I'm sick and tired of Bullit wheels. I've seen them on foxes, 94-98's, new edges, rangers, mazda trucks, even on thunderbirds and cougars. They are the most used wheel since the Camaro five spokes, so to speak.

I don't like how the shape of them changed on the S197s. I think bullitts look best on new edges, but I might be biased

that being said, I don't plan on keeping them forever

They are a over-used wheel design. But on factory Bullits are okay to me, imho.
Put them on the II Arin.

I might someday. Whenever I get a new set of wheels for the bullitt I'll probably hole onto my wheels, get an adapter kit for the II and slap em on

they look good on IIs thats for sure

At least I haven't seen them on II's, not as I've seen a II lately, though.

I've only seen chops of the SN95 ones on IIs, but there are some IIs with the S197s on there. The V6 S197 wheels look particulary good on them

I would like a set of 05 v6 Pony Package wheels for my 94. I've been mocking my buddy to sell them to me when he puts some wheels on his yellow one.

The stripe on the hood/grill was DIRT easy. I literally did it in less than an hour total. Just tape, light sanding (on the hood at least, we didnt sand the grill area) and spray some good coats on. I think I sprayed 3-4 coats of Krylon Rust Tough Semi Flat black paint on there

Makes the car look waaaay cooler/meaner. Black out the nostrils, spoiler and rear valence bits too while you're at it. gives a really good Mach 1 feel

if hes doing the bodywork, might as well do it before just to see. It will cost you maybe $10 for the paint + tape lol
