Laser, that's the slickest looking laser red wax job I've ever seen. Makes me want to dive into the paint job, and just swim around a little.

LaserRed, if you painted your mirrors to match that car would make me mess my pants....not that it already doesn't or anything...brb gotta clean up.

EVERYONE'S been telling me that but shortblock comes first. Then 03 Cobra mirrors and a new hood. Too bad the mirrors are so freaking expensive.

I think so too. I should have done it long time ago. Its subtle, yet very noticble when you look at it. Donno why Ford didn't do it right from get go. Black non folding plastic mirror belongs to Hyundai. Not on Mustang.

02Laserred, you must get yourself Cobra mirror. Makes your car look at least $2000 more in value

I noticed too, especially whenever I park beside my buddies 03 Cobras.

The new Shelby GT500s have those cheap looking plastic mirrors as well.

03 cobra mirrors prepped and painted $450+. Stock mirrors prepped and painted: $120. The money you save can almost buy you a new hood.

After you get a new shortblock, what's the plans?!

Well duh, you got them used and busted up. lol. Brand new I think they run around $350. Most people don't find them beat up and damaged for $120 lol. You, my friend, are the exception.

Well, they were new thats dmg'ed. But ya i got lucked out on that. I wouldn't have cared if they were hot pink and had rainbow stripes on 'em with peewee's load on it since i was gonna paint it anyway.
Shows like carlisle is a good idea as they are much much more receptive to decent offer as most of them don't want to take things back

They are out there. U just have to look around.

No way i would have paid $350 for them tho

But the 03's can fold and that is liek, so cool!

Current plan is shortblock w/cams on 14 PSI followed with 150 nitrous. It should push me over the 600whp mark. Since I'm currently looking for a house, I wont have the $$$ anytime soon to get a KB 2.6L.
