i thought about doing that, but then i decided i dident want a replica, so i took what i felt was the best stock style parts to make the mustang ford should have built in the first place. i'm fairly happy with how it turned out, except i still need to hit it with a finer compound to remove some swirls from the wet sand and polish.
SVO style hood, Cobra R wheels, 93 cobra wing, lowering springs, etc.
sorry, i'm a picture *****
But anyways, go saleen! i dont see many (around my parts at least)
i think they look sweet white with white wheels. kinda like this one

alright well my plan is to have the saleen bumpers, skirts etc. but kinda add a more modern touch like newer style one piece headlights and 03 saleen rims (never liked the fox sal. rims)

ehh, not a fan of the one piece headlights. something about them just doesent look right to me. black could be sweet but it does nothing to help you stand out, especially with the "murdered out" craze. I normally dont like white, especially on sports cars, but something about that saleen......
These wheels would be sick though

I was considering doing a saleen replica as well but the body kit costs like $900+ and that is without the wing. I think I am just going to do a GT to LX conversion and throw a Saleen wing on it because I like the way it looks and I think someone hit my GT wing with a baseball bat.
