Default Hmm... what's to be done to my rear!

I'm not really looking for anything specific, more just like some combination of how I should maybe do some exterior work on my rear!

Any combo with anything like tinted (1)tail lights, (2)black out trunk panel, (3)blacked out valance, or anything else you can come up with.

So for example have (1) and (2). Then another have (1), (2), and (3). And so on and so on. Which ever you guys see fit, by all means do it!

Take your time! I'm by no means in any rush.

if it were me, i'd probably do all three. one thing i'm thinking though, instead of tinting the tail lights, is to put a blacked out bezel on there (either something like this, but black instead of chrome: http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...0%201&comp=LRS or this (which is vinyl): https://www.rockymountaingraphics.co...&search=&page=). you can actually get the roush style valance insert at the rockymountaingraphics place too (https://www.rockymountaingraphics.co...&search=&page=) and, of course, cdc for the trunk panel (http://www.classicdesignconcepts.com...ct_detail&p=65)

i'm actually working on that kind of a look for my car too ... all i have left is painting my spoiler black

i can do these chops a little later if no one else does

Those bezel things look pretty neat. Definitely something to take into consideration. For the trunk panel, I'd probably end up getting it painted or man up and use vinyl unless I could get my hands on one of those honeycomb panels for much less than $200 lol. I'm not sure on the valance still. I really love the look of the tinted tails, black out panel, and the valance blacked out but withOUT the MUSTANG letter inserts. I think there's a silver GT on here that has that combo and look real clean cut.

But yeah like I said, there's no rush!

here are 4 of the combos so far. personally, i'm not sure if i like having the mustang letters blacked out or not; at times it looks good and other times it looks like overkill

black trunk and tinted tails:


black trunk and bezeled tails:


black trunk and tinted tails & black valance: (i think i like this one the best)

DAMN! Some serious sexiness going on up here. I definitely like #3 the best and it seems you do too lol. You're right about the letters. I too think they may be a bit overkill when adding more of black to the rear. Without all of the extra stuff, they're a very nice touch though that's for sure.

Now, could you do one last thing and that's basically do exactly what you did with #3 (panel, lights, and valance) and put it on this picture back when I had no letters.

No worries if you can't get to it right away. Good job though on the previews chops! Those bezel things that go around the lights are pretty cool looking but I'm just not too sure about them.

holy cow, it almost looks like the exact same picture as the one with the 'mustang' lettering

anyway, here's this one... i'm not sure which i personally like better, though; with or without the 'mustang'... both look good

oh and btw, i can't stop staring at your sig

That looks SICK! I think that's the route I'm going to go as far as the rear. I'll keep the letters on and if I don't like it I'll just take them off. The one with the letters looks good, but I just think the one without them looks much more clean cut. In this case, less is more.

Thanks a lot man. You are indeed a chopoholic!

And yes... Gina Carano is very... VERY sexy hahaha
