    Sup guys.

    I just wanted to update the thread. A lot has gone down.

    The car got the correct fenders and as of last weekend I took the coilovers off. Installed eibach sportline springs and removed all the dip and car is being painted as we speak.

    Why the weakness with suspension? Well car is going up for sale and I'm going to use the coilovers for the next mustang I purchase.

    Unto pics.





    A whole new front end





    I'll take some post paint pics and start a for sale thread by Friday

    I do miss the shiny black paint but dipping it a lighter color will be nice. What color were you thinking about going with?

    It is what it is. I like the way it looks sits and drives. I admittedly miss the poke and stretch but I will settle for now

    I plan on dipping a lighter color and painting the wheels silver

    Here are the new fenders. Still need work tho

The most understandable example of this outside the car world is plastic surgery and people like Michael Jackson and Bruce Jenner. That is supposed to be an illustrative example and not a direct comparison.

    The 2012 front end is nice, but the fender/door gaps make it look unfinished. The tail lights were perfect in red. The gold wheels could work, but the flat black murdered-out look is so popular now, it seems most modified black Mustangs and Camaros are going for it. Those changes made it look a bit more common and it started out more unique in the above pics. Who knows, I might be the only person who feels this way, so take it with a grain of salt. In the end it is your car, so you should do whatever you want.
    110% agree with this. Huge fan of the look he was talking about, not so much the newer look. Simplicity is key.

    Though I think it would look better with glossy paint, it's your car. That's what makes it badass, it's something that not a lot of people would think that they would like. It kind of throws out the idea of being normal and comes together to make a seriously mean looking car.

    I understand exactly what you're saying but this is a hobby and I just wanted to change it up. Believe it or not I will get the fenders done.

    Being a hobby I can't do it all at once bc I will get bored and run out of things to do. I love the car in all of its stages. Some more than others I'm just having fun changing it up.

    Thanks for your input
