Lowering springs are iffy, but wheels for sure. I figure I will wait until next spring for those though, since the winter weather is coming soon, haha... Michigan roads not always the best for lowered cars, but they are an optioin.

Agreed. I have some ideas on changing it a bit. I am thinking of making a lot of the tan black (the vinyl and plastic) to change it and maybe give it more contrast. The seats and carpet are in great shape though, so need to change or replace.... Plus black with tan accents should be pretty cool.... (what you all think?)

i dont know, what do you think?




that was one of the color options on the 94s. i personally like an all black interior the best.

thanks for the pic 945Lstang. I actually like it (compared to what I have). I think if I did it, there would be more black, or another dark color... but that does help. And I would prefer all black as well, but no point replacing the seats and all just yet. Mine as well spend my money on other things!!

TRADE MY Mach 1 HOOD + scoop set up for easy GT install (attached, no intake system necessary, unless you want it) for a COWL hood and maybe STOCK + CASH (but probably not). The hood is painted silver, in great shape, does need a color sand, but thats no biggie. Would prefer a swap for a silver one, but will consider many options. Need to trade due to changed plan on this car. RTP/Greensboro/Charlotte

Well here is a quick list, not a full list. I am still debating on a lot of things, so nothing is set in stone. But I know you guys will have advice and feedback on my ideas, so here ya go.

-exhaust (h and cat back, maybe headers)
-intake
-tune
-gears (not sure on ratio yet)
-custom interior work
-new stereo, speakers, and maybe a small sub or two (nothing crazy, just some extra low end for the music)
-cowl hood, maybe 2" or so
-remove the spoiler
-custom striping (still working on design)
maybe a front lip or fascia, skirts and rear bumper cover (granted i find one i like...)
-def some staggered 18 or 19 inch wheels
-sequential tail light kit
-led third brake light (keeping stock tails)

thats all i can think of right now. what do ya think?

Dont go bigger than 18" for wheels. I suggest 18's all around and it looks and performs great. Front bumpers...you got the 01 cobra, 03 cobra, roush, saleen, and cobra r and those are pretty much the only ones accepted as not rice on the forums. Cowl hood=sexy as heck. Stereo can be good just dont rice it out with tv's and stuff. Everyone likes to cruise to some good quality sound. Gears...either 4.10's or 3.73's. I got 4.10's and they are awesome. Would never go with 3.73's except for forced induction. I would definitely do longtube headers with your exhaust. H pipes are more monotone and more of a hum with a stock cams and doesnt have much character. And they sound deeper. X pipes are more racecar sounding and they have more character in my opinion. They are also louder. And you'll probably want cats for emissions. And then catback really all depends on how loud you wanna go and what type of noise you wanna make. Hope this rant helps
