    What's up with this eBay Mustang?

    Hi all - I don't post here that much, but when I come across ads like this, my blood starts to boil. I follow Mustang prices quite well, and know that a car in this condition would barely fetch this much as a K-code project.. but it's only an A-code. I know there is some shill bidding going on...

    Hey everybody, The '07 Shelby Gt has about 22,000 on the odometer, and the brakes are squeaking. After pulling a front and rear wheel off to check the pads, as well as checking the other side with a flashlight, the pads still seem to be pretty meaty.. They are by no means in need of...

    GT500 Spoiler Install.. How?

    I just purchased an OEM spoiler from eBay, although it did not come with a template.. Do any of you know where to drill the holes? I know how to prep the surface and install the stripes, I just don't know where to drill. Any help would be great. Thanks! :nice:

    My pictures of 2010 Mustang from LA Auto Show

    I went to the show yesterday.. I thought I would get a bunch of pictures for everyone. New colors are amazing in person. A lot of you guys thought that was a key hole in the spoiler--it's a camera. The interior is vastly improved.. very luxurious.. Dash does have a "soft touch".. not just...

    Anybody install a GT500 spoiler on a non-spoiler car?

    Kooldawg's write-up on the GT500 spoiler install was great, although his car already had the holes. I am very serious about installing a GT500 spoiler on the Shelby, although starting with a bare trunklid might be difficult.. For those of you that have purchased the spoilers, Ford or...

    Removing side scoop from quarter panel??

    My passenger side scoop has never been completely attached to the car.. The double-sided tape did not stick very well from the factory... (from Ford, not Shelby.. so no Shelby GT bashing :nonono: ).. Rather than go the dealership route (they CANNOT "re-tape" the scoop, they have to order...

    Correct tire PSI?? What do you guys run??

    Okay, this is the first car I have ever owned with tire-pressure monitoring.. The stickers all over the door jamb suggest 32 PSI for the tires, although the sidewalls say 44PSI max.. I want the best mileage, and I don't want the TPM light to go on.. I could care less about ride quality...
