eh my personal preference, "tribute" or not, 302 shouldnt be on the side of a car. I dont know if i am being snotty since my family has a 69 B-302, but i dont know seems kinda odd to me.

werd.

i dont feel its snotty, just that my dads is such a rare and beautiful car i feel a lot like people that try to replicate a shelby or a cobra. just doesnt sit right. to each his own though i am not going to specifically bash it. I'll put 302 on the side of my 07 eventually, but i am dropping a stroker engine in it first.

you know you should thank me for doing my car like a boss 302 because the original boss 302 does not get the same respect as a shelby and they should.

I know Wheel Vintiques makes them but they are pricey. Somewhere in the last week or so I saw another brand that was $500 or so for a set of 4 wheels. I'll see if I can find the ad.

Found it: December issue of Modified Mustangs, ad on page 33. CJ Ponyparts of all places. Set of 4 18x9 "slug" Magnum 500 wheels for $549.95. Looks like part number W263. Heck of a deal if the quality is ok.

Excellent job on the Boss. Don't worry about the hatin'. The whole idea behind the car is to make it what you want. You paid for it.

Personally, I really like the hood scoop. At first look I actually thought it was a shaker! Awesome car
