Ok im thinkin bout really changin up the body. Rims will be the saleen replicas (black or hypercoated) tinted head an tail lights and windows. Thinkin cobra rear bumper (smooth) no spoiler, mach 1 grille delete, cobra bumper+ chin spoiler. And either termi hood or 3"cowl hood to top things off. All badges will be taken and all holes filled. What do yall think??

 

sounds good, I'd go with the cowl hood. Looks viscious with the cobra bumper. the saleen wheels are my personal favorite. I like a lot of them, including especially the BBK RS's, but they're hella expensive if you can find them, so I think i'm going chrome saleens


My plans are: cobra front bumer with trim piece, mach 1 hood and shaker setup over a blown 4v motor, cobra mirrors, bullitt rocker panels, mach 1 C Pillars

 

The only thing though is that the saleen rims are heavy. I read somewhere that one saleen rim with a 275 tire weighed aroubd 65-70 lbs?

 

Do you really care? Unless you are doing some kind of competative racing then go for it for the look.

 

Those cowl hoods do look bad a. What brought on the change of plan?

 

I didnt know the Saleens weighed that much.

I'd like to find a set of these:


BBS RK Plasmas, hella expensive and no longer made

 

and for the cowl hood, this should pretty much sum it up:

 

That is an absolute win.

 

Them are the ones I want. Now that I see them an that cowl my wheels are turning lol. You could put a big blower under that thing

 

Im gettin the KB conversion maybe next year. @14psi id be round 570hp and 540lb ft. I gotta get forged internals and upgrade fuel lines and all that good stuff. And if i see a car with those bbs rims ima just take em, write my name on em and call em mine

 

if you can find them, expect $300-500/wheel at least. They're astonishingly high!

for further drool worthy pics:
The Official BBS RK Plasma Thead

 

I cant handle it! Im calling BBS and telling them to bring back the Plasma or else.....

 

Lighter wheels can make a pretty big difference even in spirited driving. When I switched from 18x9 (~28-29lbs if memory serves) Black Chrome Mach 1 wheels to my current 18x8.5(~19lbs)/18x10 (~20lbs) BBS RKs (sorry no plasma) I was able to feel a difference for the better.

 

Yea thts why i wanna find a lighter rim thats looks sick but also isnt too pricey. Any reccomendations folks??

 

XXR 521 Wheels? I think the 18x10s are ~22lbs.

I'd like to see another color besides black. I also wouldn't mind seeing the 'XXR 526' wheels on a Mustang.

I like the ones on the white better
The rivets on the termi r somethin i could live without honestly. But yea i just need ta start shoppin around

 

Anyone know how much stock bullitts weigh?

 

Im gonna guess somewhere between 30-40lbs?

 

I think they weigh something like 28 lbs.
