You need chin spoiler, springs, shorty antenna, smoked headlights.

Nice wheels and welcome to MB :D

Don't forget grille delete!


Clean car!

nice stang man!

nice car man love the wheels!

Damn give the poor guy a break, its his/her 1st car.

Looks snazzy so far!

looks good so far.

Looks real good. Nice 1st car too. take care of her.. I got the same tires (sumitomos) from tire rack this summer. I love em, although I haven't layed down any 50 ft black marks with them yet!! But so far they on par with the goodyears that came stock on mine.. ;)

lol +1...

You need some exhaust parts, a blower, etc...lol jk

Looks good man..:)

You read my mind!
I'm going to get a shorty antenna and lowering springs in the near future. I personally don't like the after market look of smoked headlights, I'm going to get projector headlights instead.

Other things I've done to the car include new speakers (Polk), dual exhaust (Jegs kit), and a cold air intake (ebay).

Check out the customer product images on American Muscle. :P

Here's a picture of the dual exhaust I got from Jegs. I'm thinking of replacing the mufflers that came with the kit with some flowmaster 40 series, but don't know if it would be worth it.
You can see me hunched over sitting on my ass taking the picture in the bumper. lol

dont get projector headlights there ugly imo.

Nice car! Mine is the same color. :breakdancesmilie:

those will look even more aftermarket than smoked stockers.

ahhh!!! painting the calipers, one of the best "do-it-yourself-for-a-cheap-price-because it-makes-your-wheels-stand-out-more-and-makes-your-car-look-different" mod!!!:D nice car!

I like it. Always been a fan of mach wheels. Get some springs and you'll be set :smokin:

I love that color. Nice stang

Just put another $150 into the car.

-New Third Brake Light. (Mine was all faded and scratched up on the top)

Now all I have left is the expensive things like new mufflers and lowering springs. Paying for the install labor on both is really gonna suck.

You can do the springs yourself, not hard to do at all.

I was told that it is very dangerous to install springs because they are installed under pressure or some junk like that, so it's best to let a professional handle it. Now I don't know if that's true. Anyone done it before?

sure lots of us have done it. the trick to doing springs is putting a floor jack under the control arms that way you can slowly release the spring tension.

nice car BTW BAB FTMFW!!!!

really dig the color, nice car

Nice car,love the wheels. Welcome

What size did you end up going with?

Nice ride mang !!! Excellent choice on wheels, you don't many folks out there with them on, CHROME MACH RIMS FTMFW !!!!!!!!

They're 17x9s with 275/40-17 Sumitomo HTR Z IIs

I get a little rubbing when I max my turn radius, but barley.

great choice.

Next time you need tires, go with 255's on the front and it wouldn't rub.

I am getting a set of Falken's in a couple of weeks of the same size too!
