That's some great work there. I don't like the skinny stripes, but everything else is fantastic.

Agreed. I would of gone a tad bit bigger but seriously, the interior is the sex.

Ford should take some lessons from this, if not too late. GM did it as an option for the Vette finally. All leather wrapped interior instead of the Fisher Price plastic.

There's a local shop here in SOCAL I am looking at to get my interior wrapped as well. Looking close to $4500 for doors, dash, console, and rear panels. Never thought about doing the rear deck though. Looks great man!

That's hot man... very nice!

I just checked into doing my seats, but no one around here will do them because of the side air bags

Looks great! Just curious... if you are going that custom, why did you start with a Roush rather than a base GT? It seems like a lot of the cost of the Roush was wasted by "undoing" a lot of the Roush mods.

Trick or treat...

As others have mentioned, the original color is much better..

Otherwise, I am thoroughly impressed.. The attention to detail, and the amount of work completed.. WOW!

My two other cars are lambo orange, so we just decided to customize them with the same color in the exterior and interior.
