I HATE all that excess plastic!!!

The rest of the car looks pretty darn sweet, however.

It is SC'ed it has a fully built motor. The side covers hide all the nasty stuff that Ford has.

That plastic is horrible. Nothing like taking your time cleaning the bay and rerouting wiring to make it beautiful.
They took the lazy route.
Overall it aint that bad, but not that great either.

Not crazy about the plastic either a little crome wouldn't hurt and the grill sort of reminds me of Caddliac .I do like the hood treatment of vents on top but the electrical tape left on the top of the shroud should have been removed before the show .
Nothing like a patch up charlie job and leave the tape behind

you say it is super charged, where is it, not in the pics. I dont see it anywhere, maybe its set up under the plastic, I guess, not really understanding that tho, supercharger is usually up top up front. So not sure how there fitting it down lower. Same intake and everything, certainly doesnt look supercharged to me. But oh well.

The intake manifold is different from stock, but I can not see the blower under all that plastic. I would like to see it first hand.

It's surely supercharged... you can see twin gauge pod atop the dash that displays supercharger boost pressure and air temperature in the first photo.
