chin spoiler & smoked headlights

ponygrrl · 10-01-2005, 10:05 AM

picked up a chin spoiler from Ford yesterday, $57, and used my taillight paint to do my headlights.

headlights still glow at night and i can see just fine.

here's a closer pic.

Looks good. $57 bucks is also a killer price. I paid that for mine and its at dealer cost minus 10% markup. I think every mustang needs the chin spoiler with the v6/gt front bumper. Ever think about getting a grille delete?

Looking good..what wheels are you going with? The black deep dish bulletts would look sick

96TangerineBossGT · 10-01-2005, 10:36 AM

what kind of paint are you refering to regarding the taillight paint. I have never seen/heard of such a product, so I am just curious about the whole concept. Whatever it is, it seems to work well.

ponygrrl · 10-01-2005, 10:38 AM

for wheels, black FR500s deep dish in the back with some nice wide tires.

as for the paint it's called NiteShades by a company called VHT. i put 2-3 coats on and then a coat of clear.

Looks very nice...I like the dark headlights on white cars.

rebelyell · 10-01-2005, 11:18 PM

You gotta love that chin spoiler. It looks great on white. And here I go again with: Put some black stripes on that baby and she will look great.. LOL I tell everyone that for some reason.

Grimmz · 10-02-2005, 01:38 AM

you need to get a Black spoiler...i think someone on ebay is sellin them on there...omg that would look BAD ass....along with the insert black decal on the hood...ohhhh yeah

ponygrrl · 10-02-2005, 08:27 AM

well there's a guy with a white mach 1 in my neighborhood that's really nice and he has a black spoiler, i already get **** for trying to look like him haha. but i like the wingless look, always have. i have my stock spoiler still.

as far as the hood, we have a special paint at work that has a flattening agent in the clear coat so we're gonna use that to put black on the hood, i'm thinking just the scoop.
