only reason im considering it is the flat black stripes

nice, i have to look into that clear bra, i might want that

The car has a paisan nose (I'm Italian too!) so it needs something to protect the big thing! Best thing I ever did with my 08!

Front grill for sure, but it must be black and low profile. No rice.

Similar to the 2011/12's

I would not put a grill on mine, I would just clean out the dead bugs and insects once a week! I like the clear look plus direct air flow-it serves a purpose.

The first mod I would get would be Mickey Thompson ET Drag Radials or equal for traction purposes. :rockon:

There actually needs to be a front grill. I dont know why they kept it open like that. Bad things can happen to the A/C condensor and other things. I dont think it looks bad though.


Right on :eek:

I like the open grill but looking at the amount of debris that is on my 2011's cooling fins already has me a bit apprehensive about a wide-open front intake. A good-sized rock going in there at speed is gonna create some havoc :cryying:

Any bets on how soon before the aftermarket makes a removable grill? I understand the need for the open grill, for increased cooling air flow under hard use, but for tooling around town I think I might want a "screen door". It would be quite disconcerting to put a rock/songbird/coyote into the radiator/condensor....

Stop worrying, you say? This critter was hit at 75 mph on a Utah highway at night and the driver kept going, assuming the coyote was dead in the road. Well, Wiley went through the grill and survived for an 8-hour, 600 mile ride (including two stops for gas) before daylight revealed to the car passengers that there was some fur behind the grille.... The coyote made a full recovery:coolman:

At the cruisins i have seen 50s cars with screen over the radiators i wonder if that could work for keeping the bugs out of the radiator

decide on that rear black gloss panel, im still up in the air about it

Know if generally there is much carbon fiber out there interior and exterior for previous model years, which would probably point toward a likelihood that similar stuff will be plentiful for the '13? I think the hood vent would look better in cf.

go to a hardware store get some screen for a screen door put it in front of your radiator when it gets dirty clean or replace that will always keep radiator clean and dent free i have done this to all of my cars over the years and my radiators are clean and bug free

In my Opinion the Big Mouth mod looks AWESOME. But given the fact that if someday I own a '13 would be black on black, it wouldn't matter.

My exterior mods:

1) Ordering the car Black with white stripes. This way I got the white stripes (and cobra) on the Recaros (which I think it looks BADASS). Later, removing the stock stripes in favor of Matte Black racing stripes.

2) Tint

3) Different wheels

4) "Gotta Have it Green" racing stripes (seasonal mod, the main theme would be black on black).

Its all matter of opinion brother...whatever makes your car stand out...i might get it wrapped first and see if i dont like it, rip it off! :shrug:

I like the idea of painting the rear gloss panel, just doesn't flow. I stopped by the ford dealership and saw a GT, i think its just removable if you want

Well I will not be giving up Roxy, but I would probably do what I did to her, minus a few things like the DS and probably cat back... On the Tints I would do the 50% front windshield. Makes a difference here in S.FL

yeah yeah :) But heh, use to be in the industry that enforces that...In all honesty, if you do not get crazy with it, the cops will not mess with you unless they are on a mission. 50% is very light.

For sure ! I usually head up on Weds test n tunes. Just let me know ! :beer:
