Finally decided to post some pics!
I read posts on here alot but rarely post anything, so alot of you may not have even seen my car before. So, I thought it is about time to post some pics of my ride. Well, here is what I have changed recently. I went to DD 17" bullitts from 18" DD bullitts so I could run a 315 on the rear, put on a 2000 Cobra R hood on, 2003 Cobra mirrors painted to match, and all black fuel door. I also picked up the clear fog lights from MustangTuning which I think are just awesome. And I have moved the factory spoiler back for those who might ask. Anyways here are some pics, it was a gloomy day, but its all I got for now. Enjoy!

Right now just K&N Filter (have cold air intake, but am waiting on 75mm throttle body and plenum before I put it on), steeda underdrive pulleys, and Mac X-pipe with flowmasters. I also have Ford Racing 3.73 gears, and the car is a manual trans. I got too many buddies with 03 cobra's to mod my motor a whole lot right now cuz I know it will take a lot of work and money just to get to where they are at from the factory so I usually do motor work after exterior and interior mods. The car is a 99 35th Anniversary GT.

The hood is from HO Fibertrends. Great quality hood, great fitment, and good price. The color is the factory Chrome Yellow that came on the 99 GT's. I detail cars as my job, so the car stays buffed and waxed at all times, which keeps the color deep and rich, but the gloomy day and lighting is probably what is making the color stand out so much. Thanks for all the comments.

Someone once told me that some of the nicest and most head turning cars are just clean and simple. He said "keep is simple". I have followed that rule since I heard it. My mods are most of the time very subtle, like the 03 cobra mirrors, but yet it makes a nice difference, and a lot of you have noticed and even commented on it. It just proves that it works, so that is my philosophy with appearance mods. And again, thanks for the comments, I didn't think I would get this many responses to the pics.

Very nice and clean look. And damn you were right HO Fibertrends does have good prices $369 for the R hood! How was the fit, did you have to make any big adjustments or was it a good fit off the bat?

Well, the fuel door come from www.kooltang.com. I think maybe they are a new company, b/c all they have at this point is fuel doors, but it is a very good quality door.
No window tint b/c i am very picky about bubbles especially around the dot matrix at the top of the back window, I would pick the tint job apart, so I just haven't had it done.
The HO Fibertrends hood fit awesome. I didn't have to mod the hood any for fitment, very good quality hood!

Actually about the tint. A friend of mine has a 01 SS and the place he got it tinted at actually has a paint that matches the rest of the black on the window. They painted over his dots with it and it looks factory. I just don't know what Kind of paint it was or where to get it.
And on that hood.....good to know, that place sells it $100 cheaper than the place I was going to get it from!!!
