I usually don't like v6's but I like that. 2 things, though. You changed the rocker panels, but left the front lip black. I think for it to flow properly, either the rockers got to go back to black, or the lip should be painted. And if you're going to have duals, you need some kind of GT bumper. The GTCS would look good if you leave the rockers and paint the front lip, or the GT500 would look best if you go back to black rockers (I know, they're the same bumper but painted differently). The car would flow a lot better, and the back end wouldn't look out of proportion with the rest of the car. The V6 bumper is very thin and that contrasts with the spoiler. Just my .02. Looks good otherwise.

Looks good. Now get a supercharger on there and enjoy the cheap insurance, good mpg and stupid amounts of power.

Thanks for the constructive criticism.

The gt/cs bumper is already on my list of cosmetic upgrades. I do like the way the v6 bumper looks from the rear, but you are right that from the side view the v6 bumper does not hang low enough to look proportionate.

I kinda like the black front fascia though, it looks pretty good to me.

I like the black front fascia, too. But for consistency, I would switch back to black rockers. Glad to hear you're going with the CS bumper. That'll look great.

Car looks great. Ignore the GT comment. Ford sells more V6s than GTs. And the Mustang would have died long ago had it not been for V6 sales. Why can't we like all Mustangs?
What's mounted on your dash, between the center bezels?

I meant nothing by it. Just stating the obvious.

I have my cellphone on a mount to the right of the console near the dash. I think I would not like it right in my face all the time on the actual dash.
Long live all Mustangs.

What's wrong with that? I didn't bash him, or say his car was ugly. Hell, his V6 looks better then my GT! Seems like someones always out to get me....

I think it looks great! I prefer the v6 over there GT for several reasons but most of all, some people around my area think you have to buy a GT or you don't have a Mustang. There are alot of V6 bashers out there. So, be proud of your 6'er and don't let anyone knock ya down. My shoulder's have become very huge since buying my 6 almost 2 years ago....Sweet stang!
