Before:


And I know I might get some rice comments, but I'm happy with the changes
I took the ugly light blue and silver pinstripes off and replaced it with one line of black barbed wire, changed the fender badges, and added the 3rd brakelight vinyl.

The Mustangs in the background are laughing at you .

But if you're happy, that's all that matters

I'm getting a tribal design put on my Mach. That crap is so overplayed with tattoo's, I'd never dream of putting it on my car. But, whatever.

Eh, it doesn't look that bad. The car is dark enough that you don't notice it much. I myself prefer clean looking cars with no decals or stripes.

Since your car is dark, a set of smoked 01+ headlights would look really good

Melinda,
When you put it up on StangNet you have to allow for getting flamed!
I can only hope you look like Pamela Anderson...cuz otherwise the barbed wire doesn't make a lotta sense.
Still love ya though

I knew I'd get flamed, but I like the way it turned out, so I wasn't worried about it. I don't look alot like Ms Anderson, sorry... but I liked the barbed wire theme, I have it in my tattoo, as well.
It doesn't look as bad as alot of people are thinking, one of the things I like about it is that you have to be right up on the car to see it. If you're 10 or 15 feet back, it doesn't look like it's there at all, because the car is dark. Smoked headlights are in the plans, as well as black FR500's, and when the car gets a full repaint in 09 there will be no pinstripes and am considering going wingless and badgeless at that point.

Not a bad start. Although that money coulda went towards smoked headlights, tint, springs, chin, etc.

God, I hate thinking about all the money I've dropped in my car...

Yep, I know. If it was up to me, the next mod would have been gears, then springs, but since I'm not allowed to spend money on the car til next summer, these were inexpensive things I did for a fix... Already had tried with "my headlights are looking a little old, think I need new ones" and got "No you don't, they're fine" and when he said I could beat the neighbor in a race I said "I'm not sure, really think I need the gears for that". He said "well, that's only a year away", etc etc... He has an answer for every part I say I need
I was getting tired of standing in the wax section at pep boys to find something new for the car.

why don't you save up your nickels and dimes...then sneak out and get one of the mods that you aren't "allowed" to get....puts you ahead of the game.
