V6 to the Mach 1 look PICS
I finally made my v6 to look like a Mach 1.... almost
Let me give you guys a little background. I bought a Stock 2004 V6 back in 2006 for $6,200 at the time I was driving 60 miles to work and as you see I couldn't afford to get a V8 due to cost of gas $$$ anyway when I bought the car I noticed that on the sides it had the OEM Mach 1 side stripes and I thought that was odd, well I think that was sign to convert to the Mach 1 look, it was hard to find all the original Mach 1 parts.... it as like a hit and miss anyway here are some before and after pictures!
Before:
I know their crappy cellphone pics
After:
bought the Mach 1 hood from here:

I was thinking this was a Mach 1 Swap. That's what I get for assuming. Nice ride, looks tastefully modded. Double thumbs up.
The only thing on the car I'm unsure of is the Gas Cap, but doesn't look horrible so no worries.

Im thinking of hooking the shaker hose and connecting it to the CAI but the shaker will suck air, dirt, water, bugs, etc into the engine which is obviously not good for the engine and im also thinking of buying a K&N Mustang FIPK Air Intake Kit http://www.americanmuscle.com/kn-cai-9904-v6.html hmmm must think what to do

Wow!! OP what a difference. Car looks good man. Just wodering why the previous owner would put Mach 1 stripes on a car that dosen't even look like a MACH 1? Well anyways good job man. Also Shaunmac some things are best to be left alone. Your car looks bad** the way that it is..
