I am looking for your opinion.
I'm bored with the dreary looking head/tail lights on my '88 LX 5.0 Hatchback. So I have ventured into the aftermarket for alternatives...My question is, has any one seen or setup a '87-'93 Mustang with the front and rear Alteeza Euro setup? If so, what's your take on it? And if you have other options, I would appreciate your generosity.
My baby(Original Owner) is Starburst Red, 5 Spoke Rims, GT-500 Hood, Saleen side skirts, rear valance, Razzi Front Spoiler and Magnaflow Exhaust with Polished Tips...I am finding it tough to visualize, my guess is that they will enhance the appearance, but I may be wrong...As I usually am.

on the fox body style i personally feel that the euros look nice, and not many people have them (on stangs), i would say that with your set up they would enhance the rear end visual, another option would be clear tail lights, i saw an 91 gt yesterday with some and it looked sharp with the bright red paint, warning: just my personal opinion!

LLOYD,
Is this your opinion as a purist? Or are you basing this on a prsonal experience?
You have me thinking now :| Does anyone know of a link with the Mustang/Alteeza setup?
%^##*@...were it not for LLoyd's popularity amongst the masses I would be all over the Alteeza. Now I stand exactly where I stood prior to the original post. UNSURE.
what llyod said... the euros on a fox.. worst thing u can do.. they look like alien eys or something stupid... they r awfull...just put clear corners on the front and maybe clear tails.... DO NOT PUT EUROS on the rear... they suck...so god awfully ugly....

Sorry, Altezza and Mustang are oxymorons. They have no business on a Mustang IMO. Leave the ricey taillights to those who think they'll actually add horsepower.

Just my very humble $.02
How true this is.
Add HP, LMAO!!!!
And about the Borla, It sounds good. Performance wise, I really couldnt tell you, it was on the Stang when I bought it. SO I dont know Stock before the CatBack. I also dont know how it stacks up to Flowmasters or any other. I may still switch to Flowmasters because it is the choice of many, and if I did have stock, I would go straight for the Flowmasters. One better thing with Borla is, its all stainless steel. But expensive, I wouldnt spend the $650 on it. SO Ill get back to ya on that, if I switch out to the Flowmasters. Hell , I maybe able to make some money or come out even on the switch, if I cant get someone to buy my Borla system.

Amen. Would you rather look fast (I don't know how altezza's will do that) or BE fast? That's the problems with riceboys nowadays, they'd rather look fast.
