So I think that I have my heart set on a pair of 302 emblems from bossstyleinc a set of ss Mustang inserts from UPR and those tinted fogs from Eli Yarbrough if he still has them. I'm itching to drop all the money I had saved over the summer.

The normal 5.0's I do not believe cover the hole. Secondly, I don't think they follow the curvey shape. Thirdly, weren't the 5.0's really 4.999999s? Might as well stick with the more precise 302.

I'd go for some V-6 Running Pony fender emblems. ( IMO, I prefer subtlety - I want to de-badge my 5.0 )

actually 302 is 4.93 or somthing and technically should be rounded down to 4.9 a true 5.0 is 305 i beleive.

I really like the idea of the 302's, and I think they look pretty slick. My car isn't very understated anymore, and I think that the V6 bumper alone makes a lot of Mustang knowing people believe that I'm just a very riced out 6er. I'd like to keep the GT part fairly clear.

I'm pretty sure the SOUND of your car cancels any sort of assumption that your car is a 3.8L

Even I thought that my buddies V6 with flows sounded nice before I got my car.

never said that the V6s sound bad, you can just tell that your car isn't a sixer when you hear it. its a distinct sound lol.

Of course, not quite on par with a mod motor with Bullitt exhaust, but hey, we can't all be perfect

When something far surpasses something else the term on par doesn't really apply. You yourself even said you like the sound of a 302 better.

Probably the first or second time you road in my car when it was working right, you said that you liked the sound of a 5.0 more than a 4.6.
