No problem.

To finish off that blacked out look, which is sweet as hell, you might want to check these out from BBR... 05-09 Smoked Headlight Sale. I have a set and love 'em. If you decide to go for a pair, tell Steve I sent ya :thumb2:

Looks great! I was seriously considering having mine wrapped this way just because I hate all the tiny scratches associated with a black car. Still trying to decide between spending $2500 on a wrap job or spending $4200 on a procharger....

@ AbdullaGT:

Procharger or M90 ;) haha. Both are great and upgradable in power and close in price.

But if u go my route u could have both the blower and the paint job :))

I am very happy and proud of my paint job. I live in Hollywood. All damn day people whip out cameras and take pictures while I'm driving! It's hilarious!

Damn, those would b perfect! I have an entire gt500 face lift though...I think it might just be for GT's :(

Ahh... so you do, sorry mate! I'd recommend giving Steve a call anyway, he might be able to help you out.

It looks great for sure, I just don't know that I could be attached to it. Not to mention I get bored of cars quickly so if I ever wanted to sell it I'd just have the wrap removed. Maybe I could do one now and one towards the end of the year. Decisions decisions.

Flat paint looks like you're too damn cheap or lazy to finish the repaint on your car.

Anything short of shinny still looks unfinished to me.

I only polish mine once a month or so. If you polish your car more than that I think your wasting your time and energy. You may need professional help. j/k.

I think constantly detailing is the sign of an obsessive compulsive person. Wash it. Drive it. Wax it when needed. Enjoy. That's what I do.

^Agreed, I didn't think RWL tires were available for late model stangs. What wheels Crazytown & are they the right offset? Crazy did it right, but I'm not feeling some of the other pics.

Thanks :). Too bad the largest they make the RWL for a Radial is 295/50/15. My rears are 325/50/15 M/T drag radial now. That tire is nice. Keep it at about 20-25 psi on the street for a nice flat, even wear and perfect traction.

@JCCNY:

I guess it doesn't really matter what wheels or offset. Because the front fenders are 1.5" wider each and the rear fenders are 2.5" wider each. They are made by Maier Racing. They were around $500 for the fronts and $700 for the rears. The wheels were $50-$100 each and are from Aero Race Wheels. I saved $250-300 per wheel as apposed to going with Bogarts or Hole Shots and got the wide fenders. The slight drop and wide car looks amazing in person. The camera doesn't do it any justice at all.

If I could do it again though I would go for some Bogarts. Those street/strip wheels are light! I will be getting them at some point. Leave them as be or black powder coat at a shop.

325/50/15 rears now. Moving over to 390/45/15's soon
