What kind of name is "rjuice"!!!! Whatever dude!! I mean what, do you think that just because you drive a badhiney orange vert and a 05 gt that gives you the right to have such a cool name like "rjuice"! Well if I was only as cool as you are buddy. Anyways, let me know about the wheels. It would be my pleasure to hook up some dude that has a name like "rjuice"!

Peace

I'd have to see the complete model, not a photochop. So far I am not loving it that much.

Nice find! Following one of their links it appears they offer the Stang in colors close to the grabber ones.

Will be interested in hearing more about this company in the future.
Did somebody say GRABBER?!?




That is one beautiful color, and those rims kick some major ****!

but that tail has to go!

So, um, how come they are saying "The New 2005 Ronaele is here" when all they have is photochop versions of Cervini's body kit and Halibrand wheels?

Anyone know how they are getting their hp numbers?

On a different note, the body kit does not look that much like the original Eleanor, except maybe the scoops -- not that I am complaining, but why call it Eleanor then, even backwards?

Don't confuse Cervini's and Ronaele to be the same company or even working together. Ronaele is doing their own thing.

BTW, they are based off the same car, it's not going to differ very much.

Are you serious?

Similarities:
Front bumper = same
fog lights = same
side scoops = same
c-pillar scoop = same
wheels = same
hood = same
front badge and placement = same

Differences:
headlights = stock on Ronaele, '69 style on Cervini
rockers = skirts (Ronaele), side pipes (very unlikely) (Cervini)
chop = different angle
spoiler = undecided as Ronaele chop is not realistically able to be produced

I am just tired of companies trying to sell cars they haven't made yet -- especially when they either directly use, or completely rip off someone else's designs, yet try to pawn it off as their own work and slap an absurd price tag on it. That is a big :nono: for me.

As to the "based on the same car, so not going to differ much" thing, I would strongly disagree. Look at the Steeda, Street Scene and especially the Saleen. All very different, yet all off the same car. It is all in the details, and those details can make a huge difference.

The hoods don't look similar IMO. Though I agree on a few other things.

No, you misunderstood, I was saying there is only one way to do Eleanor (on first gen.'s), so all of these '05 kits are going for the same looks.

No problem guys. If some of you guys are interested I might can get a deal on those wheels. I would need around 3-4 sets for the buy-in. I would just pass the savings on to you guys just to get me the distributorship (if people are interested, I would have to do some researching). So in other words you could get them at cost. Let me know. I really wish someone would hurry up and make the body kit (a good body kit)!
I am interested in purchasing a set of those wheels. Please keep me updated. Thanks.

Not sure of size and offset, but those are Halibrands and available now:
http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/s...an&mf=Halibrand

(again, not sure if they come in the correct offset).

Sorry but the wheels they are advertising are not the (cheap) Halibrand wheels in that link. The wheels they have are produced by Team III. Also, if anyone wants a crappy, ugly, horrible looking set of wheels, then buy those Halibrands in that link. I know first hand. I ordered a set a year ago and when they came in they didn't even look like the add in the magazine. They looked about as good as some hubcaps from K-Mart. I sent that crap back and advised the company to update their photos of the wheels. IMO!!!
