Never posted Pics of drop and 18x10 FR's

01FR500 · 05-01-2008, 04:43 PM

I figured I would post some pictures of my car since I dont remember the last time I have, it was before the new rear rims and springs. What do I need? What should I change? Some of the pictures are without the front emblem and wing. Better with the front emblem our without, with the wing or without? Should I remove the Iso's. Also, I made one difference in one of the pictures in photoshop, see if you can spot it, and I'm not talking about blanking out my liscnse plate.

Looks good man. Personally i like the look of the wingless better. I dont know what to think about the fire pony, doesnt go along with anything else. You definatly need one though, if not the flame then the chrome pony. Ive always like the skeleton pony...

01FR500 · 05-01-2008, 05:16 PM

I thought about using the stock pony and paint it flat or satin black, but I would need a way to mount it since the flame pony is stuck to that mount bracket. I like the wingless look too but since I'd have holes I don't know, I couldn't rock it like that all the time.

keep the wing looks better imo.

Ghostalker · 05-01-2008, 05:54 PM

Lookin good man! Sexy hood and nice rims too!
That stance is great overall, good choice in springs etc.

FlawlessEnvy · 05-01-2008, 06:08 PM

Looks great, id say no emblem. or get a silver one. Did you photoshop the sky in the one picture? made the sky darker?

WNRacing · 05-01-2008, 06:13 PM

Looks great without the wing, one of the few that can pull it off well!

Great job on the car overall, I think that a flat black pony would be sweet, but definitely don't paint over the one you already have.

The only thing I might change would be the gas door, seems a little out of place. Maybe a little too much silver. I think if you stick without the wing that bullitt side scoops would look killer, keep it more sleek and maybe flow a little better.

Overall though, A+ !

Some of the pictures were taken on a different day than the others, cloudier one day, sunnier the next.

Thanks for all the comments of approval, lets me know I'm still headed in the right direction.

01FR500 · 05-01-2008, 06:17 PM

Wow, I really like the look of the black fuel door, the second one the most, good job on thoes. I will seriously consider painting it now. Gloss, Satin, or flat?

WNRacing · 05-01-2008, 06:19 PM

Oh yeah, and if you're looking for small mods I'd say polishing or painting your tank straps silver/ chrome would look great with your scheme. Something like this.

Definitely Satin or Gloss. I'd lean more towards Satin, keep it a little unique!

wow, unique and cool idea, definitely cleans up the rear.. every once in awhile I spray the tank with tire cleaner/shine to spruce her up, but cleaning up the straps would be nice

mustangvsix · 05-01-2008, 07:49 PM

looks great man! I would do the fuel door up black, to match the car, with the screws silver; oh and get just a regular pony for the grill, I am not a huge fan of the flame one, but just get one/keep one in there for sure.

foncarelli · 05-01-2008, 08:40 PM

Looks better wingless. And try a chromed pony. I am the only one that can pull off the flaming one. lol

Steeda97 · 05-01-2008, 10:55 PM

wing on. chrome pony.

Steeda21 · 05-02-2008, 10:50 PM

no fogs? or did you black them out

Yeah no fog lights, the car has some some odd things, like no side badges and no mufflers. But I'm guessing no foglights becuase the bumper was replaced once and the fogs wern't put back in. It has the connections though, Plan is to get some smoked one from AM sometime.

I will have to think about polishing the fuel straps, I am really trying to get away from the bling. I would rather have black rims but since I bought chrome ones years ago I have just stuck with it. I think they look good and I should probably just go ahead and do it since I have SS bumper inserts and I won't be able to really black my car out how I'd like. Anyone have steps of how to do it.

scares me to think there's a sunroof on such a nice car...

Yeah I know some people are sunfroof haters. I love my sunroof though, I hate convertables and would never want one but I like to drive with the windows down. The sunroof is all power, doesn't leak (years from now we shall see if that holds true), and blends nicely with the car since it is black.

The difference that I made in photoshop is between the first picture and the last. The state inspection, registration, and school parking sticker is gone.

Car looks freakin' awesome man! Good job on it!
