Some new mods so I took some pics

I installed my shaker about a month ago and added the Astra Hammon rear window louvers...

Weird, these pics look photoshopped into the setting. Clean looking car. Shaker looks great. It's just my opinion so no offense, but I hate rear louvers. Reminds me of an old trans am.

No offense taken. That's your opinion and you're entitled to it. I like the retro look the louvers give.
The pictures were enhanced and edited in Photoshop Lightroom.

Photoshop and Photoshop Lightroom are two different programs. I use different enhancement tools in Photoshop Lightroom depending on what the original photo looks like.

Ohh gotcha. Okay. You gonna toss on some new chrome shoes someday? Would really make ur car stick out with some razors. But I guess if u are going w retro u prob dont want aftermarket wheels.

Stripes look great also. Painted on or is that from the program?

Eventually get some new shoes when the original tires wear out. Haven't really settled on anything specific yet.
The stripes are vinyl. Came from the dealer that way.

Looks good! I like how the width of the 'slats' on the side louvres pretty much match the rear louvre.

I love how low profile those rear louvers are. Most of the louvers for the back window make the car look hunch backed because they stick out too far and have too much curve to them, yours are by the fast the best looking ones I've ever seen on a modern stang

Thanks everyone for the comments!

The chin spoiler was very easy to install. Took about 15 to 20 minutes.

You know... I've never really noticed that before. You're right tho... it does look pretty cool!

I bought mine off eBay... $549.00 with free shipping. Still a little pricey but alot better than $800.00 bucks.
