You're illegally parked.

Thanks Jaybe. I'm really not relieved haha. I loved re-evaluating future mod plans and actually purchasing parts and seeing the big change each time. However, I know it's for the best. If I keep saving up and keep this car in good working order, I'll have a huge chunk if not all of a new mustang payed off upon purchase.

The goodyear tires don't last nearly long enough as I wish they would've. They only last about 20000 miles if you're careful and I'm running them past that and definitely not too safe in wet weather. Lowering springs reduces body roll a ton and I notice that it's a lot easier to take corners. Be careful on speedbumps and road dips though because it can toss you around in the cabin haha

The cop who was stalking in the garage didn't seem to care all that much.

Mad, what stripes are those? Width and purchased from where? I really like them. Thinking about black ones that size on my silver ride.

Thanks Red!

808, I purchased the stripes from a local shop in Tampa originally, cut from a roll. 10" stripes with a 1/2" gap and 1/2" skinny stripes. Then after the accident in June I paid a little more and had Pascal paint the stripes on. Came out 10x better than the stripes! I love black on silver, I think it'd really look good on your car.

Cool. So that is the size you had painted on? What did he charge for it? My wheels are gloss black, so I'm thinking glossy instead of flat black. To me the wider stripes with the tight pinstripe look amazing.

808, PM sent. I opted for the thin stripes hugging the main stripes just because I thought it looked better and a little more "custom" than just flat stripes.
