It's an 06 GT 5 speed, picked it up last friday.
So far I've added:
-CDC agressive chin spoiler
-smoked side markers/front turn signals
-smoked fog lights
-gt500 spoiler
I have a few go fast goodies on the way as well.
The wheels I want are out of stock right now.
After spending hours of detailing and getting the swirl marks out:

Thanks!
I was looking at the 2010 gt500 replica's in black, they're out of stock on american muscle right now though, so i guess ill wait it out.

What did you have to do to the lower grill insert and bumper cover to get that chin spoiler on?

The lower grill just pops right out, but you have to cut out the 3 bars behind the lower grill, then make a cut out everything in place of the lower grill 1" behind the front of the bumper. Check the instructions on american muscle, it's pretty easy, a cutting wheel or a saw will do the trick pretty easily.

Thank you sir! I liked my 03 alot, but it was racking up the miles quick. It was at 110k when i sold it. I've got quite a bit planned for this one so hopefully it'll turn out how i want it.

Haha, know how that goes, I was at 136k on my Mystic when I sold it, they add up quick. Look forward to seeing what you do with the car, I'm sure it'll be great!

looks great - gotta love than chin spoiler. how much are you going to drop it? I went 1.5" on the front and rear and I am pretty happy with how it looks (other than it makes me want 19-20" wheels)

I ordered an eibach pro kit which lowers it around 1.3/1.5 i believe. I don't want it too low since the chin spoiler already scrapes up and down my driveway. After that I should be done with the appearance mods.

I need just a little more to beat him since mine does weigh a couple hundred lbs more. I really want to get cams but I don't know where to get them installed.
