Sick!! That probably worked out for the best. I think it looks amazing, Did you think about putting a cobra bumper and decide against it? Or do you just like the GT bumper better

I think i wouldve liked the hood better without the cobra scoops, but other then that, it looks much better than before.
You can't really go wrong with a triple black vert

I like the hood. I don't think I would do the scoops on it but it sure does look mean on your car especially using the GT bumper. I definitely like the look and the accident worked out well.

I had an accident 6 months ago and it worked out for the better too minus the not being able to drive my car.

Oh look, you painted the horsey's eye red, funny part is I did that on my daughter's cougar last time I had the touch up paint out, to say the least no one has ever noticed it

I like it, but I cringed when I read about your '70 getting rear ended...any post-accident pics of either car, before fixing them?

Car looks good though, I think it looks better now than before.

as for parts came from

Bumber cover = lmr
header panel = lmr
smoked head/fog = american muscle
Pony = AM - this is a ford part but i guess they changed the back of the pony bracket
fr hood pins = AM
Hood = local forum

As for pics i do the 96 wasnt bad bomper cover had a 4inch deep scratch and some small ones of course clear was fubar. eaderpanel was broke in 6places hood got alil chewed up on the front edge and a 2 inch crack near the hood release. head lights where crakedfogs just thought id replace since they are old.

the 70 my baby..... got smacked in the back and shoved in the cabnets in the front driver side have to replace everything around the headlight grill the hood needed work. in the back of the rear valence is done theres now a crack that runs from the edge of the passenger bumper that runs to the rear pass side marker light. bumpers done reverse lights done. the car needed paint and some body resto but there was no crash damage to it before just typical cancer spots. so now i hope when i get the insurance to look at it give me enough so i can just get the body done then start on all the other shit i have sitting for this car to...good/bad news may lose job soon so ill have enough time on my hands to finish both hopefully

I really dig the starfish wheels on SN's. so much so, that I convinced my bro to get some for his black vert! great minds think alike I guess.

and those are some of the few black wheels I actually like.

I did notice and since I didn't have anything nice to say about them I didnt say anything at all

BTW - last time I checked Silver horse racing doesn't have their own hood shocks, they are just a reseller of MRT's, that being said you will love them. One thing every Mustang should have done. Install then remove the OEM rod and throw it right in the trash.

they are just rattle can got tired of the grey. they look good from afar but far from good these came with the car and 3 out of 4 where curbed. just a bandaid till i decided on which rims to get leaning toward staggered 18inch black saleens with red pin strip around the lip. but that 1500 that i dont have for just rims right now
