Whinnie gets a Mach-over!

With the help of my friend, I added an Alloy Grey GT spoiler I got on eBay, smaller pony badges, and Mach 1 Decals from a '71.


The swap of the spoilers is easy, in theory. We spent a good amount of time dealing with the over abundance of two sided adhesive stripes Ford decided to put between the car and the spoiler. Desperate, we resorted to breaking the V6 spoiler. Oh well. The decals went on easy and the badges did, too. However, placing them was nerve racking due to basically one shot deals. Colorado weather has given us rain (heavy rain) for the last week and a half. Luckily we had the garage to do it in. The whole makeover took from about 12-6 including, lunch, water breaks, taking trips to Advance Auto Parts, etc. It was a good experience, but my muscles in my arms are paying for it from all that pushing and pulling, trying to get the spoiler off.

I am sooooooo happy with how it looks now!!!

She's lookin' real good! Nice choice on the spoiler, I say.

/at least, I assume she's a 'she'. Whinnie sounds like a 'she' name. I'm not searching to find the truth.

Just in case you guys didn't know what my Mustang has gone through as far as mods in the past five years, here is my video.

The wheels may be stock ones, but they had to be refurbished to get them where they are today...

Are you going to go with a Shaker hood or a black non-shaker hood scoop? Can't go wrong with either.
