Episode Notes
Our grabber orange 2008 Ford Mustang GT makes its first appearance on the show, and soon after this episode was filmed, it was rushed off to the 2009 SEMA Show in Las Vegas!
This episode is unlike previous episodes which have the additional PARTZ or LETTERZ segments. That is because there was so much to show, we didn’t want to skimp on the details just to put in additional content. Future episodes may or may not have additional segments, depending on how much time we have. The next episode, S03E02 for example, has Partz, Letterz, and the introduction of a new segment called Ridez!
Thanks to AmericanMuslce.com for supplying all of the accessories featured in this episode. Mention the “MOTORZ10″ discount code on your next purchase to save 10%!

Nice long vid!!

Thanks! Starting with this season, it's a half hour show on television so that's made episodes about twice the duration as usual. Some will be broken up into multiple parts, but I couldn't do it with this one. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the show with a cold one!

Nice job Chris. Makes me want to trade in my 'Stang for a grabber orange one!

February 25th, 2010 at 9:23 am
You didn't show the halos lit up
February 25th, 2010 at 9:23 am
We forgot to shoot some nighttime video of the halos. I'll try to get a photo so we can add it to the episode notes at the MOTORZ website. BTW, thanks for subscribing!

sorry but i dont like the engine bay i like the decal on the side that looks sweet
February 25th, 2010 at 9:25 am
So simple but it makes a huge diference to the looks. I love the Orange and Chrome :)
February 25th, 2010 at 9:26 am
grabbed orange ehh, i feel like its more of a clear coated caterpillar yellow…..
February 25th, 2010 at 9:26 am
too much orange in the engine bay, the engine cover should have been detailed with some black accents to stand out a bit. How do the lights look?
February 25th, 2010 at 9:26 am
and what does all this crap do except for looking flimsy?
February 25th, 2010 at 9:27 am
wow i was expecting more engine work, maybe a better sound system an some other color than orange. theres no big contrast
February 25th, 2010 at 9:27 am
Why didn't you show what the headlight look like when they are on? I was really looking forward to that, does it change the style or beam?
February 25th, 2010 at 9:27 am
We will try to get some pics of them lit up at the site soon!
February 25th, 2010 at 9:24 am
Thanks for the feedback!!
February 25th, 2010 at 9:24 am
5/5 I always enjoy it when you do work on muscle cars.
February 25th, 2010 at 9:24 am
Thanks a bunch–I like working on pretty much anything… it's constantly a learning experience for me which is fun.

Nice to see the different Mustang. I have an 07 Grabber Orange Mustang GT. Makes me consider a few of the parts. :)

Nice video man. I really appreciate it when you do these makeover on cars. Helps me think what I can do to the brakes and the appearance on my car. Keep up the good work!
