Looks much better with the front splitter on and the hood blacked out than with only the wing on. The splitter balances the car out on the front with the wing on the rear.

Nice... Anymore planned mods?

I like everything EXCEPT the rear wing. It's your car and everyone else seems to really like it but I have never been a fan of wings. JMO~

I LOVE the hood, actually messed around with a paint program a few weeks ago to see how it would look but never imagined it would look that good.

Curious, is the splitter the front lip spoiler thing?

Hey swingle where are the 007 spinners? I told you the front spoiler would balance it out. I was not sure how the Mach wheels would look on an 05 But I like! It is Getting so Close to Looking like a Factory Boss/Cobra/Mach car! Shaker next? Keep up the good work and congrats on not getting beat up like when you put your back Spoiler on! I think the is mood is mellowing somewhat! But in the meantime I got a Kevlar Flak Jacket for any Forum Pot Shots so they do not bother me anymore! Ck my updated profile it says it All.

Car looks great. Wasn't sure I liked your wing when you first posted pics of it, but it's all coming together now. Great vision. Are you planning on doing any kind of body kit down the sides to tie in with the splitter? Really like the rims!

Where can I find that splitter?

Also you mentioned a bigger tire? What do you think the widest would be for the magnums?

I'm not a fan of giant air dams, but your car looks nice!

Good job, Swingle.

Hey guys! thanks for even more props on the car's new appearance....Mike has it correct on the splitter...It is the Steeda splitter from their website....Comes ready to paint in a grey color..nice and smooth so no sanding needed....took it out to a houston meetup of '05 Mustang owners today and the splitter seemed to work really well..nice and smooth at hwy speed and higher (LOL)....Cuts through it wonderfully...I'll throw up a few pics of the cars that showed...I had Bryan take some video of my startup, idle, and take off for those curious about the Bassani's...ALSO did a real nice smokey BURNOUT and he will be posting it tomorrow for all to see....We did the same thing with his car and Madhouse's as well to give an idea on the difference in exhaust notes....Hope you all enjoy! first shot below was mine before I left to go up there this morning...........oh, next major mod for me will be a supercharger to answer that question....

John
