        It is good to here both sides of mod vs. no mod with our birds as well...

        I myself like mods and have always tried to make any of my cars unique even if it was just a personal license plate...

        Still waiting on Bling Bird, the king of mods to list his mods, but not sure if it is possible all on one post, may exceed maximum words for a post. He may need a few...lol

        Dot, I like your pole mod, it is right up there with my mountain mod for Aprils TOTM...

          Re: Mod vs. No Mod pole

          Let's see if I can remember:
          • T-bird logo valve stem and license plate screw covers
          • T-bird logo high performance trunk mat and matching floor mats.
          • Borla's with a free Borla cap that stays in the Bird - trashed the old exhaust
          • Tru-Rev CAI
          • Polished aluminum cold air intake tube - trashed the original
          • Bunny's famous T-bird logo visor and headrest covers
          • Bunny's famous T-bird logo boot 'makeover'.
          • Bunny's famous satin T-Bird jackets for the whole family with patches added for both TBN and ITC.
          • Gary Kimmel hard tonneau covers.
          • TBN Grill Badge
          • ITC window decal
          • Mid Atlantic Chapter TBN window decal
          • iSimple MP3 adapter
          • TBC stainless steel roof protection trim
          • T-bird Cap with assorted hat pins (it's more like the Kaiser's helmet now)

          edit - I knew I would forget something - added a HomeLink system, trashed the original cowl.

                        Re: Mod vs. No Mod pole

                        I've been avoiding this, I'm somewhat of a slacker and I'm trying to keep it simple. here's the list:

                        Chrome tail lights
                        Luggage Rack
                        Back Up Sensors (can't live without them)
                        T-Bird valve caps
                        SS trim for the hard top
                        Power outlet in the armrest (I hate to see wires, keeps the phone hidden)
                        New head unit (CD/Ipod/Bluetooth/Sirius - I'm retro, not neanderthal)
                        USB/Audio Aux plug in glovebox (see note about wires)
                        Chrome hood scoop

                        No future plans. I'm a happy Birder.

                          We probably should add folks on this site for a source of mods. I see a K&N CAI on sale by a member now. I've bought stuff from the folks here, besides BunnyLou, and have always been treated well.
