Lamin X pre cut tint is really good. A little tough to put the first one on at first but ince you figure it out its easy. Better than spray painting and ruining a light. Which since its virtually impossible to remove paint on lights without lense damage

I totally agree. I used the precut on my fusion, but the contours were minimal on that style. These ones look a bit trickier. I'm just worried about bubbles/wrinkles/misalignment and be out 50 bucks

I didnt use enough water on first one. After that i did and it was fine. Bubbles will last about 2 to 3 weeks. They do go away. The countours are tough but workable. Like the directions say though. Take a pin and pop any bubbles that occur. Do it for as long as you see em. Just watch you dont leave a crease. Now the thing is this. Colder temps are here. I did mine in summer when the heat helped alot. Keep that in mind.

Not a decal. Its an actual aluminum cover. Very pricey for what you get. I was a little ****** when they came. 112 bucks for front and back.

Yea that's on point man. That's the look I'm going for except I want to leave all the white portions untinted.

First time SHO owner and first time on the forum. I recently traded in my 2014 5.0 for a 2015 SHO ....

I just did the same thing, '13 Race Red 5.0 to Tuxedo Black '14 SHO.

Miss my Stang, but Winter's coming so AWD is a definite plus.

While I miss the performance and fun factor of my '12 Mustang GT, the SHO is DEFINITELY a better family car. Congrats on your new ride, you'll definitely enjoy it!

Mine will remain virtually stock, I'll end up with window tint and probably a tune. I don't expect it to be as fast as the Mustang was. :D

With a tune it will be faster than a stock stang..

So crazy, but true! And compared to the 05-10 (granted it's the smaller 4.6) GTs, the tuned SHO can fairly easily outrun a stocker! I wonder for all the Northern people...how well the AWD does?
Used mine in 6-8 inches of snow.... No problem!!!

I definitely miss the 6 speed 5.0 w the 3.73 gears. Man this thing was fast! I do really miss the throaty growl but I dont miss struggling for traction all tje time. But I am really liking the SHO thus far. I'm in northern Illinois and can't wait to put it to the test this winter.
I too will probably keep it stock (performance wise that is) for quite awhile.
