Default Just put on Xenon side skirts to my GT500 conversion.

I had my body shop paint them along with the hood, but I didn't get around to putting them on until today. The kit brings another piece that goes on the door, but I opted out of them. I like how it looks without them. It gives it and more aggresive look, I think. The pics do it little justice, so I'm a show some before-and-after pics. I like these skirts because they follow the factory lines fairly well.

After:

That looks just awesome. That's the thing I like about our stangs...you can mix and match easily.

I think I would have put the door pieces on, but that's just me. It looks WAY better than stock. Great choice.

The other pieces are easily installed.......can't say I haven't thought about it. I may just slap them on to see what they look like, but I'm sure I won't keep them on. I just can't wait for some wheels. That's what's really going to offset the car.

Very nice, that looks much better. Is the rear bumper next? -Joe

Yup......I like the rear valance made by Street Scene. I'm going to go with that, and I also want the quarter panel scoops. The other must-have is the ducktail spoiler (I don't care much for the one on the car now), and some 20" offset wheels. I plan to have everything on the car by the end of June. Then, I will focus on the performance side more.

Awesome! I considered doing something very similar if the side exhaust ever gets too annoying. The thing is I REALLY love the side exhaust and am willing to deal with the inconveniences for a while. All it will take is 1 crunch though and it will be plan B. -Joe

Thanks for the compliments......I post up new pics anytime I change a screw; more to come soon. Going back and forth with a few sellers trying to see what wheels I'm going to go with.

JBailer, the side exhaust looks awesome. What inconveniences do you mean? I assume it louder, and you have to be careful with speed-bump and angle yourself to go through angled driveways.......is there something else? Your car looks sick.......
