I already have custom flames there.


Going to get a new hood soon though. I will be adding something black to the new hood.

I am looking at the Cervini C-series hood for the 10-12's. I am thinking of getting the top of the "bump" painted black.

are you going to get any other body kit parts to go with it? i saw a mustang with a huge front end but it looked terrible because of the rest of the body being stock

I am looking into replacing my V6 front with the GT front bumper and adding the GT/CS lower valance and get it painted body color. I have the rear bumper already as in pictures below and the rocker panels I am keeping my painted stockers.

Default Another option for wheels

Folks,

So far, the AM GT500 wheels and tires package is still heading the list.

Went to a local chain shop today, and was pointed to a new wheel that just came out. They're the Vertini Monaco wheels...concave design..split 5 spoke

Here's the machined black ones...

http://www.vertiniwheels.com/images/...naco-black.htm

The wheels look nice..except for lettering in the lip which is a turn off..the sales guy was recommending 20"...looks similar to the GT500..let me know what you guys think...I think for the price, the AM GT500's are still the one i like best...

thanks

imo they look like stock Mercedes sedan wheels, and the lettering is disgusting
i dont think they would work too well on a muscle car either

youre probably better off with the gt500s as these are really expensive for a weird look
