Count me in!!! I'd totally buy them if they work with the trunk correctly, and if they were compatible with sequentials!

The lower version is super ugly, but the concept car is perfect. If you make that AND the concept car mirrors, I would buy both easily. The most important thing is quality here. i would easily buy this for both my mustangs even if it was 1.5 grand if it was good quality. Do not make the central strip silver though like on your red car. Paint match it instead like on the concept. They did this for a REASON and it looks much better. If you try to be original you'll ruin it. The central dial must be machined from stainless steel in my oppinion, which will surprise you how inexpensive it is to do.

I would definitely buy a set but I wonder why the aftermarket hasn't already come up with something like this. Must be too cost prohibitive.They probably can't design one where people can easily install them without some bodywork of some sort.

I love that concept stang. I think the tailights should be a bit thinner though

sooooooo........why wasn't the s197 like this in the first place?
it was. but i guess it was just too expensive to really do... and that tucked under part at the top of the lights would be a cleaning nightmare.

Its taken at a strange angle, you obviously dont know anything about the concept mustang, please stick to talking about the modern S197 instead of confusing it for a challanger, the concept is something you probably didn't check out in 05. I didn't even understand my own post when I read yours lol. sorry man.
