Car looks great man. You've really done a nice job getting 'the look'. Well put together

Side note: If anyone likes his headlight splitters, I've got the exact ones for sale. $100 PM me for pics or more info.

Any reason why you didn't go with an actual shaker kit? Nice looking ride, but I can't stand fake scoops.

the front spoiler is from Boss Shinoda, the reason I did not go with a shaker hood scoop is I have a deatailed intake and fuel rail covers from mid west auto gear. Next thing is to buy the magnum 500 wheels if I could find them

I can't speak for 05Boss, but IMO I felt more justified spending $700 for a CAI and Tune than a Shaker.

Nice looking ride man!

Jesh people. No, it's not a 302. It's a freaking tribute car, it's a nice one too, and further - it's 05boss's tribute car and putting a 302 on it is NOT that big of a deal. It's no like putting GT emblems on a v6, Ford isn't putting a 302 in an S197 so it's no big deal. Quit asking stupid questions.

thanks 05GT-O.C.D.<SCRIPT type=text/javascript> vbmenu_register("postmenu_1057508", true); </SCRIPT> I tried to make the car on how it would come from Ford if they had a boss 302 edition

I think the car looks nice, but I agree that putting "302" on the car is very much like putting GT emblems on a 6 cyl. Most people don't know that it is not a 302. But if he enjoys it, more powa!!!

Yeah, I'm with O.C.D. on this one. It's a tribute car to the Boss 302. So our rides have 21 Cubes less, it is, in my opinion, a BOSS motor. The current N/A generates more HP than the stock Boss 302 so where is the problem? It's not like he is putting a Cobra emblem on it and calling it a Shelby, which I see often. I suppose that those of us who desire to make "tribute" cars are more sensitive but we just appreciate the past grandeur of the old era and this is the first generation that actually allows mustang owner to "look" like an evolved ride from that era...

Obivously, I am biased to tribute cars but I appreciate all fellow Mustangers that take the time, money, and effort to modify their rides in whatever direction they choose.
