I just saw this post for the first time, and I have to say I don't like the graphics at all. The spoiler is ok though.

I think the graphics are so '80's feeling; sort of reminds me of those hideous screaming chicken graphics on the old Trans Ams. FUGLY for sure. :notnice:

And that crappy looking stripe down the side of the car? Pitch it.

If you want to call it a Boss/Shinoda, go back to the Boss's roots. Simple stripes with understated identification. TINY "Boss" logos, thin stripes, and good looks; not that junk on the car in the pictures. UGH!

The '05 does not need that kind of cheesy junk on it. It just takes away from the beauty of the car.

Ugh! I think I just threw up a bit in my mouth.... yuck.
Ditto, and the wheel/tire combo blows too.

What a disgrace

TeamShinoda, I hope you guys are taking notes. This is what people expect of a new Boss. All I can say is this car = :worship:

One more (wish I had more). This guy actually disassembled his car, painted it Calypso Corral, and is installing a 5.0 Cammer (I think. Either that or a crate motor). The only other thing that would make this better is if he had Magnum 500 wheels on it.

Edit: Oh, and of course adding a shaker hood scoop would add to the

There's a difference between a Mustang Boss and a Mustang Shinoda Boss.

Maybe, but anything with the name "Boss" on it should look better than what we've been seeing. Just my 2 cents.

Shinoda and Ford Reach Agreement

For Immediate Release
May 25, 2005
Contact: Jim Klok at 850-492-6601

Shinoda Performance Vehicles (SPV) and Ford Motor Company have reached an agreement giving Karen D. Shinoda rights to use of the BOSS Shinoda trademark name. Details of the agreement are confidential. SPV is an independent company and is not affiliated or associated with Ford.

The BOSS Shinoda name is used by SPV on Ford Mustang aftermarket appearance and performance enhancements available in five different models of custom built BOSS Shinoda Mustang cars up to the awesome top of the line 600 hp "Stroker Edition." Individual components, such as graphics and spoilers, are also available. Details are at www.TeamShinoda.com.

The designs were originally penned by legendary car designer Larry Shinoda as aftermarket enhancements for the 1994 Mustang. Larry was Karen's father and designer of the '69 & '70 Ford Boss Mustangs and the Chevy Corvette Sting Ray, among others. Since Larry's passing in 1997 Karen, her husband Brian Flahive, and Jim Klok have kept the program going in his honor. That has required modifications to adapt to the changing Mustang body style. Luckily both Karen and Brian are designers and had worked with Larry for years on projects including the new BOSS Shinoda Mustang, Super Stallion Mustang, Firestone/Firehawk and NASCAR and Indy Car projects. Jim Klok worked with Larry on performance features and to coordinate production of the new BOSS Shinoda Mustang. Jim is SPV Program Manager for BOSS Shinoda cars.

BOSS Shinoda Mustangs are known for turning heads and for their exceptional style, performance and value especially when compared to other major Mustang aftermarket products. For more information visit www.TeamShinoda.com or call Jim Klok at Shinoda Performance Vehicles at 850-492-6601.

Probably not. Shinoda get's to use it also unless there is more than we are being told. I seriously doubt Ford would not keep access to it. There's money to be made here.

This is interesting. :scratch: I hope this doesn't officially mean Ford can't make a Boss special edition. Any input TeamShinoda?

:bang: How many times must we run through this? :bang:

Boss is trademarked by Ford and they have the rights to use it. Boss Shinoda is trademarked by teamshinoda and they can use that phrase. Never the two shall meet!
