If you're referring to the headlight HID's then yes. The stock 4300k bulbs had a slight hint of yellow but now with the 6000k it has a slight hint of blue similar to that of BMWs if not the same.

Thanks Templar, looking forward to seeing your new wheels. I don't think you've mentioned it, but what tires sizes going to run with those 19x9.5/11?

With everything I've got, this car needs more traction than power lol so wheels, tires, and suspension are next.

Found a perfect spot for the BAMA ID and a pic of the engine bay.

OEM black/charcoal leather seat covers is my next purchase off ebay. Went ahead and did the door panels using 3M matte black vinyl. Came out OEM-like and for only $20 bucks and an hour of my time.

New mod for the New Year brought to you by American Muscle - pre painted MMD Tail Light Trim Bezels! I'll try to take some better pics tomorrow.

I haven't got around to posting these pics but I swapped out my stone gray leather for charcoal and for a steal too! Discovered this deal from another Mustang forum.

http://www.shelbystore.com/product-p/x-m11-16620-ab.htm

Although, from other members experiences on said forum, it appears that it's a gamble what kit you end up with, some may have torn tabs and/or missing headrest skins but I was fortunate to get them practically new, full set.














Back seats took about an hour and a half but the front seat were a pain in the butt. Took me forever to do the driver side and started getting late so I ended up finishing the passenger side the day after.






I also managed to break darn near every tab of the driver's side shield assembly so I stopped by the dealership's part department to find out the piece costs $100 bucks!





But I walked out with some Ford Merchandise while I was there too.
