Actually, it doesn't look bad at a different angle. Not what I would do, but there are people that don't like my 2005 and what i have done.

I think the biggest thing is the rest of the car doesn't have a radical look to go with it. I think you could make it work better, but on a stock bodied mustang they seem a bit much.

I agree with you. And there is a 90% chance it will end up looking stock again. All my money is going to other stuff. But I would get the tiger racing hoodor something similar I would keep them on.

I like them, and would actually possibly be interested in buying them if you were going to sell. Way to be different. Glad you not butt hurt on all the words people here just don't like to be different or think of new ideas. Remember going with a non stock mustang wheel is just becoming cool.

its funny as when I do surf around on here you would think that every other sn has black bullits and every 3rd car has side exhaust as well and yet when I am around town I have never seen another mustang with the same stuff.

I can understand if its functional and your racing that the form follows the function. If your not racing with it then it would be the definition of rice as bad as a 4ft spoiler or fart can since it in no way flows with the rest of the car. There is not a straight flat line in the body of the car so to slap them on there just looks like a horrible after-thought.

not sure what you mean, I am not trying to slide those off as a performance upgrade to justify the use of them. They are now and will be purely for looks and to make a big blind spot in your driving, and to look cool while doing it. When I made them I knew I would have some haters, and some lovers and was not going to get offended. Strangely enough the haters are only online and all the people that have held them thought they looked great.

Lol I figure id poke at you just for fun. I never said it was a performance upgrade if I was road racing they could be but im not. maybe a lil on the streets but who can resist against the lil hondas (stupid and against the law I know). Got them from a friend had them on the old car I fihure id fixem up maybe ill keep them maybe not. Cars has to run first. I think louver on the windows dont look good personally but some people love them and thats their choice.
Your back seat delete sick that I would sport.

All my performace is going under the hood. As you can see from my sig. Everything else is stock interior,exterior. Minus the fenders lol they are not bolted down yet so it does not count. Now that I got your attention what do you think about cerwin vega strockers subs.

I never knew slow "fast looking" hondas were ever cool. I got friends with some fast hondas but they look stock except for wheels and lowered. This are oem fenders not fiberglass.

cerwin vega strokers............wow that takes me back!!!! ferrofluid cooled mag's and could shake you to death..........too bad they were only good for one thing and that is the only thing they were intended for.......db drags!!! they are just like the mmats juggaurnats that we use to sell at my shop, meant to be really loud at a very limited range of frequency and not meant to be played for everyday listening.

sorry, bad subject with me as those types of sube caused me a lot of conflict with stupid customers who wanted to get their stuff replaced once a month when they abbused it and didnt head my warnings on buying comp cubs for everyday use all just so they could have "them gorillas banging in the trunk yo"!!!!!!!!!!

I missed that question above. STrokers as he said were great spl makers. Great spl makers do not generally make for a good musical experience.
