these are the first pictures took that weren't taken by an iPhone.

How'd I do?

I think I'm close to done with appearance things. Maybe a new hood or 1/4 or ducktail or 1/4 window scoops. Let me know any input on either the car or my nonexistent photography skillz.

Here's the rest...

They look really good! Love the wheels and their red accents.

Just a quick question, how hard was the caliper painting? Did you pop them off and sand them or was it just a quick duplicolor brush job?

Either way, it looks great. All you need is a nice little drop and I'd say it's one of the cleanest stangs I've ever seen.

Oh my, I promised myself I would be good...even after the "old news" remark

Car looks good bro. A suggestion if I may..
When taking pictures of the front and cutting the wheels...cut them so the rim, not the rubber is facing the camera (see my sig).

Car looks good, wheels look great, just practice your photography with different settings, you are doing fine.

I wasn't a fan of T/A rings even when they were popular.

And I've never really understood the fender stripes. Other than that, not bad.

Satin silver with some black is always tasteful

I thought about going with headlight splitters once, but decided against and went with tint.
I'll probably also be painting my calipers from black to red to match the red accent on my 4.0 emblem..


paint your GT emblems black!

like the hash marks to, guessing they're the 1" from AM?
mine are 4" Saleens.

Not bad for the first time! Decent choice for a background. Lighting wasn't ideal which gave you some pretty pronounced shadows. The wheel direction tip from mayo is spot on. What kind of camera did you use? Car looks great!
