I now have the Trufiber Gts 4 hood....

If you look at the hood close enough you will notice the two tone ghost paint.
Looks great! Also looks $$$!

That looks great under there! Wade what kind of strut tower brave is that? And do you know if it will fit under a stock hood? That's the kinda look I wanted for mine

It's the 2012 stock Boss 302 strut brace. I don't think it will clear the stock 05-09 stock hoods.

At a mustang cruise in tonight. I got a quote on painting the CDC aggressive today. They said I would have to fit it myself first and put it on after... I was kind of hoping they would do it so that if it didn't fit perfect I could make them take it back and refit it, but I guess they had me figured out. So we'll see. Should have it on within the end of the month... I hope

I think after that will be lowering and I'll be done. Except I've also been thinking about the roush side skirts. Idk it never ends in my mind haha

I bought the covers off of American Muscle. They render the fog lights useless unless you get a set of HID's. I have not done so as of yet.

I'm trying to figure out what to do to mine. Now that I have the Shelby grille I'm going to hide them behind it. Since I don't want two big lights staring through the grille I want to black them out. I don't know whether I should do the spray on tint or if am offers some kind of film. I had the covers for my tail lights on my last car and they worked great, but I don't want to add any thickness to the fogs and take a chance of them not fitting back there. That and them not working through the covers without a different bulb.

Any suggestions?

I had all my tail lights professionally tinted by a painter that used tinted clear coat, you could go that route. I cost me about $200 to do the rear tail, 3rd tail, and two side reflectors. They look SICK! I'm sure you can get them done for pretty cheap too. I got mine done by a friend who owns a detail company when he detailed it too.

Ehhh. Haha for something that's going to be hidden... The spray on is sounding pretty good. Anyone have any experience with it?

And thanks for the advice on the painting! It sounds like it turned out really cool
