Would anyone happen to know what wheels those are? I wouldn't mind a set for a fox (if they would fit)

Quoted post

18x9 cobra-clone wheels in bright white were modified to fit the '05 chassis. 285/35-18 Nitto Extreme Drags in the back and 265/35-18 Nitto NT555's up front.

Just noticed that they did something to make the rear tail light look more narrow like the old Fords... Always worth looking at the detail... Any idea how they did it?

Electrical tape?

I don't know, but those manufacturers who make those chrome and flat black inserts for between the lights should make one that makes the separation between the lights thicker, like this car. I'd buy it.

I responded to (3) comments/questions directed at/to me. I think I am aloud to do that...
are you looking for the chrome tailight bezels, or a way to make them thicker?

The political tangent was basically dead though. Yeah, you're allowed, but now you risk someone responding to you and back and forth, etc... There were some on topic comments that I'd like to see addressed. Mine in particular.

I've seen the chrome ones and the thin black ones. Looking at what's available to make them thicker (so the lights look thinner). If you know the guys at the mag, even if you dislike aspects of the car, maybe they can dig some info out of the guy.

Rice or not rice - it looks like everyone has made their point. Perhaps this thread just needs to be shut down...

I wouldn't change a thing! I guess you can tell that I'm a closet admirer of the Mustang II Cobra...

Man, look at all the cleaning up I have to do in this thread. Next time a few of you need to use the PM feature for your hissy fits. Stick to the topic and there is no place for politics in a forum.

That is one of my favorite '05's to date. Why care if he used Cobra badges on his car? I think, and as stated in his article, he did an excellent job in creating in a car that mimcs "great vintage Cobra II styling". I too look forward to seeing it in MM&FF.

This would top that POS. This is only done via photoshop because ricing a Mustang is a felony and i'd have to execute myself. (My son did this.)
