Default 1998 Mustang

What's going on everyone?









The car orignally was a deep Hunter Green, but we have painted it a Burnt Orange witch gives it an amazing look during the summer. 18" 9x10.5 American Racing Polished Aluminum Rims, Monster Hood, Full Invader Body Kit w/ Mesh Grill, and I forget the name of the spoiler. Neon Red lights on the bottom LR sides of the car, black Mustang logo on the back window, and custom sound system.

Nothing major has been done to the car mechanically except for a brand new transmission and true dual exhaust straight back from the manifold, so it sounds like a monster. It's only a V6 3.5, but I'm looking into swapping the engine and other things to drastically improve performance.

I've never been a big car guy, but with what I'm driving that needs to change and quick. Any advice you guys got on improving the performance and look of the car, I'm all ears!

Take off that body kit. It looks ridiculous. If you want more power, it would probably be best to sell and get a new edge gt.

I can appreciate the hard work man, but the car is just not my taste. I agree with the one of the posts above in that it would probably be more economical to purchase a GT rather than swap a GT motor in.

I'm new to the forum and just browsing the pictures and enjoying the nice looking rides. I guess it was just a matter of time until I ran across one of these "shopping carts"..... nice spoiler.
