Well I just got done installing my Mach 1 grill delete, custom pony, and removing the air silencer on my weekend driver, aka, moms car lol. Anyways, her car and my car are a little dirty, so disreguard that, but let me know what you think. I still have to install her SS inserts when they come, as well as her custom license plate cover when her license plate comes in. I'd have mine on in my pic had my $60 freeking dollar custom MGW cover didn't go bye bye last week when my whole license plate assembly broke off somewhere between my house and New Orleans, had to be two and a half hours late to work because I had to go to the DMV and get a new license plate, then come home and buy another MGW cover, so it will be back on soon. Hopefully in my next pics I'll have my Saleen side skirts on and custom fender flares. I'm gonna try to get both painted this week, and, if I'm lucky, installed.

Also, after removing the air silencer and having it coupled with the K&N, I noticed the car got a little more responsive down low, nothing big by any means what so ever, but there was a litte something there that wasn't before. Anywho I took the car out for it's first "straight away challenge". OK, there is a strip of road that's just under a 1/4 mile long, however, due to the fact that the road turns both into, and out of this slightly shorter than 1/4 mile straight away, it's impossible to run the 1/4, but you can still have fun with it. Rules are simple, pull into the straight away at 15-20 (works better at 15), and run till you "feel" it's time to break before having to turn (usually just over 3/4 the way through), person with the fastest MPH reading wins. For reference, my old 98 struggled to break 80 MPH, and that was running extremely dangerously to the end and having just enough time to break and make a 75 degree turn at around 45 MPH. I took this car up to 80 MPH with ease, could of probably pushed it up a hair more if I was really daring, but don't want to do that just yet. Not bad, but Salena is still the fastest, by far, comming in at 92 MPH.

Pfft, that car is getting the Cobra Rs when I get something else for my 5.0. I'm split between Saleens and 03 Cobras.

Like I said, black car gets yellow cars rims when yellow car gets new rims because black car is not intended for show, and I'm cheap and rims are expensive lol.

I think it needs some lowering springs before anything. Please tell me you had it sitting on jackstands. lol That thing sits so high. I am glad that mine is lowered... It definitely needs lowered if you are going to put those 17's on it.

Wells are drop are on my yellow car lol.

Drove the thing to and from school today and my only complaint is.............it's slow as balls. Sorry, once I got used to Salena, there's not too much that feels right again, on the plus side the damn thing gets excellent gas millage, she got around 26 MPG upon fill up today, and that was with me giving it some "gas" every now and then, the damn 5.0 is lucky to get 22, but it also has over a 100 more rwhp.

That pesky little V6!! Mine is so much better. And much louder. So bite me.

[/seniority complex off]

So do I still get your headlights when you get the clear corners?

AND CHANGE THE RIMS!!!
