Not a problem with the rear window. They have a great locking mech. on the bottom. The top hinges use sdticky tape and with the prep solvent, believe me they aren't going any where! They did a nice job on these.

Oh my lord. I can't wait to see that thing with a shaker on it. Have you considered at set of the Heritage wheels from the '04 Mach 1 or some other kind of Magnum 500 styled wheel? I think that would just be the icing on the cake. :worship:

Thanks Zach those 500's are awesome. I've been wanting to order them myself but I'm unsure of the offset and back space, dont want to get it wrong.

I love the chin spoiler, does it come like that? or did you have to paint it. What did it look like when you received it. I was hoping it would look flat black kind of like the mach chin so could put it right on.

Yes you can order them from wheel vintiques but they can't help with the offset/backspace issues. I tried CDC and they couldn't either. Both said no orders yet for 05's so they have nothing to go on.

So if I understand what you are saying. You can unlock the louvers from the bottom end and raise it up because it has hinges on the top edge?

OBTW. Very nice looking. Look forward to seeing it with the shaker. Are you going to put a matte black finish on the hood or go with a Mach 1 type stripping?
