A new Bullitt with no quarter window. You gotta see this.

Saw this at mustang week in Myrtle Beach yesterday. Owner used glass as template for piece to fit in hole. Very sharp looking. He's from Richmond, VA area and a shop there did it for him. Glass was tinted and it was hard to see what the inside looked like but he filled it it with a piece using same texture as side panel. Looked very good from what I could make out.

I have no pic, but I saw a Screaming Yellow 06 GT with a similar mod. I thought it looked awesome! There is definitely some room for Ford to make these cars sexier.

It's different. It wouldn't be for me, but as long as he likes it.

That's a large area, something almost has to break it up, which the window does. Even the solid panel for Shelby's does that.

SHR louvers would've been a nicer looking mod and just as clean looking.

He did a great job of it--but why? It doesn't look as good as stock, it probably knocked a bunch off the value of his Bullitt down the road, the resulting blind spot must be ginormous, "it makes my butt look big", and he's done something funky with the Bullitt faux gas cap--which he should have canned and blended the resulting hole in the recessed panel between the taillights into the surrounding sheetmetal as professionally as he blended in the space where the quarter windows once resided. THAT I would like to see.

It's his car, his money, yada yada yada...

Someone else who saw it said you could faintly see the outline of the filled hole in the light reflecting on the panel.

i think it looks pretty cool, but feel it needs somthing, should have put in 1968 style louvers.

Nicely done but not for me. Maybe because I'm so used to the factory look but it looks like it's missing something..

With all the work they put into welding & filling the window in, they could have put in real 1967-68 louvers.

I couldn't deal with the blind spot. But It's unique, that's for certain. This is one mod I don't think he'll have to worry about too many people copying.
