What my car will look like hopefully in a couple of weeks

Brandman316 · 04-21-2006, 12:46 PM

Ok, so as I told most of you guys my parents are very likely getting me the 18" chrome Fr500s as a graduation present. I had a guy from another web site photo shop my car for me and put the fr500s on, and man i like the way it looks!!! What do you guys think?? Should I go for the chrome?? The first pic is of my car as it is right now, the second pic is with the anthracite fr500s on it, and the third pic is with the chrome fr500s on it and the stang dropped, as I will hopefully get it dropped in a month or so. Tell me what you guys think!!

hmm...

i like em both.

either choice looks good.

happy graduation lol

DarkSith · 04-21-2006, 01:47 PM

I'd go chrome, I remember someone on this site had some chrome fr500's I think it was mineralGT or something, anyway it looked sick.

Who ever did the PS for you Needs alot of practice.

Willing to photoshop it better for me??!

BlitzStyrke · 04-21-2006, 01:55 PM

I think the chrome looks real good. Either way is good though.

04MustangGT · 04-21-2006, 02:34 PM

Congrats on the graduation.
I am also graduating but I dont think I will get **** for it... Oh well.
I like the first choice better! Not the chrome

Ghostalker · 04-21-2006, 03:13 PM

ooh, i am graduating this year, and you know what i get? to go to college, lol. I also get a free laptop, which will be sweet, although i am thinking about holding off till soph year for it ( so as to get a newer one), given it isnt required for freshy year where i am going.

Brandman316 · 04-21-2006, 03:49 PM

wow, after seeing mineralGT's car with the chrome fr500s i want the chrome even more lol!

suthrnstang · 04-21-2006, 04:32 PM

I'd go with the CHROME definitely :banana: Nothing like some bling bling to go with a gorgeous car

MattJ · 04-21-2006, 04:34 PM

Get anthracite.

Stan · 04-21-2006, 04:37 PM

chrome all da way!

matrixpuba · 04-22-2006, 09:37 AM

anthracite

DarkShadow04 · 04-22-2006, 09:54 AM

chrome

MattJ · 04-22-2006, 10:01 AM

I think anthracite would look great as I stated above. Mineral Grey seems to match anthracite the best.

Chrome is a SOB to keep clean and shiney.

Brandman316 · 04-22-2006, 10:54 AM

does anyone have pics of a mineral grey stang with the anthracite rims so i could see what it would really look like?

Definetly go for the chrome...you won't believe how many people compliment me on them...they are kind of a pain in the ass to clean but well worth it...

Ghostalker · 04-22-2006, 11:19 AM

Chrome really isnt that bad to keep clean. I clean mine everytime i wash my car... simple. I wouldnt imagine the FR500's are that much more difficult to clean that it would keep someone from buying them. Afterall, whats better than a feeling of accomplishment complimented by the shine of chrome? Damn clean chrome rims look good at night...

TEXASPAUL · 04-22-2006, 12:36 PM

chrome....for sure....

Grimmz · 04-22-2006, 01:20 PM

haha DAT A BOY!, DSG + FR500...GIGGITY... WHy not black?.... then again U don't wana look like me... Chrome or Black so i'd say Chrome, and then invest in a dremel...

Im thinking that I am going with the chrome. Those pics of Mineral GT's car are sick!! I know it may suck to clean them, but i clean my car once a week and will just clean them then. I already have the powerball drill bit thing so it shouldn't take too long to clean em. Now i just gotta find a site that has em.. MT I believe has the regular 18" chrome fr500s, but not the DD..

here is some pics of my DSG with chrome FR500's

Wow those chrome fr500s make the stang look sooo much better. Is it really sooo hard to clean those chrome rims??? I mean I would think it would be worth it. I also like the original Ford Racing centercaps. I was going to do the exact same thing!

One noobish question though.... How do I know for sure that my current tires will fit the 18" rims... Or do these rims fit most tires??

Badfish · 04-23-2006, 09:14 AM

you will need 18 inch tires for 18 inch rims, you're in luck, mustang tuning has 18 inch tires, and you have the 5% discount code
