Part 2 of a Mustang build. Did a 2015 GT PP years ago. The build thread can be accessed through a link on my signature if interested in seeing what I did. Going to do something similar but different as well. Build schedule shows the week of 1/29. Vapor blue, 400A, Performance package, Nite pony package, Recaros, B&O sound. Have a room full of RTR parts. Going to try this out first and may change down the road. Steeda stop the hop package and jacking rails. Wheels will come eventually as well as a whipple supercharger. Should have the vehicle some time in February. Can't wait.

I had a strut Tower brace, oil separator, and resonator delete h-pipe already in my garage before my car arrived also! Mine came with the base 18 inch black wheels, I just don't like black wheels at all and I had a set of aftermarket ones on order that arrived the day after the car did.
I had the h-pipe done at a local muffler shop and when the guy pulled it around he said this car has a hundred miles on it and you're cutting it up already? I said yes and he said man that's really cool!

Nice. lol. I never leave anything I buy stock. Haven't decided on resonator delete or cat back. Iam partial to Borla but the AWE system is really nice. Car will be Vapor with all black. I like the RTR Aero 5's but may just get a set of signature SV104's.

Iam a Ford Salaried retiree that worked in vehicle operations at three different plants in my career. Last plant was the Dearborn Truck Plant in the Material Handling/scheduling department. I have long standing friends/connections at the Flat Rock Plant.
Nice! I see yours got scheduled pretty quickly and a total of 107 days later, you got it. I have a few more months to go, but I haven't even been scheduled yet.

Little update. The car is in the final building in trim and chassis today. It should be finished tomorrow sometime. Looking forward to getting it and starting my build.

My car is complete and finished. Now just the wait for the shipping. NAVL has the VIN and will be shipping via rail. Can't wait to get it so I can build it to my specs.

Did any of your friends at the factory send you any pics of it during the assembly process? That woule be beyond cool, and something that no one else has.

What do you plan to do with it to "Make it your own"?
