Well I finally gotten most everything done to the exterior that I have wanted to. It has GT front and rear bumpers, GT side skirts, dual GT exhaust, 18'' Boyd Coddington Smoothie II's, BF Goodrich KDW 2's, Roush Hood Scoop, SSE Ducktail, AEM CAI, and Woodview Dash Kit. I would like to do a few more things to the exterior. Suggestions? I've been thinking about a black out panel for the rear. Here are some pictures.

First pic is what I started with:

If you wan't one more thing, theres always that blackout you mentioned or even rear and/or 1/4 louvres

A mod can take care of deleting the other one

lol, not a big deal at all

I really like how those mods wake up the styling on the V6. Have you gotten the foglights wired in btw?

I have a real serious question. You obviously aren't opposed to spending money on the car, so why didn't you just buy a GT to begin with? You are installing power adders (CAI so far anyway) and your other car has a ton of performance mods. With the time and effort you have put into the car, as well as the money associated with just the appearance, it can't be gas mileage savings. I just don't understand why you would have bought the V-6 in the first place.

Don't get me wrong, your car looks fantastic, and those rims are just sick.

Nice Cam I'm diggin the roush scoop more everytime I see it Azou I cant speak for Cam but for me I wanted fog lights without choping up my bumper and wanted the install to be clean. Forcing the GT grill in the v6 wouldnt have satisfied me even if gaps were almost unoticable. Plus I intended to add a dual exhaust and casco hooked me up well. But I dont know for me I guess it was the same reasons I modded my 2000 focus and 2003 focus svt.. because its fun

The reason that some of us who have (or are about to) purchasing a V6 is because of the insurance. I now have a 16 year old son who needs to be able to drive our "family car" on occasion, and to insure him for my 1988 GT would have cost $2,000 every 6 months, and the new V6 will be $400 ever 6 months.
So even if I can’t “act like I have a pair†(of missing pistons, that is), at least I can look and sound like I do. I hope that this will keep my family from suffering from shame and disgrace for generations to come.

I am 16 and the insurance on a GT would probably have killed us, but our insurance company placed me on our '89 Coupe. It was cheaper for me to be on that than my mom's Yukon which is strange. In the future I do plan though to get a GT.

ManEHawke, no i've have not gotten around to wiring the fog lights up yet.

05-1947, they are 255/45's all the way around.

Thanks for all of your comments!

Good point, the insurance thing didn't even occur to me. I've been there, I paid almost $1,000 per year on my old 82 V-6 Cutlass back when I was 16.

BaSsFreAk89, yes I ordered all of my GT parts from Casco. Also, I would like to give a big thanks to Kevin (05stangkc) for getting me all of the extra pieces to make the install of the GT parts complete and look right. Great guy to do business with!

Outstanding!! Your car looks great. And a bonus good gas millage!!! Do they make a blower for the V6?? I bet it would be at least 300 hp. Something to think about.....
