Nice car by the way.

I'm digging the anthracite wheel treatment,i'm looking into getting the 18" painted argent wheels from the Ford accessory cataloge,part no.6R3Z=1007-M*.I really like the Konig Beyond wheels I have but the Bullitts look a lot better.

The dark look is interesting but I'm looking at going in a different direction. Most people go with black stripes and accents because it looks good with the orange.

To make my car different, I have decided to go with 12" Tungston Metallic LeMans stripes and painted orange accessories such as the rear louver. According to SilverHorse, the quarter window louvers will not be ready until Christmas or later so I'm waiting for those.

I got the new spoiler, rear louver and sequential tail lights installed last night. This weekend I will have the SLP Loudmouths and the hood struts installed. Strips and windows tint will be done in 2 weeks or so. Stay tuned!

Love the rear louvers and the other ideas but sorry can't stand the new spoiler....just not my taste.....to me a Mustang should look retro and that is way too.....oh god I hate to use this term "ricey" for my taste, but hey good job on making the car "yours"

Yeah, I know I'm gonna hear about "rice" but thats ok. My car will definatly be a cross between retro and fast&furious. The good thing is that I can easily remove this wing and go to something else. If I get tired of this look maybe I will put a ducktail on it.

The cool thing about these Mustangs is that there are so many appearance options available with more arriving every day. And because most things just bolt on, I can easily change the look anytime I like.

But for now, I'm gonna relive my mispent youth.

A friend of my PhotoShop'd in the quarter window vent. It looks great!

Can't wait for it to arrive so I get it painted and installed!

I see it's starting to come together. I for one, like the window treatment on the Saleens. Those buggers are $199 a pair but they look good without losing a whole lot of field of view. Will have to think about those...

I'm all for whatever a guy does to his car.I had a Steeda short wing on my 06"GT,20" Racelines,lowered,loud MAC's.After 25 years of doing old school cars I felt this Mustang was a modders dream coime true and I was going try a freestyle approach to personalizing my ride.I received many comments,being a gray hair (w/mullet)& 50 years old some of the younger folks were pretty sure I was my driving my kids car.

Hey Mark,
Those are nice louvers you'll have. I like the Tungsten stripes too, it will be a tough decision for me once I've ordered, which should happen within the next 2-3 weeks, thanks the Lords of Orange.

Do you mind providing details on how you are getting your mod parts painted G.O. such as your rear louvers and wing-like spoiler there? Are you "doing it yourself", or taking those parts to a paint shop and if so, what kind of $$ are we talking about for these piece-parts paint jobs?
I am leaning towards the quarter louvers from DG Custom Auto because they arrive painted in the mail. But I was eyeing the legend spolier or at least some form of ducktail spoiler, but they all seem to come primed only

The lowering is already on the list. I already have the Eibach springs. I hope to have them installed within the next 2 weeks.

Most of the mods will be completed before Christmas. Stay tuned!

Well, that news just popped up yesterday, what can I tell you.
Silverhorse Racing's louvers are too hard-core for me, my attraction to these DG ones was that it came painted and had at least some visibility through them out the window from the drivers seat.

I suppose if you had a black 'Stang, it wouldn't be nearly as noticable, but who knows. I might take my chances anyhow at the price offered and paint the interiors myself, something in a flat black seems right.

Yea, my quarter windows are so dark they are just about black, so I guess the offending areas probably wouldn't be too noticable...my 4 year old is the only person that's ever been in the back seat, and I doubt she cares what the inside of the louvers look like.

Hey Chad, that looks great! Nice work!

Two more things you can add if you like...the mirrors will be painted orange soon and there will be a GT 350 rocker panel stripe in Tungston Metallic.

Loudmouth's Live Up To Their Name!

Installed the Loudmouth's today. Oh yeah. You can hear that engine now! Makes the stock exhaust sound like a asthmatic hampster.

I love the sound.

Eibach springs go in tomorrow. Stripes will go on next weekend. Will post new pictures soon.
