haha, so true.



With everything said aside, cars not BAD, just needs some appearance work. The body kit parts need to be painted... end of story. If you do that, the car wont look half bad at all. everything will then flow together pretty nicely. Only think I don't like about the interior are the flame gauges. nice seats.

not bad car man, but def is not "finished" in the appearance section.

If you just got different front and rear bumpers, different side skirts, painted them to match the car, cleaned it, got rid of the yellow interior, and got rid of the windshield banner you'd be doing okay.

alright guys. will not mention cobra anymore haha. but i have been thinking of painting it somethin close to the new dark red on the next gen. mustang, or just painting it all black.

edit: and does anyone know where to get better looking gauges? the green gets really annoying at night, and i dont like the flames

Exterior
Go for one color, either yellow (match the seats) or black
Get rid of the rice lights, heres my how to on taillight tint since you said you were considering it http://mustangforums.com/forum/4-6l-...eet-style.html if anything it'll show you how to break them down for spray.

Interior
Drop the yellow highlights and go back to black
Get either white face or black face gauges, the flames are for flaming fags


All in all you have a decent project car, few touch ups and it'll look good. After that its making it run like a bat outta hell

Idk if you wany my opinion lol, but I would take the sticker off the window and return the interior to stock, maybe leave the seats in but get rid of the yellow crap and remove the ricey neon lights. The SVT wheels will look awesome man but get those bumpers painted! Your going to love that car I had a 96 GT but I sold it because it was burning oil, good thing because I love my Mach 1 even more lol.

Here is my old 96 GT


And my new Baby (Shes 2 months old lol)
