Default FINISHED SHAVED WINDOWS

hey guys, i couldn't decide what kind of scoops i wanted to go with to cover the rear quarter windows so i decided to shave them. the whole process took about 3-4 hours of work time. let me know what you guys think. while i'm at it i'm in the process of shaving the bumper lines and the side marker lights too. i just wanted to do something different.

WOW Thats actually pretty cool!!
The shaved marker lights are going to look good as well. Are you doing the front markers?
A member here photoshopped his sig to shave the front markers and it looked awesome!

Can't wait to see the finished pics. [sm=smiley20.gif]

Sorry, should have clarified. I meant the front turn signals. I know its probaly against the law to remove/block them, it was just pretty cool to see what the front bumper looks like with a nice smooth front.

yeah, no turn signals would pretty much get my car crushed! also i was thinking about shaving the bottom opening in the front of the v6 grille. does it really provide that much air to keep your engine cool?

EDIT: plus i am going to shave the license plate indentation in the front bumper. my whole goal is to shave everything that is a hole or has a line in it that is not needed for daily function. i wanna get the car as smooth as possible.

Hmm don't know about that one. I realize the upper grille is quite large already, I would just hate to hear that your engine is getting warm from lack of air. Since you're on a shaving spree lol, ever consider touching up the front bumper where Ford stamped a license plate mold? (Unless you're in a state that needs one [:'(])
