I just thought I would introduce myself. I apologize for not doing that earlier and just roll in here with questions.

I have a 2004 V6. The only mod I have at the moment are reverse glow gauges but I have a lot of plans for her. I dubbed her "Elle" :) and here's a few pics:

Welcome to the boards, nice clean car. I've got to ask what some of the mods you want to do it are though..

welcome to the forums. a friend of mine has a 2002 V6 and is putting down some impressive numbers. he pretty much avoided the mods that don't make any HP and went straight for the blower.

Nice stang! just like mine..haha except the gold-side stripes and mine's a torch red...but cool man!

New Edge Mustang 10-11-2008 06:58 PM

Thank You!
 
Thanks for the warm welcome guys. There's a lot of great looking Mustangs on here.

KING: Mostly cosmetic at the moment. I'm thinking of placing aftermarket fog lights, yellow caliper paint, FR500 steering wheel, Halo projector headlights, Bullit pedels, 17" or 18" Bullit rims, stainless steel bumper insterts, windshield decal, etc. I haven't thought much about HP mods yet. I am going to install a CAI and aftermarket exhausts on her though.

Why yellow?

Stephen4036 10-11-2008 09:44 PM

actually yellow on red might look cool, if u dont mind it looking dirty white cali's on red car might look sick.

King 10-11-2008 10:35 PM

I'm with Stephen, white on red might look good. Possibly better than yellow on red, but that's just my opinion.

New Edge Mustang 10-12-2008 01:56 PM

That's a hard color to find over here. Most of the places I go to have either red, yellow or black paint. Any suggestions (like online) as to where I can find white?

truth at it's best.

I suggest this to almost all mustang owners. im sorry but N/a is somewhat of a joke for mustangs in general.

perfect example is the 05+ GT's. spend thousands N/A to get 350-375rwhp doing everything you can. or for the same money strap a procharger to it and make 450-475rwhp.

if you don't have the money though that is understandable. start with the bolt-ons that make a difference.

-RR's
-T-lock/Gears
-American muscle CAI
-25% UDP

after all these get a hand held tuner.

exhaust will make a difference on a v8, almost nothing at all on a v6 till you flow more air by the things above.

DupliColor maybe? Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen white caliper paint anywhere before.

Very Nice Stang man!! Yellow on red looks pretty good. But I value your opinions. I was thinking of either Black, Silver or Yellow. What do you think?

spike_africa 10-14-2008 06:51 AM

I'm not a fan of bright calipers unless they came like that from where you got them like Brembo's willwoods etc... so for me mine are painted with high temp black paint just so they dont look like crap.

staleygreg 10-14-2008 10:22 AM

Very nice pictures here. I just picked up my new mustang 3 weeks ago and shes only got 22,000 miles. =D So happy.

staleygreg 10-14-2008 10:22 AM
