TORCHRED05'S 18x9 HALIBRANDS
Okay, if you all can remember I had 20's, decided that they were just a bit to heavy for the ole V6 and my gas mileage was starting to stink! Sooooo, I sold those and went with the Halibrand Cobra III's w/ Dunlop SP9000's in 255/45/18's. These wheels have a +34MM Offset and move right out to the fenderwell, looks pretty good I think with this offset...

Looks a lot more Shelby and a lot less Snoop. Great Job, your car looks sweet!

Perfectly said!
Yeah - 100 times better! Nice!!
Mattie - looks good - overall you car looks like it came that way....everything works well together.
Question: That hood scoop - is it an add on scoop or an entire new hood?
And the GT grill - I thought they were not interchangable with the V6 grill - can you explain?
thx!!

Adrenalin my friend, I was wondering if you would notice that!
LOL! Snoop...
Never heard that one before.As far as the scoop and no not SNOOP it's an add-on Non-functional of course.
Yes they are interchangeable it just takes a little time and patience and some muscle to get that beatch in (not related to sex, there are ladies on this forum). If anyone wants instructions shoot me a PM and I'll send a copy over to you for your review..
You know, this is why I frequent this forum, lot's of classy people with excellent advice. I've taken a LOT of information from this forum alone and applied those ideas and suggestions to my torch red, I really appreciate all of you...oh no, starting to get all emotional and stuff :cry:
Adrenalin - I have ran out of stuff to do keep waiting for more new products for the 6 to hit the market...primarily the supercharger...I can only wash and wax this car so much...
Off topic - check this out. I'm headed home the other day and there's this dude in a big ole friggen monster truck following me. I'm pulling into the garage and I look in the rearview and sure enough he was pulling in behind me! So I said to myself...self...holy crap hope I didn't cut that dude off or something stupid like that. There is a god, this fella was huge, nope all he wanted to do is look at my car. He say's I just helped him make the final decision to go buy one. When he left I was like "yeah right". Anyhow, about an hour later there's this family van pulling up and all I could see through the windshield were
Sure enough, same guy but this time with his WIFE!! Longer story short...off they went to buy a new '05 (V6 of course since we can't seem to find one anywhere). Talk about making my day, that felt pretty good you know?

Really looking good. It does look better with the side of the spoiler painted white now. Completes the whole thing. Hopefully mine look as nice once my wheels come in. I always did like the scoops but I still can't convince myself to do one unless it were functional but it does look great and you have a real nice car. I can see why the trucker stopped.
