Hey my car is a show car and yeah I have all that stuff so I'm good!
no offense but Lambo doors are so played out that lambo's don't even use them any more.


personally IMO lambo doors are extremely poor taste and a huge waste of money.

i will give you props on your car though as anybody that takes pride in their stang deserves it, but lambo doors??? yuck


as for neons??? only a complete moron that wants to look like a complete retard and somebody that looks like they know nothing about cars uses them.


what's the point???

While I will admit that neons aren't really my thing for mustangs, I think the point is obvious. To draw attention to your car. Example, what's the point of 18" wheels? Or 20" for that matter, or a 1000w stereo system, decals, NON-FUNCTIONAL scoops, etc....everyone is has a little bit of "attention whorism" in them, they just go about it in different ways.

the body kits, while most of them are just flashy, the large air dam in the front is meant to allow more air to reach your IC, lowering springs, etc....

People are just wierd here. It seems like 99% of the people on this part of the forum (don't usually visit the other sections) just wanna fit in and be like everyone else. I have no problem with people "customizing their cars", and if what they do makes it look like crap.....who cares? It's their car, why should it bother me. I can chuckle at them if they look absolutely ridiculous, but I'm not gonna hate on them all day long because they have a huge spoiler. If you like what you did to your car, then more power to you.

And also, I noticed a bunch of funny comments while reading through this post. 1) Sorry cupcakes, but our cars ARE NOT muscle cars. Maybe 40 years ago, but a v6 mustang (and I'm assuming v6 because of the section) is definitely not muscle. There is more "muscle" packed in most of the nissans and mitsubishis of the world as of late. And 2) to the "I like stuff that is functional, not flashy" guys; a lot of the stuff you guys call ricer was intended to be functional. Carbon Fiber (do I really need to explain this one?), the body kits, while most of them are just flashy, the large air dam in the front is meant to allow more air to reach your IC, lowering springs, etc....

My point is, to each his own. I had a Neon with a body kit, carbon fiber hood, 18" wheels and I even purchased neon lights even though they weren't installed. I'm sure if I had pulled up alongside most people on this forum they would have dismissed me as rice. I probably would even be a topic on this board making fun of me. But everything I did was for a purpose, other than the wheels....I immediately regreted that much wieght...but at least I looked good lol.
not muscle cars eh?

Nope anything can be made to be fast, so your argument is null -

Whatever you think of as a muscle car, that's cool, but if it lifts the front end off the ground, its got muscle.

Yeah, and I love the genius newbies.....I was saying body kits (PAUSE), and then lowering springs. Hence the comma Whitman.
