GTH064 Posted December 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 I've had issues with noise coming from the front passenger side suspension when I make sharp turns pulling out of the garage for months now. I went to my local Ford dealer after informing myself about current Ford Mustang issues in the same area but they blamed it on the fact that the suspension upgrade specifically the front sway was "too big". They made some tightening adjustments on several components but informed me that because it was a Shelby conversion and Shelby parts they could not cover them or take any further action. I'm still looking into it. As far as Shelby related parts go my only issue is that the GTS faux cap that came with the car has faded or oxidized badly and after finally getting through to the right person (Brian T), I was told I'd have to wait for a replacement because everything is still packaged from the move. I'll keep you posted! BTW, Did you notice that the GTS was not in the cover shot of the new magazine with the other "Shelbys" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Whoovie Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 My GTS badge has faded/oxidized also and I only got it on May 28th. With regards to the Shelby magazine, to be fair the Shelby 1000 wasn't on the cover either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTH064 Posted December 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 I was finally connected with Brian at Shelby Performance Parts after 2 weeks of being forwarded around the company and leaving several messages. He had me email a picture of the cap to him but advised me that all the GTS faux caps were still packaged due to the move. Very understandable, but he was unsure if it could be replaced free of charge. My car has 2100 miles, garage kept and car covered and has never seen rain, manufactural defect if you ask me!

tjys Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Mine faded within a 1000 miles of using the car. I just figured it some kinds of inexpensive plastic and decided not to pursue getting replacements after what happened on my GT4 wheel/tire order.

PatentMan Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 Thanks! I'm thinking of suggesting on http://www.teamshelby.com/forums/index.php/forum/198-requested-items-for-development/ at least special "team Shelby" Faux gas caps, emblems for the car's exterior.

Helix Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 I wouldn't mind seeing it. Its cool to see the potential drawn out of these new v6 Mustangs, and definitely something to be proud of and recognized for knowing. Definite support.
