CDC RTR Makeover ;)
So I recently drove 10 hours to Michigan from NJ because I won Classic Design Concepts's Makeover $2000 contest and was at the Mustang Memories show at Ford's World Headquarters.
What I got done was all RTR parts. Now I still had to pay for 2 wheels and 4 tires and I'm not complaining at all haha. If I didn't it wouldn't have included the wheels and just wouldn't look right.
Before the makeover I started with my stock v6 wheels which were plastidipped, and then the only other real mod was the GT grille I installed a while ago, so here's what my car looked like before the show (they were taken before I got tints as well):
And here's after.
19 inch RTR Characoal wheels staggered
RTR Front Chin Spoiler
RTR Spoiler
RTR License Plate Surround
RTR 3 Piece Splitter Set (on the back)
RTR Decklid
So I'm extremely grateful and excited about this, the car looks so much better than it did before.

Congratulations, my car was selected for the make over last year. I couldn't make Mustang Memories this year - I didn't have it on my calendar and scheduled a vacation to Ireland so was out of the country and missed it.

Congrats on winning! Your car looks really good. I'm digging the rims.

Also just know for the rear license plate surround it requires cutting of your factory bumper to install since it is much deeper than the oem part. So it depends on whether or not you'd want to do that. I'm thankful a professional was there to do that for me because it would've took me hours haha

I definitely agree, I'm going to look into getting side splitters to help complete the look. That way it helps connect the back splitters to the front chin spoiler.

When they did my car last year I got the performance grille, RTR front spoiler, side splitters, rear splitters and license plate surround - hood graphic and the light bar for my convertible.

Beautiful car! I love the rear decklid panel....but i'm scared to death to do the install. Any pictures of the cutting procedure?
