...halo headrests that is ;)

Undecided if these would be a cool addition or not. Always liked these on Mustangs especially 'verts.
Now the other challenge is getting a dye to match the LE seats! Ordered up the "99-00 Dark Charcoal" vinyl dye from Late Model Resto...no good...waaay too light!
Emailing Nathan from LMR back and forth about getting the right color. he's stumped. Checked the SEM catalog & tried their 17083 Dark Charcoal in their Classic Coat line (this is a Ford color)
Still no good....darker than the LMR but still too light.
These seat colors are not black either. Looking at the pic I painted them a combination of the SEM 17083 and their Landau Black...still wrong.

Maybe I should just "leave it alone" with the stock headrests!! :D

I too hate the stock headrests, I have seen the halo headrests and know they fit, but my mind tells me they are the wrong era. So I am not crazy about them. I do have my eyes out for a set of Mach 1 headrests which are much larger from 03-04, and i understand they are a direct replacement. So thats the route i plan to go.

I was just telling my wife the other day that i hope i dont get rearended in this car as there is no support in these seats.
 
I don't like the short stock headrests either, but its not as noticable in coupes as vert's. I love the halos, but I'm like eyespy, they will always be a fox body era look. However the seat do need some additional height.
The mach's would help.


You could always paint the halos silver.....:ban:


RICER!

:D
