    Yay or Nay on new wheels

    For that price?? I friggin' love them, man. What a score. And forget all about powdercoating ... they look good the way they are. Don't over think this. :nice:

    SMOKED OR CLEAR HEADLIGHTS ?????

    Years ago, if you wanted the OEM look, your only choice was true Ford OEM parts ... which were expensive (still are, actually). Now they are selling OEM knockoffs ... as they look exactly like the true Ford part, but are not. From what I understand, there are different flavors of these...

    The perfect wheels

    The Black Bullitts with the polished rim, with deep dish in the rear. To me, these look amazing especially on dark (particularly MG/DSG) cars. The retro design of the Bullitt rim in general just really comes across. This is my favorite rim setup, with polished FR500s being a close second...

    May have totalled my car

    I am also sorry to hear this ... But I agree with the others. Buy it back and keep it. Even though it is officially "totalled" as per the DMV, it can still be a great car to own for a long, long time. Especially considering your mods. Just a thought ...

    SMOKED OR CLEAR HEADLIGHTS ?????

    I think what gets confusing is that many people confuse smoked lenses with smoked housings. These are two different things. Smoked lenses look awesomely wicked but are - IMHO - not practical on any car driven at night due to the reduction in light output. Also, they are flat-out illegal in...

    nice weather...new pics

    1) Car looks amazing. 2) Another vote for moving the stock wing backward. 3) You have the only color car that looks good with the Bullitt gascap ... IMO. Very nice. 4) Love the wheels.

    04 Mineral Grey black chrome

    I think I would have to see the rims you are contemplating before I vote ... But what would look amazing would be black Bullitts with deep dish on the rear ... that would look so good on your color car, you could charge people just to look at it.

    Horrific experience with black ice

    I have lived in the Pittsburgh, PA area for about 1.5 years now, and I have been trying to manage my Mustang as a daily driver ... getting by reasonably well with all-season tires. Well ... two weeks ago, leaving work there was a small frozen-rain storm that coated all the roads. Driving home...

    2003 svt cobra shocks

    I would stay away from those old shocks anyway; shocks go bad over time. I just replaced my rear (leaking Tokicos) shocks. My mechanic got me new FRPP rear shocks for $45 each. I can not imagine any better bang for the buck than that, eh? They were a noticable improvement over the blown Tokicos.

    Who has an FR500 Steering Wheel????

    You are correct in that this is not a "visual mod". The FR500 wheel uses a much higher grade leather with perforations and also is heavily padded. It is agreat wheel to hold and feels IMMENSELY better than the OEM one. I bought mine back when they were $150 or so, and I was unsure if it was a...

    Tax Time Thread... What are you doing?

    Nothing big ... but keeps the car rolling along ... - New high-performance all-season tires - Buy a used ABS control module - New Mach 1 chin spoiler (old one is a little chewed up) - Already did new headlights w/ SS Ultra bulbs

    Replacement headlights: What did you do??

    Yeah, my headlights are just like OEM on GTs for the 2001-04 GTs. The housings are smoked, but the lenses are clear ... not the corners. I opted to not get clear corners as I would have to get new amber-colored bulbs for the blinkers. It did not seem worth it to me ...

    Replacement headlights: What did you do??

    I got them from CJ Pony Parts for $53 ea w/ free shipping. They are just like 01-04 OEM on a GT. They fit and look perfect.

    Need help fixing ABS

    Background: I currently have the ABS warning light lit on the dash. My mechanic tells me it shows a "no communication" error. He said that with this specific error it is likely the entire ABS Control Module needs to be replaced, and not a sensor problem. My questions: 1) Is there a cheap...

    What center consoles or parts can be swapped out making room for heated seat buttons?

    It's beyond just how they look when placed there. The real problem would be the inadvertant hitting of them with your knee. Just a humble thought .. Also, what kind of heated seats are you putting in?

    Replacement headlights: What did you do??

    UPDATE: I installed the '01-04 OEM-looking headlight assemblies (smoked housing with clear lenses). They looked like OEM but were actually OEM knock-offs ($120 for the pair). With them I also put in new Sylvania SilverStar Ultra bulbs ($30 after rebate). There was a HUGE difference ... both...

    Gonna spend some cash on the inside

    Yeah, leather covers for both the e-brake and auto shifter. It makes a big difference in the car instead of the hard plastic. The two came together in a nice little kit in very dark gray leather to match the interior. They came already loosley sewn together so you only needed to fit it over...

    Why do people delete their spoilers? Aren't they functional?

    2004 Mustang GT looking 4 1st upgrades

    I do agree with what you are saying, and I now think my reply was not optimally written. But for me, my car is (1) not raced and (2) it is a part-time commuter, so gears are not a good fit for me. Regardless, point taken ... :nice:
