I saw this thread over in the sixxer section, figured we could make one over here. If your like me I get on here to see what other people do to there mustangs to get ideas of what to do to mine (and like to look at pictures!). Anything from performance mods to custom painting in the interior could be thrown around here. I will start it off... I added SLP Loudmouth exhaust to my 2008 GT over the weekend, I will add pics tomorrow!

^ Amen to that. I found a used tire warehouse near my office. I walked it and asked if they sold to the public. he said what size, I told him, he called in spanish on his radio. 3 mins later a guy rolls up with to pirellis in great shape.
Thats what I call service. Ill be burning these shitty kumho's off soon and getting some more used goodness.
I'll assume you mean matte black and not gloss black lol

Either is fine! Just make sure you match the black to any existing black accents you have on your car. If you have matte black accents then go with matte black wheels, if you have gloss black accents then go with gloss black wheels.
Find out how much for a set of 4 235/50/18s and I'll pay you to get and ship them lol.
For $25 they're awesome.

Should be $100. I'll swing by next week and see what they have man.
They aren't great, but there are a lot worse out there. The kumhos have the softest sidewall ever. The car sways the whole time on the hwy. I had Pirelli's on the rear that I burned to the threads last night when my boss asked for a burn out.
Moral of the story ^^
Man that sucks!

Oh I mounted those pirellis, and washed the car finally.
I want some PS3s for my first set on the new ride.

Use a wrench. And a grease gun. And a torque wrench.
In all seriousness, it's probably easier to install than a CAI. It's two 18mm bolts. Use a 1/2" wrench because those suspension bolts can be a bitch if they're painted with Loctite from the factory like mine were. I didn't use a plumb bob to adjust it, I just eyed it. Adjust it to be the same length as your stock one before putting it in. Pay attention to the grease fittings so that you install so the fittings are accessible when you go back later to re-grease it. Make sure you torque everything to spec. PHB bolts are 129 ft/lbs.
This guide is actually pretty solid: http://1.cdn.lib.americanmuscle.com/files/49606-cust.pdf
