VegasJay and Burke are the black beauties, for sure.

Justin, I can't wait to see the chin spoiler on your car... that's really gonna tie it all together and make Natasha look even more like the bad momma she is. I assume you're going to paint and stripe the chin spoiler, right?

Pondering it...

Don't do it... I love the stance your car has. Makes it look more retro like the original Shelby's. I went back and forth a lot on dropping mine. But just decided to drop the back 3/4" to level it out and leave it at that. Your stance looks mean right now... lower it and the stance is going to look more like a race car or tuner car than a muscle car. Just my 2 cents.

 

Yah, Im going to run the stripes down the chin spoiler.

That's the conclusion I keep coming to...I study pic's of the original Shelby's all the time and that's the look I'm going for. I may at some point upgade the spring's and shock's but maintain the same hieght and stance it has now. Thank's for the input.

 

Man, I go away for a day and a half and look what I almost missed.

Jay, that is one amazing car. The new wheels look awesome. Great job.

 

What offset is that? Looks great BTW Jay

 

I think it looks good..
My only gripe is that its not staggered, it doesnt look right with the deep dish on all four corners. I hope they start selling it so that the front doesnt have a huge lip like the rear.

 

Vegas Jay,

i complimented your car before in this thread. but i have to again. your RK sport hood is off the hook.

it seems like your hood vents stick out a little bit much. do you think blackening them out might help? just a suggestion.

your black out treatments of all lights is superb. i love it! and i love your antennae delete too.

in great part, you and adrenaline influenced my color choice. i was torn between sonic blue and black. alas, i chose sonic blue. but everytime i see a tight black ride as yours, i wish mine was black too.

your ride is sweet, dude. thx for sharing.

oh, btw. i know adrenaline painted his windshield washer nozzles white to match his stripes. i did the same but in the end chose to leave my nozzles competely off. my stripes came with nozzle holes pre-cut. ack. i have patches over my washer nozzle holes in my stripes but i like it better than nozzles there.

 

The Offset is 36mm.

I'm sure the will have the staggered set's avalible soon...They already have the wheel's like mine in 18 x 9 and 18 x 10 set's... :bang: That would have been better with the 285's.

Thank's again Harrier. I kicked around what to do with the scoop screen's for quite a while...I was worried that if I painted them black as well I would "loose" the line's of the scoop's. I may at some point paint them black, after some of them I've seen here.

That's a good idea on the washer nozzel's(painting them white). I like having them as you never know if you might need them, but they would look better white.

I think Sonic Blue is awsome too...It's a tough choice, but it's cool they droped the color for 06 because all your cars will be that much more unique. Plus it stay's clean a few minutes longer than black...

 

Mustangtuning.com is using my Pony to show the black deep dish bullit's...I thought that was kinda cool.

 

I already called Mustangtuning. They said the 18x9 and 18x10 deep dishes are just like yours (deep dish all around) they even said that they have the same lip measurements. argh!!! I'll just wait....

 

Photochopped your ride to look evem more evil, very mad max like, without the blower.
