hmmm, I guess they are just a little too bling for me. Kinda reminds me of chrome mirrors you see on trucks. No worries though, you do whatever you think looks good. That is what I do I do have a question though. Is it just me or do your hood pins seem to be really far from the front of the hood.

Nice job SCMustang! Welcome to the V6 Mustang Club!! At only 18, I can see you are developing into a really talented young man! I am more than twice your age, and let me tell ya, when I drive my car, I don't feel a day over 18.. Sometimes when the turbo is spooled and shoving boost into the intake, I actually may feel slightly younger.. Actually, I think the more boost pressure you run into the bone stock factory engine, the younger you feel.. I wonder what 10 years old feels like? Perhaps thats roughly 14psi of boost on race gas! LOL!

The S197 V6 Mustang is an astonishing performer..

Good Luck!

Cool .... are those hood pins functional? Looks like there would be nothing beneath them to attach a pin too ...

I like it. I would have preferred the MUSTANG lettering out front if I was to do it. My problem is I would not be able to get the letters straight. Hell I can't even draw a straight line. Mirrors lot awesome.

That's a great mod for these blue cars, but do get some leds or silver bulbs off of ebay. The lights will make that look even better
