Hi guys, I haven't been checking in since we started our project vehicle but it is done, the molds are finished and we are now in production. We offer an Eleanor Style Body Kit that allows you to use the 2010 and up front end with the 2005-2009 vehicle. We are just setting up the website but I thought I would show guys the demo car. The car is 2005 Mustang GT with our version of the Eleanor body kit. We are working on a new design for the actual side exhaust that works better with lowered vehicles. The kit is our EG body kit which uses our conversion fenders and complete 2010 and up EG front end. All the parts are made using aerospace epoxy resins. We were going to use polyurethane but found the problems with paint adhesion were too much of an issue to manufacture our kits that way. The paint is PPG Lamborghini Pearl Metallic White with Custom Pearl Metallic Blue stripes and some pretty insane airbrushed artwork.

Here is the link to our website for more photos and info:

Looks really good, fit and finish appear to be flawless. I really like the 10+ front end on the 05, very cool.

I checked out the rest of the pics on your site and your prices for the body kits seem to be pretty good; hope you are very successful in selling them. Not sure you will get what you are asking for the test fit car though.

Thanks VB, Yeah, I don't think the car will get that price either I kinda priced it high so I could hang onto it but if someone wants it we could work something out. We just finished it, $18k went into the paint and interior alone so needless to say I'm in no hurry to sell, Eventually I want to put a supercharged coyote engine in this car then at that point I would think it would validate the price I'm asking or if someone wants to purchase it that option is available to them also. This car is work in progress so I will definately be posting updates as we make them.

front looks a little too busy for me, and not too into ducktail spoilers. Not hating, just my .02. I'll give you credit though, that is incredibly unique and i give you props for doing this! not saying it looks bad at all, just not my thing. with that being said cool stripes, i really like em!

Is that a pearl paint? Looks good. The stripes I can see a lot of work went into those.

Edit:
Re-read and I see it is a Lamborghini pearl paint

best of both worlds for those who have mustangs they love and want the new front end. Also great for those of us who are looking into our first mustang, and cost wise like the old body style but love the look of the current bodies.

either way, tempting
