Since opinions were requested by the OP, the car looks very nice! I'm not crazy about the badges, but that's personal preference. As I like to say, if we all had the exact same taste we'd all be driving the exact same cars. And, quite frankly, that'd be pretty boring.

I wouldn't go that far. It's white with the correct blue stripes, and it has a KR-style hood on it. Some Shelby owners were hating it just because of these things.

Right. I wanted to give the Shelby guys a tangible reason to hate the car. I didn't think they were hating it for the right reasons, and I'm always interested in helping today's youth.

And I'm confused as to what you're confused about. I think you're over-thinking it. Simply take solace in the stark yet warm performance whiteness, and let the stripes bathe your mind in a sea of blue, and as your eyes gaze upon its countenance, you notice, "Hmmm, Shelby letters, well, okay I guess... Oooooh... ahhhh...".

Correct, but this is kind of redundant since you covered it in the first paragraph.

But I *didn't* ask for opinions. I merely said, "Here's the latest pics of my car, and oh by the way, here are some detail shots of the wheel caps I made myself."

Your car looks awesom jsimmons, one of the best looking cars ive seen on this forum, and im not just saying that to blow smoke either. You look like youve put alot of time in that car and that my friend is what makes it YOUR mustang!!! Keep it up! And forget the haters out there!

I used to have this faux cap. One reason. This was the only one that was satin. All of the others were chrome. Yuck. Am I a bad person for putting a cobra on my V6?

I'd close it but it'll just happen again with the next set of pics. Both sides are futile in trying to persuade the other.

I wouldn't put false badges on my car. But J's car is not my car. It's his. To do with as he pleases. This is a forum with opinions. No stopping that. If you're gonna take pics and post them be prepared for the opinions. It's just the way it is it seems J is prepared for that.

But let's not call names and insult each other and question each others character in a freakin pics thread.

It would be sad to close this as its about his car and not everyone's views on designer jeans or whatever. Holy crap people take a second count to ten and relax...

.

what I was saying, is that your car in no way shape or form resembles a GT500 I've ever seen. Stripes or no stripes. It's kind of like putting the word Shelby on the back of a ford Taurus. But that's my opinion.

I see that view as rather bizarre, especially given this article from Road And Track:

http://www.roadandtrack.com/special-...carroll-shelby

Look specifically at Question #4...

Now that I look back, you're right! My mistake. Anyway, it's still a nice car!

I find it bizarre that you would post pictures on a public forum and expect people to not comment. By posting the pics, you indirectly asked for opinions of others.

I don't think anyone's getting anything your saying. Thanks Gary for "corralling" this forum.

OK. Thread has been cleaned, purged, and disinfected.

I did not censor any opinions, merely removed the extraneous ones.

Please remember this is to remain on topic and please respect the original intent of the OP in sharing his pics in this thread.

People have differing views and this a free public forum provided you abide by the rules of TMS you agreed to when you signed up. I'm getting a little tired of all the clutter you people have been putting in threads simply about the pics or mods of a persons car. If I read one more posts about designer jeans or **** I'm closing this thread.

Be respectful, even in dissent.
