Congrats on the Pony--so sleek and clean! I also worked to earn my 'Stang and it's my first car. While most people's first car is a secondhand beater (unless you're fortunate enough to be born into money) who can say their first was an s197??? And it's a GREAT feeling to know your hard work paid off and you have something awesome to show for it.

Happy modding!

Small bump, clear corners just ordered. Say good bye to those ugly amber turn signal lenses. Also ordered one of those chrome cupholders so start spicing up the interior.

Now question, how bad do you think its going to look underneath those stripes? Im thinking about just getting rid of them for now.

Next mod, hood? Front or rear fascia? Tuner?
I want to get my car looking like I want before I start going performance, but the itch is growing.

good looking car man and nice mods so far, those turn signals will make a huge difference ...as far as underneath the stripes, i dont think it will look bad it will just need some cleaning, i removed the rocker panel stripes and lettering on my car and there were no problems underneath and my car is black so if it was gonna show it would have shown really badly...i think a tune would be a really good tune to invest in, it gives the car a whole new feeling you wont regret it
