New pics of my stang

So here I am posting up new pics of my stang again since the forum crashed and my previous post and pics was lost.

I've added Shelby 1/4 window covers, repainted my side mirrors black(used to be white), painted the fake gas cap indents black, got rid of the chrome fog rings, got rid of the chrome headlight housings w/halos and reinstalled the OEM ones. My next "to do" is tint the windows.

Cool "Thanks Again"

Wow! So liking your newest mods! Looking very smooth now!! Thanks again to you Bro for the great "Califorina Special" graphic that we put on our own GT/CS's trunk lid! Love it! People at the area car shows are still asking if that is a factory piece. Too sweet!! CalStang

Nice looking ride!

Any cooling problems or hood lift issues from the center mount fogs?

I think clear markers make the front end crisper and cleaner. Especially on a HP.

Looks good! I see you removed that little bit of the side strip on the front of the car, I've been thinking about that too.

As for the clear markers, it makes the front end just flow better, now if you mean the little red marker lights in the rear, those I don't mind as they seem to flow with my red calipers.

Thanks and you're welcome! That graphic definitely looks factory; like it belongs there. I like your picture with the sunset. Nice shot!

Thanks! I wasn't sure about removing the little strip in the front at first but I'm glad I did. That strip is so small and seems unnecessary. Don't know why Ford bothered putting it there. It really cleaned up the front of the stang once removed.

Very well done and tasteful mods I also agree that the removal of the very front part of the stripe looks better! Also, IMO the clear marker lights look good on the lighter colored cars (white, yellow, silver) and black, but I actually like how the red side and front amber flow with Vista Blue
