Overall, not as bad as the horrendous chops they released, I think they could do a few minor changes and make the car look significantly better.

1. Ditch the fake scoop, it takes away from the look of the car.
2. Either get rid of the grille foglights or foglights in lower fascia. With both, it looks too busy.
3. Get rid of the scoop/duct ahead of the front wheels
4. Ditch the body-color grille.

The front bumper is extremely overdone and it looks like it is too far out on the front. They have to ditch the fake scoop on the hood, this is one of those things that I wish my 03 did not come with.

Not really my cup of tea, looks like one of those cars you would see in that Need for Speed Underground game.

The front bumper and air dam are straight out on an APC cataloque.

here we go again - can't afford it - so lets make fun of it
It's not a matter of being able to afford it or not, it just isn't worth the $$$$ over a stock Mustang. I haven't seen one kit that really adds anything to the factory lines. The wheels look ok and the painted mirrors are a nice touch, but the lines on the car don't flow well. The factory stock car has a clean look to it and these effects ruin it.

What I DO like:

The painted treatment on the lights and grill (I can do without the black over the gills though)

The painted matching mirrors

What I don't like:

everything else

That hood scoop is HUGE and looks totally tacked on. A cowl induction hood would make a world of difference.

Obviously, the Roush designers kept in mind some of the cues from their SN95 models. It is a gradual transition, but a disappointing design which lacks proportion. They should have paid a little closer attention to some of the renderings posted on this board and others which were a hit with the enthusiasts. Their final product looks totally riced out.

I wonder if STALKER designed it for them?

Real sorry Jack, but ....I don't like this car at all. The Steeda looks better, and I bet when Saleen puts theirs out it totally wizzes on this one.

They could've done better. It's butt ugly, and I'm not sure how they did that considering these cars are sexy as anything.

:notnice:

The red on the grill/head lights/driving lights really looks cheap. Looks like something I could have done in my driveway with a can of Krylon. They should have left it black. Now, those rear quarter louvers - DROOL.

That's awful.

If they'd put something tasteful up front, it'd be beautiful.

I think Manny, Moe, and Jack had some help designing this one. :R:
