New 2025 GT premium with rear louvers and other exterior mods

[The Ghost]

You’re right. There don’t seem to be many Silvers out there for whatever reason. But it’s a beautiful color on the S650. Very nice work!

Jeeptrix:
Thanks! That spoiler on my 06 Gt is the stock GT spoiler. I just removed it and painted it Dupont Satin Black.

Kris:
Thanks as well! I had no plans to buy silver. I once had a black and silver Prowler….rare Black Tie edition. I wasn’t planning on getting silver then either. But somehow the color just caught my eye, and won me over the Vapor Blue.

If anyone wants links to the parts I bought, just ask. I provided them in some PM’s I got.

Ghost:
Thanks as well!!!! IKR? Strange not seeing more silvers out there.

Very handsome car! Been looking for a set of those aluminum Astra Hammond louvers myself but trying to avoid the double dipping of pricing and markups and tariffs. Believe it or not those are made in Ontario Canada but most distributors are only in the US!

Phoned the manufacturer and said he wouldn't sell direct despite the fact I'm working for an automotive parts distributor! My previous distributor would have sold them to me for $750CAD but they've stopped ordering them due to low demand. Anywhere else I'd be paying $1500+ CAD.

Gonna keep looking though this post has confirmed for me all I need to know those aluminium louvers are going to look mean on the S650s! There's hardly any pictures of them online.

Well done! That is one classy looking hot rod. The silver & black rock. And your choices are perfect. Elegant.

Ciulster.:

That sucks your locality makes getting the louvers such a Pain. If you go to www.americanmuscle.com, there’s a ton of reader submitter photos of those louvers in place. But if buying, www.cjponyparts.com has them cheaper.

Thanks for the kind words! I was afraid those louvers would be too chunky, but they are slick enough to get away with. They sit tight, no rattles.

Thanks! My second black and silver car! Here’s a pic of the first one I had. Owned it for 6 years. My daily driver. Only 163 made in that color…. Was a dang circus wherever I went. Funny…those back wheels were 20” and at the time, I thought 20” wheels were wild….Now they are all around on my new GT.

(OT alert! Sorry…)

Hi All! I Got this beautiful GT Premium with only 4 miles on it. Has the 3.55 ratio option and variable exhaust, which is extremely fun! I was set on getting the Vapor Blue, but this silver was sitting in the lot and caught my eye. (It’s odd, I don’t see many 2025 silver GT’s.) So I traded in my 2006 I drove since 2007. I got the Ford Employee promotion which helped the price, and got a very decent trade-in.

Within the first week I did what I personally considered Must-Have exterior mods.

From the Ford website:
Front splitter
rear black out panel
rear spoiler

From CJ’s
aluminum rear window louvers…CJ’s had best price. Went even cheaper for Father’s Day…D’oh! Doesn’t that always happen?!?

from AM
gloss black 1/4 window louvers…only $60 for the pair. (I heeded the warnings and didn’t use the included tape. Got my own 1/2” 3M tape and adhesive promoter!)

Funny, every one of these parts is only held on by 3M tape. I prepped like crazy …and applying every piece was nerve wracking!

Personally, I am very happy with every part that went on and the final look. I’m 60 and found driving fun again. (My 06 GT was lowered and ride was rough, and my wife hated the Flowmaster drone). I have nicknamed the car Starship Enterprise, because it does look and feel like a damn spaceship to me. My 06 felt downright crude compared to this!

So I’m still in the break-in phase and finding reasons to go anywhere…lol. Incredibly fun to drive!

Bro, those louvres look amazing! Don’t normally care for them. How is it keeping the back window clean with them on?

I think the silver is a great choice.
