I was having a problem with getting the pictures small enoughto post.They seem to have gotten too small. Do you have any tips on doing that? I just have a HP photo program that came with my printer.

I think the Stang roof is low enough already, but you don't have a bad idea at all with the concept. I think the WRXs, EVOs and a few other cars would look better with a lowered roofline. JMO, but the only thing that urks me about those cars is that the roof looks like it's 2 feet above the drivers head. Did you just cut the factory glass and reuse it?

The tempered door glass can't be cut so I tilted it back to match the new roofline and then blocked the track so it couldn't go to high. I messing around on my computer trying to get the pics the right size. Thanks to the other guy for his help, I'll try that.

Just out of curiosity, what would you charge to do this to a mustang?

Thanks to AEREON for the photobucket suggestion. I spent about 200 hours from start to finish. Thats 8 grand at a 40$/hour rate. It was the kind of project I've wanted to do for a while. Bolt on body kits look cool, but are very common compared to something like this. Everyone has their opinion of course, but hopefully I can find people who might like it enough to put out that kind of cash. That was the point of joining the forum for me. I wanted to get opinions from real Mustang fans to tell me whether it's a good thing or that I'm crazy.
