Well here are the rims on my stang for those that wanted pics, I just got them put on today. I have a large shipment of parts that I just bought that will be getting here later this week with my new clear headlights, boston acoustic z6 mids and highs, 200 sq ft of sound deadener, and billet grills for the front facia and cobra bumper so Ill post up some more pics once I get everything installed. Im also ordering the alpine iva-w200 double din head unit, getting a cobra r hood and probally a saleen wing so Shes finally coming together... whoever approved to give me that credit card last night is in big trouble now! lol

Those rims look sweet, gotta love the DD! What are they anyways? (maybe I missed your previous thread if you posted that already). They seem to be tucked-in somewhat in the front though (inward of the fender lip) which is kind of unusual for a mustang, what are the dimensions (width, backspacing, etc...)? And yes, that thing is deffinetly slammed :nice:
Should look bonerific with the rest of the mods you just listed :rolleyes:
 
The rims are from ruff racing, I cant think of the name of them right now but I got them from ebay... 18x8.5 front and 18x9.5 rear with I beleive a 20mm backspace on all 4, theyre replicas of the steeda ultralight II's. Im not using dynomat Iv allready ordered 200sq ft of fat mat... its not bad, I used 100 sq ft on a freinds monte carlo install and it helped a lot. Yea it is low but thats how I like it and once I get the air ride technologies kit Ill be able to lift it a little for driving comfort.
 
Thanx for all the comments guys, to answer all your questions... The saleen spoiler that Im getting is real low key so it wont stand out too much. Im using fat mat for the reason that Im using so much and dynomat is way over priced... I paid $180 for 32 sq ft that I installed into the car and Im paying $250 for 200 sq ft of the fat mat. The rims would look better on a darker car, I intend on painting it once I get everything done... Im gunna spray it two tone, black and a dark metallic grey split at the middle body line with a dark silver pinstrip to separate them I just havnt decided on which will be on top and which on the bottom... Does anyone knows how to use photoshop that can give me and idea of what the two paint shemes would look like?
Last, about the double din... no Im not changing to the new style console, Im going to customize my factory one to allow the w200 to fit using the factory location and a/c control area and im going to move the a/c controls to the bottom where I currently have my eq.
So you guys know how extreem Im going with this car heres a pic of my factory dash(for now) and current setup that I built into my rear seat...Im not done yet

those wheels are freakin hot! I love them. What sort of price range are they in? The rest of the car is lookin great, cant wait to see it with the rest of the appearance mods :nice:

I will be jealous as hell when you get the air ride kit, thats one of my goals someday.
 
Rims only ran me $750 shipped but the tires are used ones I got for $300. The new ones will cost me more than the damn rims did but Ill get them once these ware out. The only reason I can afford the air ride technologies kit is because the the owner of the shop that Im getting it from is giving me a once in a lifetime deal. Hes in need of some money real bad and allready has the kit there, someone with an sn95 ordered it through them then backed out of the deal, and the owner wants me to do the custom fabrication for his audio system thats going into a sick ass custom astro van that hes building for show
