OK so I have been debating on what wheels and exterior options to add to my Grabber Blue stang. What I need is a bit of help deciding on wheel type and color and what company to buy from.

Rear black out panel - I have seen some but if any of you have them (even on different color cars) I would like to see them. I want to keep the rear emblem in tact. I will be tinting the tail lights and side markers as well.

Wheels - Black is an easy choice for my color but I really like the 2010(?) GT500 wheels, though some say chrome is best for GB. here are the ones I seen that I liked (if you have other suggestions post them) Thanks for your help!!

GT500 wheels


Similar but machined with black accent from AM

CS69


Not sure what these are but I like them

 

I like your first choice. The gt500 style wheels are awesome

 

Yeah I am heavily leaning toward those as well that pic makes it an easy sell.

the look I am going for is fairly common (I guess) so I need a good rear black out panel that looks unique with OEM fit. Seen a few but have not the right one yet. After that I am thinking Roush 427 front and maybe black billet grille with Tri bar emblem

 

I really like the CS69's, they were ones I was considering if I hadn't bought the torque thrust M's for my GB Stang.

Yes I am a big fan of the CS69's the last shot below practically sold me on the GB color before seeing it, until I saw a GB GT500...

Razors are nice too. Bullets are typical but classy, but I am thinking I want to go a different route. Ugh the GT500's would be such a simple choice if not for those CS69's. Price is likely going to win this as I remember the Shelby tax on those being pretty high lol

 

I like the CS69's. I also like my wheels, checkout my profile

 

I did not see any pics of your car when I looked for threads by you. Also its looking like about $1,400 for the CS69's and I already know I need new tires since the stock Pirelli's won't work so that puts the CS69's out of my range, because good tires are going to be $700 easy.

 

Ahhh crap, gimme a sex lol sorry

 

Haha meant sec, just uploaded a few from my phone I'll add some more tonight when I'm on my computer

 

Freudian slip perhaps OK I see the pics are those FR500's? Like the blacked out badge too.

 

Haha maybe it was a slip, but don't want sex from you sir haha

No those are the ford racing track pack wheels... Essentially they are black brembos. I like them alot. My only complaint is that they are all 19x9, I wish they made a 19x10 also so I could have wider rear tires

 

Gt500's FTW!

 

Can't argue that, I'm going for a blacked out look so I wanted black wheels but the gt500's look friggin awesome too

 

Pick up some all black gt500 replicas. They have them american muscle. They are sweet as well.

 

I just feel like they look cheap, maybe it's just the pics but I don't like them.

 

Do Black! That looks best with GB.

 

I agree except with a chrome lip.

 

I thought so too from the pics of just the rims. But looking at customer pictures that are posted I think they look pretty good. The oem wheels are def better looking though

 

I heard the AM look a likes have manufacturing defects, things like the rim not being properly molded and causing wheel jutter and balancing problems. Its cheaper for a reason...

lol me either but funny none the less


Yeah I am pretty much set on the GT500's. Though I think I am going to go with the vert version (because hilariously like the 07-09 fan blades they have different versions) which has a machined face and argent wells.

So any one have any recommendations on a rear black out panel? I have not seen any that I like much. Though I did have a thought, that requires some research. Would a 2013 rear black out panel (yes its a separate part) fit on a 2012? If so I would sand and paint it matte black
