Is CDC shipping tungsten ducktails already - or did you have it painted to match?

Sorry man, had it painted. When I ordered the spoiler they didn't have them painted,though I probably still would've gotten the unpainted version since i was getting other stuff painted anyway. You may want to check with them because i ordered it a month and a half ago and they said then that they would have the painted one soon.

How do you like the side scoops? - I assume they are Cervinis - I've been on the fence about these for a while but haven't seen them on a car without the whole Cervinis body kit until yours. Do they stick out too far? etc? And more pictures of them would be great

Oh, and the car looks fantastic!

I like the sidescoops a lot. I too was worried that they would be too big, but I think they look good. They are a little bit bigger than , for example, the 2001+ mustang sidescoops, but not to the point where they are obnoxious. They really seem to flow with the lines of the body really well. I am a manager at a ford dealership here in san diego, and a couple of salepeople said that when they saw the car with the scoops, they didn't even notice them as aftermarket. I had to tell them that they didn't come with the car, then they put 2 and 2 together. Thats saying a lot because theses guys see mustangs every day.

The stripes are 10 1/4" stripes 1 1/4" apart. The scoops attach with double sided tape. I was worried they would not be held well enough by just tape. But they are very secure.

How much were the stripes, and did you have them done at the dealership?

I got the stripes done at a place in chula vista. I didn't think my dealership, as decent a body shop as they are, was really excited about doing this kind of custom work. For the stripes (clearcoated over all striped panels), the sidescoops, spoiler and mirrors, it was $2k. Pricey I know, but it was a lot of work and they did a very good job. Everywhere else was about the same price here in the san diego area, and I had actually seen stripes that this place had done so it was a no brainer. Some of the other places said they would do it but never had before, which scared me a bit. The place is called candies auto body.

No, Im not a big fan of the window scoops. I don't think it looks like it is missing the window scoops, so I am keeping it like it is.

Chad, your car looks great. I like the side scoops. After seeing a couple cars with side scoops lately, I've decided I want them eventually. I'd get the window scoops too... but that's just me.

What kind of wheels are those?

They look like the old Saleen 5 star wheels.

Yup. They make them in the 05 offset. Check out MustangTuning.com
