    YOUR opinion on my bumper

    Don't do it!! Just put the rest of the Saleen body kit that you are missing on! lol Seriously, though, the full Saleen kit would complete the look of the car and make it look as mean as hell...

    Saleen Post Pics Of Your Saleen!!

    So it needs a new fender, door and what else? Was the hood damaged? Is the roof salvageable or will it need to be cut off and have a new one spliced in? Looks like the Saleen body kit survived the collision, at any rate. Definitely worthy of a full restoration. Might I ask how much a Saleen...

    GIANTSSSSAAAA!!!!!

    Die-hard Patriots fan here. Always have been always will be. The Pats were outplayed by the Giants for the entire game. This kept the game close, giving the Giants the chance to score on their final 2 minute drive. Any fan who doesn't admit that the Giants were LUCKY is delusional!! Asante...

    Saleen Post Pics Of Your Saleen!!

    Yeah, I just noticed the roof looks like it is all dented in? WTF?! Did someone dance a jig up there?! lol Still a great car, worthy of a restoration, which I assume is what you are doing, selling your 2000 to fund it? Definitely do it.

    Roush wheel alignment specs

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

    I am in the process of doing the conversion, right now (front only). I was able to get a set of 98 spindles for only $60 for the pair!! A well known Mustang salvage yard wanted $150 per side! I actually wanted the 96-98 spindles, since they add the 8mm (or 13 whatever). The wheels I am using...

    Roush saleen sleeper edition?

    Looks to be some clever marketing by the dealer, only. :notnice: This car has no affiliation with Saleen, no registration # etc. The only thing linking this car to Saleen is that they installed one of their own blowers in it. If I had the dealer take a car to Vortech and install one of their...

    Steeda Spoiler

    You need to decide which spoiler you want, based on styling, not price. A good quality Saleen spoiler will cost you the same as the Steeda one. That cheap Saleen knock off, you described is going to need an extra $150+ of bodywork, versus a quality Cervinis piece. Unless you are a body man, and...

    Roush I'm sure you guys seen these, but nobody mentioned them yet

    Yes, but 'Big Brother' (eBay) always knows. They supposedly check for patterns such as these, using sophisticated computer programming and searching functions. I don't know if that is true or not. I am sure that the buyers and sellers would be much more observant in catching these disreputable...

    Roush I'm sure you guys seen these, but nobody mentioned them yet

    Just to be a PITA, the correct term is 'shill' bidder, not shrill or shell. This is someone who works in collusion with the seller, bidding up an item, so legitimate bidders will up their bids, in an attempt to win the auction. Ebay is somewhat successful at ferreting out these shills, as it is...

    Roush Saleen Mustang ? Real one ?

    Quote "Unlike the northeast, salt is not used on the roads out here. On top of that, western Washington and Oregon get very little snow and winter temps are usually in the upper 30's and 40's. Cars very rarely have any kind of major rust problems and the concept of a "winter rat" is unknown...

    Roush Saleen Mustang ? Real one ?

    Thanks for the info about the high number of Saleens in the Pacific Northwest, I was not aware of that. My statement was really just a blanked generalization based on perception, no hard evidence. The area you guys live in must be pretty hard on cars, during the winter months, salt and snow and...

    Roush Saleen Mustang ? Real one ?

    The main things that you want to check for are the Saleen specific items. Fox body replacement parts are plentiful, but the Saleen stuff is like gold and difficult to come by and expensive to purchase! Exterior you want to make sure that the 4-piece body kit is in good shape, no cracks or broken...

    Roush I'm sure you guys seen these, but nobody mentioned them yet

    Another random thought; remember, these wheels sold for $500 a piece, when they were new!

    Roush I'm sure you guys seen these, but nobody mentioned them yet

    I don't know about those. The price was bit high, for a set with not that much going for it? Here is my scoring scale for the Sterns, IMO 20 points for correct widths (17x8 and 17x9) 20 points for correct offsets +24 and +39 20 points for correct centerbore width 20 points for the correct...

    Roush Saleen Mustang ? Real one ?

    The rollbar and rear seat delete would not be factory from Saleen, these modifications were done, aftermarket. $13000 is very high, in the US that would be a low of $4K, high of $6K car, but since it is overseas already, that may be a fair price. It will cost you several additional thousands of...
