Default My first Mod

First things first - I had to get rid of the black pony:

Original look


After look


It now looks like a Mustang!

Wow, that does look better. And I have been looking for a way to black mine out.

I think I will keep it the way it is.

That does look a lot better. I agree the Black pony needs replacement.
I Just ordered a custom painted one. My GT is Performance white so I
ordered one with a White Base coat with Black & silver Flames. I'll post it when I can. LOL

I prefer the stealth black pony but the chrome one looks nice too!

I guess in alot of ways I am a traditionalist. I still remember the first Mustangs with their chrome ponies. My all black '76 Mach1 had the chrome pony too. One look and you could tell it was a Mustang by the chrome pony. If I was after the stealth look an all black car might do that, but grabber blue - I just can't relate that to being stealthy.

Yeah, on the '10 I prefer the "never go back" pony myself, but the chrome looks great if that's what ya like and I can understand your reasoning. Now on to the next mod!
