You gonna wet sand that door before you are done? Also the MUSTANG window lettering is in the window on the OEM one. You must have gotten the LMR replica. What you can do is go to a sign shop and have them copy the other side (assuming you have it on the other window) and print one up. Of course it will look slightly different since it will be on the surface but non Mustang people will never notice.

Rite on, yeah the doors going to get a wet sand compound and polish theirs a lot of orange peel. Whoever painted it last did a ****ty job. but at least he didnt paint the moldings. The body work was horrible. luckily my buddy is a magician with when it comes to that stuff. I was thinking about just doing my own thing. Maybe put a blue running pony on the qw. Im not sure yet i dont want it to look ratard. too much work went into this to mess it up . part of me likes it without the mustang lettering.

When i brought it to chard the guys couldnt give me a name. Turns out the last owner must have made his own color out of it because theirs like 12 different kinds of colors mixed. its closest is the blue they put on the neons. Very expensive

I second that about it being an EXCELLENT job for a home deal! I do indeed like that color blue. I saw that package with your new wheels and MAN! I am sooooo jealous! I dont know if this is something that we can discuss but I have had my eyes on those same wheels. If you dont mind me asking, how much was it for the whole deal, wheels and tires? I am finally ready after 12 years to swap rims and am doing some shopping. Just curious. Again, Nice Job!

Thanks for the compliments gents, I regret to I'm form you dachipsta but I actually came across a really sweet deal on these rims. They were on a 90 gt I picked up for 2g. - got the fresh rims and tires new novi 1000 u.l tubular intake msd 6 al subframe connectors 60pound injectors and blk interior out of it. But I would imagine it would run anywhere from 600 for rims and depending on your choice of tires another 400? But goodluck man maybe you'll run across a good deal. Ill be posting some more pics soon the passenger qp has to be done and then its game time.

Thanks guys, it been a long month for the car. I've been trying to get around to the mac catback I orderd can't wait to hear some tone. U know how old dumps get after you can't hold a convo for shi. Lol, but yeah It came out great for a garage job. Imo booths aren't always needed, as long as u have a place with no dirt n no humidity your good. And blocksanding helps with orange peel.

shaolin ill help u out if your tryna get some paint work done. When we meet up in oct just let me know what your tryna do.
