Very cool. Did you have to disable the automatic mirrors? Personally, I like my stock F150 sized mirrors for all the blind spots.

If the Contour is a SVT, its one helluva second car.

You sure you wanted a Mustang and not a Honda? That's some serious San Francisco treat right there.... Sorry.

I hate the mirrors and I hate the rims. The mirrors are just too small for the car. I know everybody bitches about how they are gigantic or something, but that small and it just looks funny.

The wheels are fine...minus the ricer red lip. Have the lip chrome or polished and it looks 100000000000000x better.

I like the rest, it's very particular with your style but it's done purposfully which I can appreciate. I do have to echo some of the comments, those mirrors are I dunno, out of place on that car.

Love the Countour too, I have almost bought one of those a couple times, if not for the pricing at the time (too much around here) and the anemic legroom in the back I'd be down for them, they are a blast to drive!

Wana-be...

Wow you got a lot of red inside... I've never seen that red dash applique before.

Take my advice, ignore the jagoffs that have replied with inconsiderate posts. They are childish and juvenile and just looking to start a fight. They obviously have never heard the addage that "if you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all."

Understand that most people on this board are considerate but there are a handful of jerks. I'm not going to name names, but they love to slum on threads like this and criticize wherever they can (even though their Mustangs are nothing special).

Here's the deal. Personally, you made some touches that I wouldn't have. But it doesn't matter one iota what I think. If you love your stang, it looks great.

This reply is simply to offer some backup on your post since I have also been blasted by the juvenile pricks here.

It's aggravating, but realize that those people are simply degenerates that have rather large chips on their choulders.

Not digging the mirrors at all. I personally wouldn't do the red lip on the wheels, but it does seem to work with the rest of the car. Overall, pretty nice.

I actually dig the red lip wheels. They fit the look of your car. I don't care for the mirrors either, but if you can see well enough with them and like them...that's all that matters!

Those mirrors are about the only thing I don't like. I like the black and red combination. It's sinister.
