Brian - I'm with Jed on this one. Try the bullitt grille first. That might just do the trick. That's an easy photoshop.

As you can see by my best time I only missed a 7.6 by 5 thousandths of a second. Below are some vid's I took. Enjoy.







Timeslip from my best run. (The reaction time is slow because I shallow stage.)


Leo, my 11.7 run was a 7.6 1/8 mile ET at 94.5 mph..... So we have comparable ETs but I got a couple MPH on you, so that means that you're leaving and shifting better than me (there's your auto trans to manual trans comparison)........ Great times man, congrats!

I think 2 and 4 would give you that more blacked out look. #1 is a sweet design.

I'll try those stealth bulbs on the Mazda since it already has clear corners. If I like them, the Mustang will follow.

I'm voting for 2 or 4, although 3 can work.

Mark.


Jed- I'm partial to option 2. One word of advice save your money and just go buy some amber bulbs at home depot. Since option 2 has no reflectors it won't have that egg yolk look. Plus the coating on the stealth bulbs will make the turn signal blinker to dim. Since option 2 has no reflectors your depending on the strength of the bulb itself. I might bring my stang down for the long weekend so if your not in a hurry you can wait and see what my setup up looks like before you make your final choice.

Brian, Luis- Looking at the calendar this morning looks like Barona two weeks from now is a no go. Reason being it's the same day as the 281 show/cruise. Were all still doing that right?
