Default My Bucket o Bolts

Well I was asked for pics by a few people in pm, heres a few of my bucket. It's a DD and has had ~ 25k a year put on since I bought it 2 years ago with <20k.

These aren't up to date as there was a minor change (rear reflector is now tinted).








99-01 Front w/ melted BOI smoked 99-01 fogs + untinted headlamps


99-01 Front w/ 03-04 foglights, tinted headlamps


Criticism is welcomed, the car isn't perfect as it gets driven everyday, it will also have another 2k added onto its odometer in July as I'll be going to So-Cal for a little while(if the problems with my car isn't something that needs immediate attention, see here), and has a few battle scars (damn cones, I swear they just jump out of nowhere) but it's my bucket^^.

Car looks great man. Didn't you do an auto - t56 swap? If so, would you pm me a rough guess on the cost of what was involved. If you don't mind, that is. I'm wanting to swap out my auto for a t56 and would like to know about how much it's going to run me.

Cost for me is gonna be diff for you as I got lucky and knew someone with a cobra going to an auto that wanted to get rid of the tranny. With a swap in parts, new clutch, alum d shaft, mgw short-throw, mgw ****, d-shaft loop, new fly and bullitt pedals I paid about 2500.

Thanks for the kind words guys.

Very nice. I bet it changed the entire driving experience too. I'm to the point where I don't really care what it's going to cost me, I'm doin it.

Edit...Your car makes me want the Steeda wing so bad. I usually can't stand it, but your car pulls it off perfectly.

Chit is sick man. Its nice to see someone whos not afraid to use the steeda wing. Its a nice piece but most people think its rice because ford didnt come up with it(the same company that slapped a cobra R wing on...go figure).

Very nice man, I would never guess that it's a DD to be honest with you. Everything just seems to flow together nicely....you have to give some details about your headlights, they look stock....yet projector?

HOSS, don't you DARE turn this into another rice thread! We'll have newbs jumpin out from everywhere

Thats not what I was trying to do. But if the shoe fits wear it I guess lol. You see a lot of people ******* on the steeda wing; I dont see why, it looks good on almost any car.

What camera do you use Aereon
