body kits? - 4/30/2008 11:25:35 AM    slipknotrain   Posts: 3 Joined: 4/28/2008 Status: offline i have a 98 5 speed gt, its completely stock right now, i just got it miraculously from a wreck in my old 85 GT convertable, the 85 was restored to perfection.  it won second place in a car show a few years back and the restoration was done by my father.  i'm not much for the japanese imports that you see on the fast and the furious movies but i would like the 98 to ride a bit closer to the ground.  i've been looking around at different kits and the stalker type 2 caught my eye a while back and i'm liking it a lot.  sadly i am completely new to cars and know nothing about important issues with assembling bumpers and skirts to the body.  just hopefully give me some tips to look for and tell me how it looks. http://www.cruizinconcepts.com/mustang_body_kits_94-98.asp Post #: 1

There are few body kits that I think actually look good on an SN95. Just say no! _____________________________ ^ Not my car, but what mine will look like 2008 BMW E92 335i - On a boat! - Ordered 4/17/08 2003 Mustang Cobra - SOLD! 1997 Mustang GT (in reply to ssv6ponypower) Post #: 6
