    Hi everybody, I picked up a 99 GT from the original owners back in november. The car is completely stock with 196,xxx miles with a full service record, the car looks and drives amazing for the age. I bought it with intentions of it being a temp dd but it's proven to be a great car. Other cars I've owned SVT contour, lifted full size chevy, jeep wrangler rubi so I've been an active user on other forums and know how great a tool the search button is.
    Mods in store for the beast
    -20% tint (I have 100' roll but no motivation to lay it in the cold)
    -projectors and 4600k HID's (my headlights are hazed like no other this may happen very soon)
    -tasteful 17-18"s with better tread(keeping eyes open for a good deal)
    -new struts and possibly lowering springs (196k on stock struts eek)
    -remote locks
    -instal my mb components and amp
    -look into a split fold back seat
    -get my fog lights to work
    Just some clean additions and upgrades to things needing replacement.

    Thanks for the warm welcome!
    I've looked into the top swap, cool idea but work full time and doing 15 credits to knock out my bachelors so me daily can't be down for more than an afternoon haha. It may be worth scouting out some deals for the parts hmm
