Well I finally took the time to clean the car especially with the really good weather we've been having following Ike. I guess I'll start with a before/after sequence then which shows off the GT500 spoiler (no good pics of it yet and the black chrome wheels). Enjoy

About an inch in the rear only. I bought the Roush springs for the back. The front ones will come soon enough.

Black car? They would look awesome! If I could get my hands on the new Roush Black Jack Black Chrome wheels I'd sell you mine but they're not for sale just yet and I'm flat broke lol.

Well, I'm finally going to be getting my 20x10s in the rear and 285/30s !! Hopefully tomorrow I'll have them mounted, look out for the pictures !! It's funny. The two wheels and tires are almost costing me as much as all four wheels and tires did in the beginning. Nuts !!

Those wheels look awesome, if I buy a 2010 or 2011 I'm getting those.

The car looks great but I would definately lower the front ASAP.

You know if you look at it in person its actually not as bad as it looks if you're on a flat surface nice and even really. That said I'm going to be getting the roush springs and shocks that I'm missing soon so the front gap will close up a bit.

About the wheels black chrome is the way to go. Pictures don't do justice at how great this stuff looks in person. I really want those 427R Black Chrome Wheels..!

Nice stang, though simple, the wheels and spoiler make a big difference.

Yeah amazing how rims and a detail make a world of difference to a car especially a S197.

I'm thinking Roush front and CS rear for it and later on down the line the 427R Black Chrome wheels. that'll look real purty!

Yooo, what's up with you and the Mach bro? We need to take advantage of this weather and go cruisin' sometime.

Nice car walter!!! Love those wheels! They will probably look really good on my CS. You have just given me an idea lol.
