I need your opinions on some appearance mods. I want to change a few things up.
Picture #1 Here is the car as it sits now
Picture #2 I wanted to add the gloss black roof wrap
Picture #3 I was thinking of adding the hood accents
Picture #4 to tie it all in, I was going to switch to the black chrome FR500 wheels
Please let me know your thoughts. Be honest becuase I am not sure this is the direction I want to go. thanks!

I like the roof idea and wheels. Not really feeling the good strips

Roof wrap is badass, and that's all I would do.

Sean - I think your car looks very classy as it sits. I love the deep dish look on the rears. Not a fan of the hood graphics. Black roof - maybe? Wheels - the FR's are nice but for all that extra $ I don't know if I'd pull the trigger. I guess I'm not that much help!

I've said it before this is one of my favorite new edges on here. I wouldn't change a thing. Car looks perfect. Well, I would tint it...

So the wrap and nothing else?

Thanks for the compliment! I agree, a trip to the tint shop may be necessary.

Thanks Ron but you are not helping :)

No vinyl. Same wheels in chrome and remove all badging.

i wouldnt go with any replica wheels, i think they are all cheap...just my opinion. i think the bullitts are better anyways and a lot of people have the fr500s...be different. that roof wrap looks interesting, and i always like the two-toned new edges. i would go with a new hood before putting graphics on it...

Yup, but I'm a little biased cause I had tons of compliments when I had it done to my Cali.

What kind of hood? I didn't think there are too many options for a new edge

i like the terminator hoods a lot. there are a decent amount out there, but i think PactonShelby is going in the right direction with that smaller pulley...

Black roof for sure! I love the wheels you have on it now. If you were to do a different hood, go 2000 Cobra R hood. best imo!

You're car is almost identical to mine. I would steer clear of the hood accents. I like the roof wrap, not to bad. The wheels aren't cheap, so if it is something you see as a must, then go for it. If not, save and just tint the windows! 24158
I wouldn't do anything to it, I think it looks great as is.

Thanks for all the compliments guys! I am still confused what to do. Maybe I will just add more boost!

Dark window tint, gloss black roof vinyl, and gloss black saleens. That's my vote!

2000GT….the car looks amazing the way it sits, I have seen it in person, no need to change it but…... I understand that we all get the bug to modify our cars because we stare at them everyday and regardless of how good they look to other people they get old to us. So with that said, I vote for tint the windows, 03/04 cobra spoiler from LRS (or just delete your spoiler) and a set of black SVE series 1 wheels. Just my 2 cents and a picture to show what I had envisioned.

wrap the whole roof including the sides around the window in gloss black
wrap the rear spoiler and the hood scoop in gloss glack
get gloss black gt500 wheels
then add boost

Thanks guys! I think i will just keep the way it is for one more year. I came home today and discovered my pool liner ripped. There goes $700 from my Mustang fund! :irked:

Does your pool liner do burnouts on the main drag? No.
