Yeah I did get one, it's probably just the way the pics were angled.

Thanks man! I've always liked the sidescoops like that. Maybe it's just cause I've never seen another red mustang like mine before though.

Wheels look sick! Scoop makes car look unfinished. Only way that looks good is if you follow the body lines forward with the same color

I'm definitely not into the scoop. Nor am I into the lower rear valence on the bumper. The black should follow the lines. Grab a piece of vinyl and go to town. When i had vinyl on mine, i cut it and installed it myself. it's not that hard. It's the small things that make a world of difference!

WHEELS LOOK AWESOME! I liked it both way... But you know i like the red and black theme... Wanna trade wheels with me?!

What a difference! Car looks great with the new wheels, but the scoop thing isn't working. It looks like you want it to look like carbon fiber, but it doesn't really look like carbon fiber... and knowing the scoop is fake... idk, just isn't working. Maybe paint it black if you want it to be different?

Looks great man! I hate to go here, but what size wheels (bullitts) and tires did you have before? They look all the same which is the same as I'm looking to do. Sorry for asking a newb question.
