RE: Modifications? What kind?
I have no problem taking advice...that's why I'm asking you guys.
I used to be a chevy guy and got sick of their problems...so I switched to ford.
seems to have been a good move judging by my car gets lots of attention.
I just want to know what I need to modify first...

Obselite,
You have a way to go. You weren't kidding when you said "frankensteined" it. It's green! But looks good. You have a way to go though. I hope no one sold you that hood and told you it was a Saleen hood. It's just a factory Ford hood 99-01. You still need the C-Pillar treatment, and your wing is the 99-01 Saleen one piece S281 wing. I don't see any big brakes from your pics? Also, get some Saleen center caps for those chrome Saleen replica's.
keep at it. Just do what you want and make it the clone you always wanted. Just don't be like the rest and try to pass it off as one. If you want to get bumper numbers you will only be able to get fakes ( probably off of ebay) The whole point to owning an authentic, serialized collector car like a real Saleen is so that a guy like yourself ( no offense) can just whip one up easily.

Thanks for the comments everyone. Yeah, i know it's the stock hood lol...simply due to the scoop being non functional, but when I get a supercharger that will change.
and no offense taken---thanks for the useful comments.
keep the messages coming everyone.
