Believe it or not I saw an almost identical fastback to mine over in Daytona a while back. You know what I did? I thought, "Damn. That's a good looking car."

I've got too much going on to get my panties in a knot about what somebody else does to their cars.

Let it go, man. Just let it go.

If you want your car to be unique you have to do something that is unique and hard to copy.
Something that only you have.
Like the hood on my gt I promise nobody has a hood like that one because when I painted it I taped out the design my self . And while not every one will like it , it doesn't matter to me because I did it my self and there is none else where exactly like it.

If someone bites your style, just take it as a compliment. Besides, I often see so many hideous looking Mustangs with ricer crap and PepBoys fake stick-on vents sometimes make me wish somebody would copy me.

While I like having a unique car, I don't care if people copy it. Take my old thunderbird SC. It was one of a kind thanks to the paint choice that I used. Hell, even after I sold it, I had people telling me that they spotted it. Had someone copied it, awesome, he has good taste.

Now the T-bird is a rare enough car on it's own that few people mod it, with a mustang, I am reasonably sure that you have copied someone else because everything has been done in the past. I outfitted my 97 with crystal white paint, chrome 03/04 cobra wheels, smoked headlights, and black bumper inserts. It's been done several times before.

You should totally move your rear spoiler back a little. Just another mod to make it different.

Exactly! I would feel honored that somebody is taking time out of their lives and money out of their pockets to make their car look like mine.

Someone in town pretty much copied my car except he has a convertible.. My friends always tell me they saw me drivin and I have to tell them it wasn't me lol. Only real difference is the kid has the front hood on the raised part painted black.

Oh and nearly everyone copied my idea of all black bullitts. I was one of the very first on here to paint mine, if not the very 1st...
