That should really set my GT500 apart from the other 2 silver 2011 GT500's in my state and give me the look I've always wanted since before I owned the car. At least it looks better then the optional $2k unpainted SS ground effects that was going to be a must have back when I was researching Camaro's last year before I bought my GT500.

Silver isn't that bad either. I do agree they should paint the lower fascia and then they would have something. I know why they didn't but it didn't really work for a lot of people.

One thing to remember though, in the GT500 you can get luxury and performance. Not so much in the Boss. If you didn't know they striped the car of all things thats not performance related and don't even offer any option for that stuff. So while you can have a beast on the track you would be stuck with the interior of a base mustang with no option to upgrade unless you went and did that aftermarket.

My 2011 looks the same and I didn't have to lower it because I ordered mine with the SVT performance Pack that lowers it and makes it look a lot better then the non PP models which requires a lower ride height in order to achieve a good look like the car in the pic. If the car in the pic was a PP model he could of left it stock and had the same look. As for tires just about every SVT owner in history changes them because they cant hook and are too narrow. I don't like posting my rear pic because I don't want my personal plate plastered all over the internet plus I haven't gotten around to taking a profession style photo like the one above. All I have is driveway shots but it still looks cool because of the ride height and big meats.

Race Red looks just as nice and is 100x easier to keep clean. Just change your sig pic to something that you can be proud of inspires others. I just had a member on svtp post that my sig pic inspired him to buy a GT500 and he's not the first.

I hate to say it but the styling of the GT500 is better than the ZL1 IMO. Still like the Z better though.

Good luck even finding a Boss. I can't get one in Grand Rapids as they are all sold. Only 4500 are being made for the street in 2011.
