Flames look cool... change those tail lights!

 

whats wrong with my tail lights?

 

Well, they're known in the Mustang circle as "ricer" lights.

But, if it's what you like than more power to ya. I just don't like 'em either. But, I don't like flame throwers or airbag suspensions on Mustangs so, it doesn't really matter. As long as it's what gets your motor running, then have at it man.

 

well, if i had to drive something with flames on it i'd be embarrassed... but just to see a car have an 8ft flame comming out of it's tail pipe looks pretty cool... i've actually never seen it in person.

 

well i supose its everyone to there own you guys have got to remember i have to ship everything over here from the states so parts are a real pain to get and i dont get the chance to see stuff in real life only on online cateloge. i know the whole american muscle ricer thing can be a sensative subject but i like anycar done well and well all we have at shows over here is ricers anyway, i decided that the car was going to be all show and not much go as to be honest the money it would cost to get my motor to any decent power level was going to be rediculous so if i win the lottery then maybe ill shoehorn a big block in there but even if i did ive no where to run there are no drag strips over here

 

No problem man. Like I said, if it's what ya like, then have at it. You just asked what was wrong with the taillights and I was just trying to explain the mindset here about them. That's all. Not knocking you brother. Continue doing what your doing. Sounds like your having fun.

 

All you'd really need for some power is a nice s/c and a good sounding exhaust... which also helps the hsow aspect b/c you can rev your engine and it'll be meaner than all the 4 bangers around... depending on the s/c you'd be spending about 5k on those 2 things if you get a pro. install, if you do it yourself, maybe 4k. You could get an ebay s/c for about 2-3k right now, and at certain webspace (actually reputible webspace at that) sell nice cat-backs for $450-$600. I'll be getting a borla eventually for around $540 with free shipping...

 

regards the s/c try adding another 2000 for that due to import duty its a real pain regards the exhaust already running a custom system with no cats
flashbag dont get me wrong i wasnt offended by your opinion we are all entitled to that i was just trying to let you know where i was coming from i wish i could see other mustangs in the flesh and chat to owners face to face to discuss mods but unfortunately there is only one other that i know of in a 200 mile radius

 

I understand man. Good luck over there across the big pond!!

 

I like your ideas and originallity, if i were you i'd tune that exhaust outside of the garage, lol. I don't like the taillights either, i'd of gotten some 96 lights, tinted them and had the trim on them painted black, but as everyone else has said, to each his own. i like the tubbing thing, that will look sweet!

 

dont worry im not firing the flames up until im at least oh 4 miles from anything thanks for the compliments looks like no one likes my taillights oh well

 

Flames look cool!

 

well i knowim gonna get flack for this but ive installed the air tank, compressor, manifolds, and the wiring loom for the ecu front air bags are in and im half way through the rear im a couple of fittings short but hopefully by the end of the week she should be back on the road the instal for the air has been relatively easy

 

What does all that stuff do? new air bags incase you hit something?

 

its all for a computer controlled airbag suspension kit

 

well the falmes looks good man, but watch out it doesnt melt ur bumper!!

 

Dude those flames are sweet, hopefully you get both sides working.

Try not to burn the house or the Mustang down.....those flames still look awesome those. When you then both flames working send a pic, to 5.0 and MMFF magazines. They might print that since flames are pretty rare on late model Mustangs, and you're representing overseas.
