Yeah, the mods you did were a COMPLETE waste of time obviously.

Wow, it's amazing that your car even looked like that stock one at one time. What kind of front fascia is that? I don't remember any info on that, looks really nice.

I installed the street scene body kit. Awesome quality.

Thanks for the pics John!

Booting up this morning, I was gonna switch out my wallpaper - currently the sideshot one of your car in the park - to something else - now I got a new one!

Dave, I think it is funny how your desktop is a pic of my car and my desktop is a pic of your car. I have this pic of yours as my desktop

(Funny thing is, now that I have a 'clean tail', I am actually hesitating about putting the Street Scene ducktail on cause I am sorta digging it the pure fastback thing ....)

Nah, I am sure you have lots of plans for your car. However, you should have bought my plenum cover

Yea i was thinking of buying it, but I'll probably hold out for the rumored one from Ford. I like the pics in the first post

Did you get the bottom grill yet ?

Ever think about painting the side vinyl mirrors the same body color? I bet it would look good.

Hey John.....I agree with Stang_It's comment.....would you consider the mirrors body colour??? Me thinks it would look great, especially on yours.

Just trying to help 'ya whittle away some more of that money. Who needs it anyways!!

I have not received the grill yet. I am waiting for the custom grill before they ship the lower one. As for the mirrors, I was going to get them painted but then decided not to because nobody would guarantee they would not chip. Seeing how many chips I already have on my car it could have been pretty bad. However, I am really glad they are not painted because everything tends to flow now with the shaker being installed. When you see the front of the car it looks pretty good. From the side, the mirrors sort of blend into the window and if they were painted they would stand out more. At least that is what I think anyway.

John and Dave both of your cars are just awsome :worship: . I wish I could get my wife to let me spend the money. Dave I have to know what tire and wheel combo are you running. I love the wheels and would like to know what they are and where you got them please.

John - I think you are right on with the mirrors - with the black of the window tint, the tires, the grill and the other 'trim', not to mention the shaker scoop, I think they fit in just fine. Since the blue and the black are darker colors (as opposed to say SY), I think they offset each other just enough.....

Tony: thanks man!!
Don't wanna hijack John's thread (he has MOD authority and he will use it! )

I'm running Mustang Tuning 18x9 anthracite bullitts on the Dark Knight II, wrapped in NITTO 555 rubber: 255/45s on the front and 275/40s on the back.

Can't say enough about these wheels - they look great, are easy to clean, have a bit more angle in the 'spokes' than the stock bullits, and are deeper, with the polished lip. I have gotten so many compliements on the wheels and the best is when I tell them I paid like $154.99 a pop with FREE shipping....

Get a set and you will be very happy
