Black is the most beautiful color when its done right. I love it, you have to teach me how to take better pictures.

idk, yours are pretty amazing too. I have a DSLR in the mail, should be here by the end of the week. I'm just teaching myself how to, by taking a ton of pictures and seeing what works and what doesn't work. After i get that DSLR, you'll probably be seeing some more pics of my car

Car looks good as always Matt Angles are good in the pics, but the sunlight is too harsh. A little later that day before the sun sets would've helped a lot! The several you took of the shaded side without letting the sun in the lens were great You will love the DSLR! One thing you will have to learn is how to take most all your pics in the manual modes, where you control pretty much everything. I've taken very few of mine in auto. The few I do, is to compare my manual settings to what the camera thinks is right. Given you have a large enough memory card(2 GB+)adn HD on the computer, don't be afraid to rack up the "bad" pics. Most of them I won't delete until after I get back to the computer and using Adobe Bridge see what settings I used and try and learn what not to do in certain situations again Using a tripod and a slow enough shutter speed you'll be suprised how you can take pics in low light conditions. Another added bonus is reading as many books as you can. I've read through at least 6(from library)since Xmas and bought 3 of them. Another great tool is a video specificaly on your camera! I got one off of eBay(Sell N Send)for $20 and have learned quite a bit. I like one of the guys sayings near the beginning about using the owners manual. "It's great for learning where things are on your camera, but not how to use them very well. You wouldn't expect to learn how to drive your car by reading the owners manual."
I hear ya on taking a ton of pics with it! I got mine on 11/30/07 and have taken just over 2700 pics and just over 900 of those are of the Stang

I actually bought them for my 2004 GT, but after that was totaled, I put them on this car. I got them from americanmuscle.com. They're 18x9 and 18x10 hypercoated FR500s.

look sick flyboy...here's my 2 cents, black-out everything but your headlight's even get the fog light covers, i say that because your wheels (black chrome) will stand out like a sore thumb! don't too much keep it simple..not a fan of the louvers on the side windows but for some reason it goes good w/ your car!

give you a lot props...

That looks sweet! That's why I originally wanted an all black GT, but I'm pretty happy with my Mineral Grey one.

Any problems with the wheels for an '04 fitting the S197's? American muscle doesn't make hypercoated for them.

no problems really. The only issue is the offset. They stick out a bit further than they should. Although, I think it almost makes it look better. Now they come out even with the fenders, rather than being sucked inside the huge fenders. It gives it a wide stance, so if you're cool with that, then they work fine.
