He might have told me? Thought of something but wasn't this car. Hang on.

They are just stock. Just angle & shade making them look tinted.

Thanks for the feedback. The tail light tint was my first mod. They are an overlay material that you put on like a graphic. Pretty thick vinyl kind of material. Stangmods.com has them.
My second mod was having the Brembo wheels chromed. I'm happy with how they came out but they take a little more effort to keep clean than the painted wheels.

KP......Very sinister looking, especially with the picture taken in front of the grave stones!

On second thought the window tint was my second mod and the wheels third. Getting kind of hard keeping track at this point. I should put all my mods to date on the signature line place.

AWESOME looking ride man! Those chromed wheels look VERY nice on your black car. I don't think I've seen them chromed before!

Thanks for the compliments guys! $700 to have them chromed. My understanding is that the chrome only added 1/4 lb. to each wheel. I wasn't real concerned about the added weight.

Very cool video! I want to try that. I'm too cheap though, and will have to wait until I'm ready for new tires. I haven't even done a burnout yet. Boy, I'm itching to smell some rubber though.

Thanks. Wait until I'm about to change these out. Then I'll really get on it.

Chromed Brembo wheels =


Been thinking about getting mine done for a while.

Any close ups of the wheels?
