She looks great!
I agree with Diva. Keep the headlight splitters off.

THANK YOU for speaking up on this. I was going to say something, but didn't want to offend anyone

But now that you said, yes, not only is it non-functional, but it's tacked on (and looks tacky), and impedes headlight brightness. Not really sure what its intended purpose is. Kindda like the tack-on hood scoop.... no thanks.

I think they looking ****ing awful on every 05+ Mustang. Also all the aftermarket headlights look like crap too. The only "good" aftermarket taillights I've seen have been the 13+ style for the 05-09 cars and the "retro" ones for 10-12's.

Would you be offended if I copied the way you finished your rims? Like I PM'ed you, they look amazing like that. My car will be black, and no OTT striping, so it won't look exactly the same....and I live a few miles from Texas so odds of us ending up in the same parking lot are fairly remote.

I think the original intent was to mimic the front end vents/look of the 70 Boss Trans-am car on the Saleen Parnelli Jones Mustang. I believe the PJ was the first car they were used on.

Gotta love 70's aerodynamics. Chin spoiler? Snow shovel? Same factory.

Mind the (wheel) gap. Instagram filters make everything look better...
Some ADVAN TCII I had from my hyundai genesis. Needs some taller, non mis-matched/dry rotted tires, coming in the next couple of weeks.
