the contour. the yellow tint on the fogs is very nice because at night you have three colors, fogs in yellow, xenons in blue/white, and parking lights in the normal off white.

the engine mods will be done later as I still have alot of cosmetics to do

I have the exact same tires, they suck LOL i thought i'd save some money. After ~3.5k miles they "LOOK" like they have lots of thread, but the traction light was going on everytime i got on it.
