    Roush Fox Saleen Stripes

    Live with them the way they are, or buy new. As stated above, those decals are permanent. If you just need one single piece, try calling Mark at performance autosport, he may have a broken set or two... otherwise you are s.o.l.

    Roush Suprised noboy mentioned this coupe

    Lol, the passenger side headrest is just on backwards! Anyway, this car looks really beat. All of the aforementioned reasons, but also the pics/location. Without coming off like a snob, take a look at the house and the garage, the coupe is in about the same condition!! Pics taken in a muddy dirt...

    Saleen wheels on a 93 coupe?

    It's the spindles that are killing him, and I would bet that those aftermarket A-arms add (significant) track width as well. Sure, it can be done, but you are pushing 1" of additional width to the inside, and 1" to the outside, with a 9" wheel, which is ok, but only if you have the stock Fox...

    Saleen wheels on a 93 coupe?

    BTW, a 9" wheel with a +24 offset is perfect for the rear of a Foxbody, not the front. (depending on how you accomplished your 5 lug conversion).

    Saleen wheels on a 93 coupe?

    Sorry, but those wheels will simply not fit on your car. You want to put a 9" rim on the front with only a +24 offset!? Here is some simple math: from the Fox factory standard, (with a 7" rim and a +24 offset) you will have 25mm less clearance to the inside, and your 9" wheel will extend and...

    PMS a half a$$ed way of tuning???

    PMS does everything that any chip can do, yet you can change the PMS, infinitely, as your setup changes. With a chip, major changes in your setup requires a new chip. Chips are a one-trick pony and are like a polaroid snapshot, in time, for your current setup only. If you intend to keep your car...

    Anyone have experience with carbon fiber hoods?

    Keep your Saleen wing. The steeda aeros look like shiite, imo. :barf:

    this is one amazing fox.

    I would put a set of Pony R's on there and paint that cage black and tint the windows (FL car). Then I would take this ultimate sleeper and hunt down and kill every single other car ever made... :D

    Someone help me make up my mind!

    You have good taste in hoods. Those are, by far, the two best looking hoods for our cars. That being said, keep the stocker!! Go with a full Saleen body kit, instead, for just about the same money! You don't need the hood for clearance, right? If you are dead-set on getting a hood, go with the...

    Pics of my 87 GT.

    Definitely a vast improvement over the 1st pics. I would delete that red stripe, by going over it with gray tape that matches your lower panels, for a cleaner look.

    New Pics of My Coupe

    Nice car. I would go with a 5 lug conversion and some period correct Saleen wheels. The new SSC replicas would be a good choice, since the original ARE's and/or Sterns, Speedlines etc. are pretty hard to come by. They are available in 4 lug, if you didn't want to convert, but it really just...

    Roush need new winshield banner

    It is extremely easy to put on yourself. All you need is a spray bottle full of water and one single drop of dish soap, some low adhesive (blue) tape, drug store rubbing alcohol, and a plastic squeegee. Mark the centerline of your window with blue painters tape, or a wash-able marker etc. Also...

    Roush Decal placement for a 98

    I don't know about the wreath, but if by 'stripes' you mean the side chevrons, they are spaced exactly 1" apart. Coincidentally, if you use blue painters tape to mark out the locations, the tape is 1" wide, perfect for spacing. As far as where to 'begin' with the solid chevron, looking at...

    Saleen wheel value?

    If the car still has 4-lugs, it is a fake. The wheels were sold by Saleen for 'regular' fox cars, and are most likely real. A set of those wheels are probably worth $600-$1000, depending on condition, due to the 'rarity'. With the introduction of the replicas, possibly quite a bit le$$...

    Roush Stern wheels Offset question?

    I will gladly post pics, once they are actually on my car! Right now I am "in the process" of doing the SN95 brake conversion, and I still need to get a set of tires on the wheels. It will probably be a couple of months, at least.

    Roush Stern wheels Offset question?

    I am putting a set of Sterns on my car. My set of wheels does not have the correct Saleen/Stern offset of +24 front, +39 rear. However, my car is not a true Saleen car, it is a tribute car, and I used the Baer M2300Killer 5 lug conversion. So here is my 'hypothesis' if you will. I will be...

    Picture request please - 5-lug conversion using 96+ spindles and SN95 rear axles

    Small thread resurrection. I have a quick question. The wheels I am going to be putting on have a +15 offset. I am using 98 SN95 spindles, which add +13 in offset, correct? So essentially I will be around +4mm in offset, from the standard Fox offset of 23.8mm ? I am having trouble with the basic...

    Roush Saleen Bumper Number decals

    5.0 Resto has them, they get them from a 3rd party, like Graphic Express or similar. They are 100% correct in font, size, shape etc.
