Hi there,

this is my 1998 Mustang (V6 Auto).

Here it is what it looked like when I bought it december 2007 (crappy pics from the pre-owner)

the car had a true dual exhaust with dynomax mufflers and 3.5" tips.

..later I pulled oft the ugly 18" rims and put the waffles back on,

..few weeks later smoked headlights came in and I also installed some tokico HP blue, lowering springs, MAC catback (true dual) and the B&M hammer shifter..

December 2008 my neighbour crashed into my car:

My neighbour's insurance payed good and so I decided to paint my favorite Ford color: Dark Shadow Grey

Deathdiesel 10-29-2009 04:03 PM

Nice car, did an amazing job on the paint.

yellow02gt 10-29-2009 04:24 PM

Wow the first few pictures had me wondering, but holy crap, nice car.

Mr. Zip 10-29-2009 04:42 PM

Wow, that's the best V6 in your bodystyle I've ever seen! I would enjoy maybe 03 Cobra rims more, but the color was perfect! Great job!

Wombozi17 10-29-2009 05:51 PM

The color looks amazing! Perfect. The wheels... not for me. But not too bad. Nice stang! and welcome!

TUFF 4.6 10-29-2009 06:11 PM

Damn son, thats a hellava job!!! Welcome:t:

Dont believe I have ever seen that color on that car! Great choice!

krenogin 10-29-2009 06:27 PM

BLazE 10-29-2009 08:33 PM

I normally hate your body style, with a passion. But damn, you made that thing beastly looking.

NeedACobra 10-29-2009 09:37 PM

Wow. I think Im gonna let my neighbor hit my car. It could use a make-over.
Sick car, sir.

and this is my lighted rear sidemarker on the pic:

and these my custom made Mach 1 Style gauges with white lightning and red needles from 99-04 speedo, sorry very blurry..

Attachment 16573
Attachment 16574

gauges wasn't easy to get! first I found a gauge design shop in austria that designed the Mach 1 style for me. I had to scan my gaugefaces for them so they could do it. when I got the faces from the shop I had to do lots of things by myself. had to cut my old stock gauges to complete the new. cus the new faces only had the white parts you see in the pic. That means no turn signal control lights and the other things for handbrake and these other marks. Also need to cut the holes for the arrows and pins. After all I had to add EL-foil (that "plasma" light) to get the smooth white lightning. Also added red needles from a new edge speedo.. I spent a lot a lot of hours to get that but I love it!

also looking for a V8 swap: 4.6 Crown Vic in my 1998 3.8? (click)

Mr. Zip 10-30-2009 07:07 AM

Crap! You have done that car so right! Good luck with the swap!

x04V6x 10-30-2009 09:01 AM

DSG looks great on an sn95. You've really turned that car around. I would love to see an sn95 painted Azure Blue with a shaker and Mach 1 wheels and stripes.

Stanger Banger 10-30-2009 09:40 AM

beautiful 98 man it looked sweet with the red and black rims but the new color is awsome aswell

agreed, but you did a very nice job customizing your car and painting it. Looks nice!

the gillz 10-30-2009 12:36 PM

schweet fawking car! Dude you did more to your car in like a month than I have done in 6 years. :phatyo: I bet you turn some heads over in Deutschland, cant be too many stangs over there unless you are on an air force base

01FR500 10-30-2009 12:46 PM

What's up kev, hope your enjoying those SS brake lines.

whitestang04 10-30-2009 02:29 PM

Welcome to the board Kev. I love those gauges.

jameslf 10-30-2009 02:44 PM

What is the little red light in the rear bumper cover for?

It's a reflector, I am pretty sure they are required in Germany.

x04V6x 10-31-2009 12:27 AM

Also with all though pictures and progress you should make a cardomain. You'll get a lot of attention over there, add me if you make one.

spike_africa 10-31-2009 10:30 AM

Fantastic job on that car. Looks way better then before. And I think the rims work with your car very well and its different. Just needs some more HP now!

97stanger 10-31-2009 06:44 PM

thats some great progess bro. keep it up!

sand1303 11-01-2009 12:00 PM

Looks awsome. I was wandering why u would ruin your bumper with a reflector that looks like it was put in half assed but I guess it is prob required. I would go some grey bullitts. I think it would be the icing on the cake.
