as i said i have the gas tank and (just removed the doorhandle carbon as it was coming off and looked trashy) door handle wrapped in carbon fiber. I'm thinking about doing (http://www.americanmuscle.com/matteb...ood-decal.html) in carbon fiber as well. Along with the MUSTANG etching on the rear bumper. In a while (college student, broke) I wanna possibly drop a supercharger in it as well(along with everything required to do that). Or swap to a v8. I'm not 100% sure yet though. Any thoughts?

P.S. I have a whole roll of carbon fiber as my brother deals in it. So I'm trying different things with it.

I'll tell you right now, no sense in supercharging it. Just save for a V8 swap, or drive it till the wheels fall off and buy something awesome once you're out of college. When I was in college, I didn't have a nice car like that, but man, I spent a lot of money on partying, booze, and rubber...I mean...education and books...and learning stuff....

You may want to look into lowering springs next to get rid of the dump truck look. Also the V8 isnt everything its cracked up to be, trust me on this. I have more fun in my sixxer than I do in the GT. If done right your six will be just as fast or faster than the v8 cars. Supersixmotorsports has a v6 that runs mid 10s N/A and there are alot of FI v8 cars that struggle to do that.

That's a good point. I'm in orlando and don't even listen to the radio cause there is no good stations at all. So why bother keeping it or even getting something to replace it lol.

Also something I was hoping to do. Don't wanna drop it to the ground but wouldnt mind dropping it a couple inches. its pretty much gaping. lol. And yea I've heard that. It's not as fast right now but later on, if taken care of (which of course I'm going to) (note: only has like 90k miles on it, which is pretty decent for 12 years old.) i plan on making it as fast as I can.
