Black Widow Mustang
"...tell me what you think."
Um... ok you asked.
While overall, it's a nice concept, and I like it pretty well, these are what I feel needs to happen to make it uber, given the theme, if that's what you were asking us to do with the "what you think" part of your post.
From the front: Smoke the lights, including the turn signals. Change the shiny grilles to black, lose the fogs, take off the huge grille emblem, put the hourglass emblem on the left lower portion of the grille (or directly centered, your choice) Put round fogs at the bottom corners of the facia (or maybe another facia to help this) or better yet, come up/make with integral fogs/turn signals where the turn signals are, and hook up to the current GT Fog harness (and those I'd buy for myself on my current 06 GT, btw, and get an all black, or possibly all chrome bars (like I got w/o fogs) grille.)
Left side: Lose the quarter window cover, put in the flush mount quarter window louvers, but tint them. Paint the gas cap to match. Fender badge delete, no holes. Painted mirror caps in black, or better yet, paint the entire mirror. And no text in the stripe, everyone knows what the hourglass means, yeah?
Wheels: Replace centers with black widow hourglass ones. That'd be keen.
Rear/right view: 'Southern Comfort' delete. Spider delete offa gas emblem, replace with the red hourglass, and use the original emblem for base. Smoke the taillights, and also add those star LED lamps inside the taillights, and make them sequentials. Ducktail, or better yet, nothing for the wing. If you're not gonna use single outlets, then use proper oval/rounded square outlets for the exhaust, not dual trumpets, it'll look cleaner, and probably sound better/louder.
And finally... all that work and the original antenna is still on it? How about getting a hidden antenna and fillin' that fender hole too? Or maybe... a powered one? That'd be cool... Heck, I'm gonna do that one for mine, if I can fit it. Ya don't see those a lot.
Tweakage: Instead of black grilles, go for a very subtle red tinting of the black. An "almost black" red. Ditto for the wheels and the gas cap emblem, and if possible, the smoke for the lights. You know that'd be sweet.
There ya go, that's what I think. Hope that's ok.

The way the grille and fogs bulge out- anyone else see it that way? Looks almost like someone squeezed the car like one of those stress relief thingys...
Black Widow theme - needs red stripes.

I'm not diggin it at all.
I agree with the other posters, too much of a mish-mash of parts.
Way too much going on in the front.
The rear looks good, but it's basically a roush rearend.
But I prefer a cleaner look so ymmv
That car is 100% ugly.
ugly fake scoops and ugly badges. Those gold Widow letter on the hood almost made me vomit.

It's not too bad. I would change the front grill for sure. Either smaller fogs/relocated or do away with them completely. The spider emblem is too big and definitely a red and black theme since its a "black widow"
Looks like a tru fiber SS hood to me also.

Thank you to everyone who has commented on these photos. I would like to find out in detail what's good and what's not so good. Please help me make this Black Widow Mustang a Mustang enthusiast want.
Thanks so much your input and your time, it is much appreciated.

Over the top
It is a bit over the top, looks more like it belongs on a TV show than driving around on the streets in the real world.
It kinda seems a bit Gothic, perhaps it would go good as the ride for a new main Vampire character in a Vampire TV show...
Too Much Bling for my taste.

I don't like the hood lettering at all. Use black mesh in grilles. Don't like the all badging just use an hourglass on the front grille and maybe use hourglass shaped blackouts on the inside set of taillights.
