What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

Attended a car show in Sonoma, CA...and was lucky enough to have this car park next to me (yes I know it is not a mustang...but still really neat):

To early to tell, I drove it about 25 miles (in wet weather) after I installed everything. I've heard stories about NVH but I didn't really notice any added NVH yet. I did grease most of the parts during install which maybe helped with that. Will report back after the other parts are on. Just a heads up, I didn't have a ton of wheel hop to begin with but wanted to tighten everything up anyways.

Gave it a good wash. I'm taking it in to the body shop for a right rear fender shopping cart dent repair tomorrow. Just a little apprehensive as the rest of the car's paint is perfect. Hope it comes back that way.

I installed a plain the rear deck panel with a running pony emblem on it.
I like the PONY look better than the GT. What do you think?

Looks MUCH better. I really dislike alphanumeric badging but like symbolic. I'm going to do that or similar as soon as I figure out what to use to cover the 5.0 badge holes in the fenders. Want to do all at the same time.

He will the first time he bottoms out on the jacking rails.


As for me spring came and after a week of wet weather. I started to notice things even without washing the car. There is this set of new scratches about a foot and a half long from the headlight over the fender. It looks like someone fell against the car and scratched it up falling down. On the driver’s side, more scratches/scuff marks on the edge of the driver’s door. This wasn’t there two weeks ago. So the car lasted 1 year and 10 months basically looking new and then it hit the wall. You won’t see it a few feet away but his car is now just another car. No new dents since I picked it up new but I should hand wash it and make sure before I open my mouth.

It is now official. Only two mustangs left in my neighbourhood both S550 V6 models. I thought this one guy was storing his GT but he has definitely replaced it with a people mover.

Took advantage of the Steeda sale to order Steeda Extreme G-Trac, IRS Subframe Braces, and Low-Profile Jacking Rails.

Me too. Thought it was unique but as soon as I did it - I saw another one. Did FORD make one like that?
Oh-well - if not - that driver had good taste. lol
I bought some smaller pony emblems on eBay - good quality chrome measure 3" long x 1" tall
They may cover the holes left by removing the 5.0 badge?
I was thinking about adding them above or below the 5.0 ?
I don't know - they've been sitting on my desk for a while.
Pictures don't do them justice. Nice reduced version worthy of putting on your car... somewhere. Inside?
