Default Great progress..

So after all of those Bullitt styling posts, I finally figured out something that works. I got my trim panel and my lower bumper insert installed. Overall, I'm pretty happy with how the rear looks. Can't wait for a set of new wheels. I found a shop that will do my exhaust work for 1/3 of what Midas wanted. Stoked about that too. After removing the spoiler and the two add-ons, here's what I've got so far.



Not the cleanest job in the world, and I've yet to paint the plugs or the marks from the spoiler, but you get the idea. Thanks for humoring me guys.

I've always been a fan of the spoilerless look. Def needs to be one color though, so it will look great when that;s done. I like it though. Tinting your tails, even slightly, could really add a nice contrast to the back end!

Love the panel insert, personally I'm not a fan of spoilerless on 94-04, on the new edges I love the 03-04 cobra spoiler.

don't go to a random shop like midas for exhaust work on your car. you will be raped on the price for questionable work. i had a moron friend learn that the hard way.

Yeah dude, the back of your car looks amazing. I really like those smoked tails, I'm definitely going to try that. I've also toyed with the idea of a different spoiler, so we'll see what could possibly fit on mine. Even the Bullitt had somewhat of a spoiler. Thanks for the comments. It's a basic start, but I'm happy so far.

Yes, I did find that out the hard way. I'm just glad I found out before I made the mistake. The guy's shop does custom work and he's super friendly about it, a welcome change from the high class idiots near DC. I'm basically getting everything from the stock H pipe back replaced, with my Super 44's thrown in instead of the stock mufflers. We'll see how it sounds Tuesday.
