Other than the wing I think it looks pretty awesome. Definitely something you don't see everyday

Thanks!

Yeah the orange 'marker' is a UK legal requirement - an indicator or repeater which has to flash with the front and rear turn signals. Every American car imported into the UK has to have this annoying conversion done before its road legal. But I haven't removed them now, just hidden them behind the vents in the side panels:



And should probably change the shocker to feature a British flag!

Knew that would be a love it or hate it thing. I love it tho!

Yeah I generally have more conservative tastes so it's too much for me but if you like it that's all that matters!

thanks for the info, i wasn't aware of that, today is done.. i have learned something new! awe dude.. that is sick with them hidden like that.. sweet move..

and the wing.. i agree with you.. its not something i'd do with my car.. but i won't be a hater if you do it to yours.. i mean.. you're not scabbing it together with a crapy paint job or body mods or sponsor stickers either.. yours is SUPER clean.. 5*

and +1 for the union jack shocker chg.

There's other stuff we have to change too like the rear lights. The Three reds so characteristic of the Mustang can't be used as turn signals as only Brake lights are allowed to be red. Turn signals or us lot call them, indicators, have to be orange. There are a number of aftermarket conversions but all bloody ugly and lose the three reds look.

A buddy of mine has developed a conversion where he swaps bulbs and wiring and cuts in orange panels to make 'em legal. See pic. Then we have to **** about with reverse lights and fog light legalities too, all of which, unless you get someone who absolutely knows what they're doing, causes nightmares with the SJB. Its a common occurrence for badly converted UK Mustangs to start developing ridiculous habits even years after the work has been done. Everything from unexpected stalling to fogs coming on instead of turn signals, windows opening 'magically' and all kinds of other irritating radio stuff. Mine used to die on highways. 80/90 mph at night and suddenly total power loss - no brakes, power steering and no lights. Hilarious!



Oh and I intend to 'scab it' with sponsor stickers real soon!
