Default New gauges, New rims, tell me wat u think

I just installed my new gauges, only took about 30 minutes and i just bought some 19" rims for the stang, tell me what you guys think of them http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2053809

I also ordered an accufab 70mm Throttle body / plenum combo, a SLP loudmouth exhaust, and a mac straight shot CAI.. Everything is going on in march including the rims and tires...

One more thing... does anyone know were i can get a factory 03-04 cobra front / rear bumper

lol, did you really top your car out at 155+ or did you just set the needle all the way up when the cover was off. Because i'd be too scared to take both hands off the wheel at that speed. Not to mention, my 96 cobra with more ponys tops out at 142, so unless you have a healthy list of mods, im calling BS. The gauges look good though, and im eager to see how the wheels will look. whats the width of the wheels, anything less than 9 inches in my opinion won't look good without spacers, depending on the offset of the wheel

I remember a Brit got arrested because he video taped himself going almost 200 mph on the carriage way (think interstate). He had his speedo in view so they fined his *** big money. I'd pull that pic, even if it is BS. I hope it is, because at 134 mph in Germany, both my hands stayed on the wheel and my eyes glued to the road. Anyone taking snapshots while driving at that speed is just ignorant and has no place on the road.

My .02 worth.

BTW, you'll have one hell of a time trying to hook up with 19 inch rims. Fine for road racing, though.

I love the new gauges. Those are a nice upgrade for only $250 (were they easy to install?). I have this urge to completely rip out the gauges and console in mine. Where did you get them?
