Default Final Finished 06 pics (56K? Hate it fo ya!)

Ok, all appearance mods to the car are done. Got the Tokicos in last night, and definitely night and day difference. She likes the ride (in the car!) again. We pulled the pony package grille, and added the Street Scenes V6 to GT replacement grille, and lower grille, both in black chrome. I'm debating on adding a pony back in. Thoughts?











On my monitor, at least, I can't tell that behind the grille is very visible, which it is in person. Once she gets back from her weekend trip to Florida, I'll probably paint behind the front upper grille, like I did the lower.

In case it isn't obvious, I'm jealous of her car.

Hmm... I like the rims. They accent the car nicely.

That's what we're debating, adding the running pony to the grille. If we do, I'm going to use the 94-04 grille pony, as it's 6" from nose to tail versus just over 8" on the 05-06. The SS grille kind of narrows the opening in the front, and I think the smaller pony would fit better, not to mention it's adhesive backed, must eaiser install.

Hey I'll buy your Pony Package Grille if you won't be using it. PM if you wanna unload it.

Very nice....Are you saying you have 56K invested in it though? I didn't pay much more than that for my house! Still a sweet ride though. To each his own.

HA! No, 56K as in dial up connection. Larger pic files take a while to load on dial up. It's usually added to a title with multiple large file pics.


My only gripe about the wheels is with the fronts. Obviously, the centers don't clear over the dust caps on the spindles. I'm going to try a spacer, if that doesn't work, I'm going to go shopping for a chrome dust cap, kinda like shelby did back in the day. Other than that, I think the wheels compliment the body style nicely, throwback with a modern look.

No pony on the grill. Leave it clean.
