Freshly lowered, clear markers and Agent 47 mirrors. Exterior finally done.

After many years of having this car and flirting with the idea of selling it for a new 2013 this year. I finally pulled the trigger on the few lingering exterior mods I always wanted to do. Lowered the car with Steeda ultralites, Tokico D-Specs, panhard bar, and camber bolts. Through on some Agent 47 mirrors, and got rid of those horrible orange lights in the front. Let me know what you guys think of the finished product.

Hey thanks a lot SilverSkoundrel. I actually got the idea of coloring the bottom half of the tail lights from you. I was lucky I checked the site a few days before I took my car in and I saw what you did with plastidip. I has them spray the lights instead an did in between the lights also. I think it turned out really well, thanks a lot for the idea.

You are looking good there keeping your older model and showing it off in it's best! I would have been happy to keep my 08 model if I did not need to sell it to get it off the credit report so I could buy my house. You have to think of it this way. Some people cherish the early Mustangs 65-66 and do not feel they have to have the newer models just because they are newer. Each generation Mustang has a signature of it's own.

I like the way you blacked out your front end. It reminds me of 70-71 Torinos with the hideaway headlamps that used the full-width grilles.

No they didn't tint it they taped them off and painted them. Oh and imitation is the sincerest form of flattery I guess.

Thanks my man. You are completely right about each Mustang having its very own signature. I think that is what makes them so great.

No the paint is not completely blacked out. It's weird not exactly sure how they painted it. It is still somewhat transparent.
