I nearly wet myself when I saw those wheels. Very nicely done. You have excellent tastes.

Are you going for a full black motif?

If so, I know where you can find some smoked taillight covers for the 05!

Since you site is all shiny and new, I understand you'll need some time to break it in, but when you have a chance you should do some write-ups about your mods and your personal impressions on them.

I'd be interested in hearing them!

And once again, congratulations, that is one nice looking GT!

I had one more thing I thought you'd might be interested in.
This is more just a personal impression, but I'm not a big fan of that big honken GT badge on the tail end.

Maybe on Mustang version 1.2 you could look into getting that bad boy shaved off?
Not that you have to, but it'd sure clean up the tail end. Heck I even went through Photoshop to do a little airbrushing to give you an idea of what I'm talking about.

I also just noticed someone posted a nice link to add 'Trunk Release Button' http://forums.bradbarnett.net/index.php?showtopic=23116 which would tie into this mod very well.

Just my 2 cents anyway!

The exhaust kicks all forms of audible ****. No drone and subtle at idle. From the inside you know its there, from the outside people stop and stare.

That's sweet!

Now you've got the 2nd best car on this site.

And the gaps on your ducktail look perfect to me!



oops, I ment to make our pics the same size, side-by-side. I need to go back to computer class... maybe a mod could help?

Very nice ride - I like the ducktail. Well actually the entire car is very tastefully done. Congratz.

Do you have any pictures of the smoked tail light covers? The GT badge at the rear doesn't bother me at this point. Maybe in the future. Version 1.2 will be stereo modifications.
