NICE!! How did you do this? Are these from off-the-shelf parts? Is it using the OEM fog lights

Unrelated to your particular mod, I am still taken aback when I see the awesome hood lines on new Mustangs. It's a thing of beauty and easily the best stock hood I can think of.

I got all parts from NewTakeOff.com. They were a great company to deal with. All came as a kit, factory painted, minus the grill surround. Now I need new wheels.

Thanks

My plan it to eventually put a different grill on it. This one came as a kit. I am not trying to make it something it isnt. The V6 front bumper didnt really do it for me.

I love the grill-mounted fog lights. I'd do this in a heartbeat with absolutely no intention of fooling anybody into thinking I have a GT. It just looks more aggressive.

That's an awesome site - I never knew about it. So after some wear & tear you can still get OEM parts way lower than direct OEM prices! Now I'm not so concerned about a little bumper & trim rash - it would be cheaper to get a replacement than getting it fixed!

So now a car has to be a GT to have the GT grille/fascia? What about the taillights, headlights, hood, fenders, wheels, tires, blah blah blah...

Really, some people need to come down from the clock tower and unload their rifles...

Not sure yet on wheels. I will put tints on it and probably lower it at some point. CAI and tune is also prob in my future when money allows.

Looks great! I'm definitely looking to do this soon. I'm planning on the CS lower valance, but I want the fogs in the grille as well. It looks soo mean coming at you.

By "tints", I assume you mean on the lights. If it were me (and it has been), I'd save that for the very last thing. Spend your money on the more obvious mods first - window tint, custom wheels, and lowering first.

If you REALLY want to tint your lights, you can do it cheaper with a can of spray tint, and you can then control how tinted your lights are. Personally, I see no value in tinting lights because at some point, it becomes a safety concern (and that's why some cops are so eager to write tickets for it).

I ment the windows. Sorry for the confusion. You are correct in my opinion on the tinted lights. Police in my area dont need any extra incentive to pull a person over.

Silver is also correct. I would love to have a GT but I drive about 75 miles a day so the V6 was just a more sensible choice for me. Actually I'd love to have both!!!

Nice man! Ive been tryin to do this mod for a while but hvnt had the time or funds to. College is draining me out. I think the black/machine AM racing wheels or flat black AM racers would look great on the car
