Let me guess the "SR" stands for "Should-a Reconsidered" entering this in SEMA.

I don't understand it when these companies make the front bumper go "forward" like this. (Roush is like that too)

As already mentioned, pretty ridiculous to use those eBay projector headlights on their car. (they couldn't custom make something after all of this time?)

Really, the only thing I like on this car is the paint and the upper quarter panel (looks like they did a good job on removing the window).

I think this is how a mustang should look

Best looking mustang ever IMO

Stang281 the front bumper goes forward because it helps in something called downforce

To be honest, that fascia doesnt look like its all that aerodynamic. Besides, how much downforce is needed or even USEABLE on a street car?

Steeda's is just a splitter and doesn't go forward, and i'm sure they actually do wind tunnel testing.

I'm sure Bash Performance did wind tunnel testing on this to see if it actually added downforce.

Like you would need some extra downforce on a daily driven car. (I wouldn't sacrifice horrible looks for extra downforce for a street car anyway, this isn't the autobahn)

My problem is you can buy those lights on ebay for about 1/2 what bash wants to sell them for. http://bashperformance.com/cart/prod...code=GTSR750HL

I don't mind the look of the car. It's the absurd prices they are asking for the parts.

Some of the new body kits are overkill.Like the front bumper cover.You would have to live in a town where potholes don't exist.The rear spoiler would be useless unless it had rudder control if you lived in the "Windy city". The only positive(sort of ) is converting some the import guys over to the domestic tuner (politically correct) crowd. Its nice to have all the new options for modding but I wish Ford would sell the Man Racer hood to the public. Ogre.

Hey! Bash Performance just chimed in.. let's ask him..

Brett, what happened with the side exhaust? also, why did you guys buy your headlamps from ebay, and the front bumper doesn't even match the headlamp bucket outline! those are some basic things that should've not happened when putting this car together.

I really like the fenders, and the hood (looks a whole lot like the Cali Dream, but that's what I have in my car, so I'm a little bias), but that wing it's seriously ridiculously looking, and the front bumper lines need to follow either the cobra lights, or the GT lights, not something in between!

Love the quarter panel window delete, very nice touch on that...
