First off please don't drill into that bumper.

http://ccmustangbrackets.com/product/2015-mustang-bracket/

Second why are you going with the 1-7/8 LT's? It doesn't seem like you are going FI so the 1-3/4 is probably better for you.

Other than that great choice, same color and nearly the same options from the factory as me. I'm using Steeda's springs and front and rear sway bars and they work great btw.

Also I would probably add MGW's shifter to that list of upcoming mods as well, that thing is amazing.

I have a different bracket already. Just haven't had time to put it on yet.
It bolts to the bottom, underneath of the front splitter.

I wanted the 1-7/8's because i don't know what my overall plans are yet.
Id like to do a supercharger at some point. I'd just like to hold onto warranty a little longer.

Shifter will be added. Forgot that in the list! Thank you!

Thanks! I already love it!

Possibly, we have an oxford white 2015 mustang and a kona blue 2014 Shelby plus our race cars that we take to Road America quite often. Here is our shop and cars. http://www.fulltiltboogieracing.com/shop_tour.htm

I may have depending on how often they are driven around. Im not up to Road America often but plan to be a lot more often.

I love the DIB too. This is my first "non economy daily" for a car so i will probably choose another color for another car. Going from one car to another and keeping the same color makes it seem not worth it to me. Next car will be a daily and will be white or black.

Got the Steeda Rear Subframe Braces installed!
50% less wheel hop with TC off and launching the car.
75% less wheel hop with TC on.
Feels more planted on the ground through cornering as well as in normal daily driving.
Seems like the driver inputs are more direct and you don't have to saw at the wheel to go the direction you'd like.

Not a huge update.
Getting catback in two weeks.
Intake will go on at the same time.
Purchasing nGauge tuner and Lund Racing tune.
Fall, once the cars in storage, Kooks Catless long tubes will go on.

Here some more pics...

How are those Steeda sub frame braces holding up? Are you still happy with the purchase? Thinking of picking up a set as an easy, quick mod

I love them! They don't effect daily drivability but when you get on it, you instantly know there's help there.
Plus for the price, you can't pass it up.
