New 18x9 & 18x10 FR500 Wheels Are On!

Before I had factory Bullitt Rims... What a huge difference!

I'll try to get a few this weekend. The only mods back there are the 96-98 tinted taillights and 3.5" dual magnaflow tips.

Looks like an aftermarket rear bumper too... Is that a vent on the side? I can't really tell.

Yep, just a vent. The rear bumper almost looks like stock from the rear, except the part behind the wheels it goes down to the same height as my side skirts. The entire car all around is 5.5" from the ground. Didn't want to keep the stock bumper because it looked kind of funny sitting at 9 or 10 inches from the ground.

Gotta have the rear bumper to make the entire car sit level on the bottom at 5"... nothing worse than seeing someone with a Cobra-R bumper that sits 5" from the ground and their side skirts and rear bumper sit 8-9" from the ground. I really like the way that the side of the rear bumper (behind the wheels) is the same height as my side skirts/front bumper then it goes up to stock height in the rear. Every other bumper was either stock height or the entire bumper sat low to the ground (like the black widow rear).

As far as the V6 goes... When I purchased this car many years ago when I was in high school... I didn't have much cash so I couldn't get the '95 GT. The '95 GT only has 215HP anyhow... When I'm finished building this V6 I hope to pull around 400+ HP. So when the guy next to me says its just a V6... he better have something special under his hood lol
