Do you mean downhill in a good way or bad ?
I love my catless exhaust, the only problem was the one day my truck was down and I had to take the stang to work. My neighbor knocked on my door that afternoon, she asked me if I could please not start my car at 4:30 AM :nonono:

Oh, I just remembered! My 1st mod was not my new HL's. It was really my Texas Longhorn's logo on my deck lid! I had that when I did not even have an automobile!! Then it was my HL's!!

I think the horizontal taillights look hella sexy on white Stangs, good choice. I'm looking for an extra set of taillight lenses to tint but i want them to be red, not white when they light up...

Thanks.
I had not thought of that, I just figured they would light up red anyway with the red bulbs. I'll have to give it a shot. How should I tint them ? I was thinking of window film, but I don't think that will work well. Should I get some spray tint and where to get it ?

I'm doing mine with VHT Niteshades, you can tint them as dark as you like and it'll still let light through. Or if you have an extra $130 our member KB will professionally spray tint them for you that will have a durable car-paint finish.

Nice thank you. I looked up the nightshades and for 10$ a bottle, I'll give it a shot on an old set of lights. If it doesn't come out right, it won't matter on those clear lights. I haven't worked much in the last month so the 130$ is out of the question right now.

First mod on this mustang was o/r x pipe from UPR, because the stock was was hacked up and welded to some really crappy homemade catback from the previous owner. My first mod ever,hmmm, can't remember I started building cars with my dad when I was 12,we built a 1923 ford T-bucket street rod. That was 1983 and we just sold that car a couple of years ago.Yes I'm OLD,but I still know how to have fun!!!

my first car modding was done about 10 years ago, on a 1983 dodge colt hatchback... i picked up some fluffy zebraskin material from walmart and my mom helped me making some custom seat covers , next was custom cut to fit black carpet, next was a tape deck , followed by a rattle can blue metal flake paint job... that was my first car and i have matured in taste a lot since then...

my black cobra stain is entirely stock as far i know... the rear tail lights are rice, but will be modded by putting the stock ones back in there when i can find a set (if you can call that a mod.) oh and i removed that cobra off the back window that was also a visual mod i would say....

Post a pic of them. I think if changing from rice to a stock type light, it's definitely a visual mod.

Wow, I see the pic you updated and those tails ARE rice, no offense. Whether you change them to a 94/95 style or 96-98, it will look a lot better.
