Nelly's DUB edition mustang 5.0
I dont know exactly what was done to this mustang.
all i know is DUB and mustang should not be in the same sentence.
DUB is for SUV's and cadillacs, not mustangs. IMO
i know ford is trying to sell cars, but keep it real.
Nelly should stick to grills only, mustangs are for real mustang people.
those arent even mustang rims.
and the DUB badge on the trunk, the mustang police should take it as evidence for desecration of an ICON.

Who are we to tell someone they can or can't customize their car? Do we have stock in Ford or getting endorsed by them? However, it's obvious they're trying to reach an "urban" market with this collaboration. I think it's tasteful done with the body kit they added. I agree I have not seen DUB do collabo's with muscle cars but I'm always up for new ideas.
With all that said I respect your opinion but I would drive it!

Torch, I'm pretty positive it is. To my knowledge, having any lights on the front of your car that are shared by authorized vehicles, i.e. blue, red, etc, is illegal.
With that being said, I like the car. Sure, it's way different than a typical Mustang, but isn't that the point of the aftermarket? To appeal to car enthusiasts and allow them to make their vehicle stand out? The way I see it, the shaker hood may appeal to a specific generation of muscle enthusiasts, whereas this car could could appeal to a newer generation of sleek, modern car owners. Shelby and Roush have done it, what's to stop other people from jumping in?

Okay, I gotta be honest here, and believe me, this isn't what I was expecting to say, but... I like it. Honestly, if it didn't say "DUB", but had a completely different brand there, I don't think there'd be much debate.
Hey, coulda been a lot worse. Two words - "Knight" and "Rider".

Thats a fine lookin' car there, I'm sure if it had FOOSE stamped all over it people wouldn't be so quick to hate it. Nelly and DUB did a great job on it, personally I think it looks great, foglights are cool too, reminds me of the Camaro BLACK edition
