Definitely looks good! But I may be a little biased.. Lol. Not so sure about the window louvers though..

+1 You may want to rethink the window louvers if you are going for the clean sleek look...

I thought the same after seeing it. Going to look into the shr's since they're flush.

Yep, +2 for ditching the louvers if you're going clean. I do believe I'll be doing the same on my next ride. Definitely digging the scoop and spoiler ditching! Good job!

I'm not so sure I would go with SHR louvers either. I think they would still take away from the sleekness of your ride.

Maybe add to the BOSS splitter up front and change the grille to a black straight bar grille. Then you would be looking sleek and mean.

Maybe paint the trim (side skirts, lower rear and front valance) also minus the center section between the mufflers and the sections where the fog lights go in the front bumper (add the flog lights there too). Just some ideas for you. Haha.

Thanks! See below...
Just noticed your sig, car looks nice! Boss splitter is on the list; I still dig the look of the fogged grille, even though they're blacked out. I've thought about the eleanor grille, but think they look a little better on 05's. And I like the unpainted rockers and stuff; like the touch of matte(I may be the only one, lol).

So I took the louvers off last night. Those velcro strips were stuck like a bitch. After sitting in the 100+ heat all day they weren't too bad with some goo gone. Now I'm left with a couple of issues to deal with, not surprising. All the adheshive has come off, but an outline of where the little velcro patches were remains. It feels like the glass is actually scratched and/or grooved around where the edge of the tape was(with my fingernail), but 'looks' like it may just be some pretty tough residual adhesive. There are several scratches around the edges of the windows from the louvers rubbing a little, and no doubt from me while removing them and repositioning them after a cleaning every now and again. And finally some pretty nasty etched water spots. Check out the pics below and let me know how to get these windows smooth as glass again!

Oh and the tint faded with the lines of the louvers. Not really an issue because the tint on there isn't the best I guess; It's got some small bubbles in it, and I will be going a lot darker soon.













Quick crappy shot for now

Try WD-40 to remove the strong adhesive? This makes me think twice about louvers...

I once removed one of my louvers to replace the 3M tape. No marks or adhesive stuck on the window. His are factory, so I guess Ford really sticks those on there.

Yeah true, but I mean I live in GA so it's CRAZY hot here too, I feel like mine would do the same

Love your car. I just picked up a '11 GT in black, and wanted window tint, gun metal wheels with rivets, eleanor scoops and a wing delete. Good taste in cars, looks fantastic!
