Very nice.....One suggestion though. Black out the GT fender emblems, or better yet spray some pony emblems and throw them on there. I think it would look better given the rest of your mostly blacked out and clean theme.
Ok.. I'll try and get a response to everyone in here.. LOL

It came free with the blower, and I needed a frame.

Not yet, it's raining today, but I promise to get better (daylight) pics up ASAP.

ORIGINAL: Boozshey What are you covering the taillights with?
They are the vinyl overlays from... Moss Mustang maybe? Stangmods? I forget.. Anyway, then I put the AVS tinted slotted covers over that (after I scraped the AVS logo off with an exacto knife, of course).

A quick question though, where are your windshield washer nozzles??? I was checking out your stripes. They look like 10 inchers with a 2 inch gap. That would put your nozzles inside the striped area...SO WHERE ARE THEY MAN???
Thanks! They are flat black though, not ghost. But the windshield washer nozzles - they went tits-up, same as the antenna. And yes, 10" on 2".

One minor detail missed is the black mirror covers.
I thought about that, but the factory finish on them actually goes well with the flat black of the stripes, so I decided to leave it.
TO ALL OF YOU WHO SAID IT LOOKS GOOD - Thank you!!! I didn't want to quote/reply to each individual one, there were so many, but thank you all!! And like I said, I promise to have better shots of it up as soon as the weather breaks.
Car Looks awesome!! Can't wait to see some day light pics!!

Beautiful job. I have no idea why Ford used those crappy brake calipers. Mine rust up everytime the car sees any moisture. Didn't they realize that the first thing folks would do is install larger aftermarket wheels??? Cost cutting I guess...
Exx your car looks incredible man!!! Im the guy that was asking about the exhaust thanks for the info on it. Ill bet it sounds as good as it looks. Did you do a mid pipe at all or is it still to loud with the stock mids and cats? anyway thanks much bud.
Is that factory Ford black? What detailing products did you use? Paint looks killer.
Yes, factory black. In those pics, it hadn't been detailed yet, but a considerable portion of the car had been rubbed out/repainted by the detail shop. Driver's quarterpanel (just rubbed), passenger fender, hood, tonneau covers, convertible bar (all painted)..
The rest of it was just cleaned up by the bodyshop. There's not even any wax on it. Gotta wait 60-90 days. According to the bodyshop, if the car lived outside it would be faster, but being that it's kept out of the sun, they said don't wax it until then, gotta let the paint finish breathing before I seal it up.
And yes, the brakes NEED to be changed.. I didn't have time before this show, but it's definitely on my to-do list for this season. I also need some different dampers, this thing rides like a sherman tank now, LOTS of cowl shake..
Hulkin - still factory manifolds and mid-pipe. And it's STUPID loud.. When I was coming out of downtown between those big buildings (it was a Sunday evening, no traffic), the echo was almost deafening.. I know I scared at least a few people my idling up on them and then *VROOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*!!!
