Default Body kit

I am getting this at cost...what do you think?
I am looking for something over the top...
I will be getting the front painted 2 tone w/carbon fiber inserts...


The black gloss paint is from fog to fog w/carbon wrapped grille slots in center...

The lower part will have a black mesh covering it so you wont see big gap.

The side skirts I may bot use as they might cover C stripe.
Be honest w/opinions...all I have to do is paint and mount

For the rear I would get the heritage square exhaust tips....

Yea, that's the Stallion kit. I am not feeling the grill on that one. You can get them fairly cheap on the internet.
It's your car, if you like it go for it :>)

I would be getting this for almost nothing
W/the front 2 tone and carboned out I was thinking it would be original
But hey I want as many honest opinions as possible, I dont want to go backwards in the construction of this car of mine...

The grille is a bit much. Almost loses the mustang appearance. But the rest of the mods are cool.

you NEED to have an intercooler with that lower grill to show off. without it i feel it may look naked. But its unique!

Good point. My car is NA. It looks a little funny below the front bumper.

I think the C stripes should stay.

Default Body mods..

Front grill doesn't do anything for me.
.
After it, " looks the part ", are there any plans for under the hood upgrades, so it can, " act the part " ??

I am working on the muscle part as well
alot of negotiating..many disappointments (no Hot Wheels in future) but some new developments (caliper covers)
and definitely a pro-will be -charging (hopefully) motor advancements in the new year.
You know me..I say its gonna happen, usually it does..
But the economy has made some sponsors back step on their promises made to me.
BaySpeed is treating me right after all, so i should return the favor.
Can't say the same about true fiber in my diet.

Mark
