Paint color guality, grill, headlights, mirrors
Not so good:
Front plate, cheese grater tail lights, red trim around side door windows, holes on hatch where ford emblem was/ needs to be filled, needs to be lowered and get a set of wheels.

Looks good Jamie. I did like the black, but this color will be much easier to take care of. And yes, it needs some polished wheels, kind of like a friend's car has:

Ok I have new 5.0 badges and new Ford Trunk badges to out on,
But its RAINING guys lol, Cant stick it to wet metal
I also HAD to have the tailight painted, They didn't want to, and pleaded with me not too as it took hours to tape them all up,
But I LOVE the GT tails, I hate the LX and Cobra,
and its MY car so its how I want it lol,
The Red is a Ford UK color, Its called Radiant Red, and it does need to be wetsanded and polished,
Im taking it to a detail shop to peform that shortly, but its REALLY glossy and shiny in real life, The camera just isnt picking it up very well,
Front licence plate = HAVE to have in NJ or I wouldnt have it, I dont need tickets,
Springs are coming, and so are new wheels, Ive decided on 99 Cobras,
Should look good
and yes they did everything Red, The door jams, under the trunk, under the hood, (except the engine bay, Thats black)
When I take the motor out Ill paint it red myself, Should be doing that soon,

I have to admit, the hood is a bit bulbous for my tastes. I love the cobra grill insert. Dont care for the gt tails or the red around the windows though. I also wouldnt have painted the cowl vent red. And your rear bumper cover looks warped. There, Im done picking your ride apart. 
The paint quality looks awesome though, and its still a standout car. Oh, and its still a FOX stang, so I give it a 9.5 out of 10 regardless

looks nice, i too woulda left the door trim and mirrors black but thats just cuz it makes the red stand out more....
being as it is i'd tint them windows that'll make it stand out big time....oh and i like the cheesy cheese graters....factory cheesy is sometimes cool........

Factory cheesy is most definately better than aftermarket cheesy. I think it looks good. (ah- fresh paint... I'm so jealous) I also think this belongs in Talk.
Want another set then? I'll be selling the wife's soon. They have good Yoko's mounted too. I never liked them, but they do look good polished up. Somebody in here did it, it was pretty sweet.PNY PWR said:

The cheese graters are staying
I actually like them
Next is the 99 Cobra Rims and 5 Lug with disk all round
should be done hopefully within a month

Thanks, but I'm good on 10 holes. I would love to see a set polished up or refinished. I'm way too lazy to try and polish mine.
Looks good but I too would have left the black trim black, i'm an accent type person and like things to be a little defined as opposed to monochromatic so to speak. Leave the GT taillights, I like them and always have - I don't understand the whole lx tailights move. I would have left it black though, I only wish my black GT looked anywhere NEAR as good as yours did :damnit:
