I recently had to change the battery on my stang. It was then I realized that the battery looks horrible. I did a search but found no way to dress up the battery, other than a big piece of aluminum looking cover.

Has anyone does anything to dress up teh battery ?//

Shelby sells a nice looking small handle support that goes across the top, with or without the Shelby logo, check their website

Replace it with a nice looking Optima RedTop to change
the look of the motorcraft black battery.
Optima also makes cool looking hold downs for their batteries.

Or better yet, get the appearance AND added performance
in one big swoop and relocate it to over the passengers
side rear tire in the trunk, FTW.

don't know where the camera is, prolly wife has it somewhere, but I snatched up 2 pics with my cell phone. Not great pics by any means, but you will get the idea.

there are covers made by cal pony, and you can get them from americanmuscle.com
I paid 89 bucks for them I think.. Def, worth it though

I'll get better pics tomorrow if you need though

I'm going the Optima red top route soon with my battery. I don't like the painted covers and I think the shelby covers draws too much attention to the battery. You just want it to blend in, not stand out.

I replaced mine with an Optima Red Top. Looks much better.

Do you have the part number of the Optima you have? They make a few different sizes

I believe it was group 40R.
