They just look really sharp on a SGM car!

Thanks guys, the wheels are the SVT 18x9.5 rims off the 2010 GT500 convertible. Cast aluminum, not forged, so not very light, but still a great looking wheel, and I got a great deal on them so I had to snag them.

I'm gonna turn them into my winter set-up by the end of this year, since I want to run staggered-size wheels/tires very soon, with 305+ rear tires since the Whipple is getting done next week

Love it man! Post some pics of your Bronco in the "Ford Fleet" thread. I'm thinking about moving out to Sac in the next year or two. It would be kinda far for you, but my buddy works at Harrold Ford as a service writer, so if you ever need work let me know and I'll have him take care of you.

Cleaned mine today for the first time in a LONG time ... but she's much happier now:

Then I installed a couple of decals on the new RTR trunk panel, the first one being for my local Mustang Car Club, the second obviously being a black pony, kinda like how the 2015 car has it:

Here is my stock GT, sitting in the driveway the other day before we got rain after rain. I guess when I go to band practice later it will be filthy again.

I like it so far. Makes the car a little more throaty, and adds a little on the low end. Nothing really huge. I also put a fresh 93P tune on it and I really like how and where the car shifts when you step on it.

No argument here. I commented on another thread you posted. How'd you get that nice dark SGM tone in the pics?

Just got the forgestar CF5V's mounted. 19x9 up front on 275/35 nitto invos and 19x11 on 325/30 invos as well. Loving the stance and that wide tire out back.

I had a professional take a pic of my car while at a car show but it is basically what SGM looks like in HDR

Are those later rims black or charcoal?

Textured black from forgestar. It's a matte black but a bit rough. I like it

Thanks! They look great. Another Q: What chin spolier is that, and how much clearance do you have between it and the road?

It's the street scenes ll. I got it painted to match the body color. There isn't much cleanance and I have to go up at an angle to my driveway. But in my opinion I like the aggressive look it gives. For what it's worth I'm lowered on k Springs which r a 1.5 inch drop.
