The exhaust looks weird because the lower part of the rear fascia isn't installed yet.

Not gonna do any "body" modifying but I can tell you right now I like the idea of getting to 500hp on just a motor without the aid of an SC so I will definitely be doing a CAI, LT's, and a tune............I think that would be real close to my goal of 500hp NA.

I love big flares and those look fabulous. You guys missed one of the most exciting periods in motor racing. The IMSA and touring car racing of the 70s and 80s. Big flares eventually gave way to box flares. But the cars were eventually banned for being too fast and too expensive. Most race cars today are so emasculated.

The Galpin "Pimp My Ride" styling has never appealed to me.

IMSA Mustangs and box flares FTW.

Pos, plain and simple. What a waste. That just goes to show that someone had more $ than they know what to do w/ it.
