I know this look is really polarizing, and constructive criticism will never be turned down, but keep in mind that the look is staying and its what I want my Mustang to look like. Going into this I was shooting for Mad Max / Death Race / Death Proof look. Here are a few photos, nothing special, just in the parking lot at work. I'll get out for a real shoot here soon, photographs of the front end don't seem to really look like it does in person... oh well.
I'll be doing something tint wise with the tails soon, along with some thorough spring cleaning.

Hmm I see what you're going for, but now that you posted pics of the rear too, I think the grille would look better with horizontal openings. Also, in your initial sketch, you had the openings go all the way across - I think that would look better too. With your read decklid and the stock 5.0 rear valance, I really think horizontal lines would tie the front and the rear together better!
How about some yellow tint on your reverse lights, to be different?

Well, its all good. Does kind of seem like everyone in the Mustang community is all about their racing stripes and busted looking 20" wheels, so we'll see where this goes. Right now I'll just enjoy setting off car alarms and replacing tires.

My overlays would look killer on your car! Show is the gloss black...but I think the matte black would tie in well with the rest of your car.....a heck of a lot cheaper than most other options, and it gives you the look of the '13 tails. Just a thought.

Mad Max, death race/death proof look and no tint on the windows? Seems like a requirement for the look you want to achieve, no? Also, get a flat black wrap...seems a bit shiny for it to be Mad Max, death race/death proof.
That said, looks great as is.

Thanks, and solid advice. Hopefully tint, intake, tune come soon, but right now I'm packing up to check in at MCB Quantico, might be a while before anything Mustang related gets done... thus is the the Corps, haha.
