i just want a different look. i am tired of the way my car looks.

i saw this one the other day on some forum and i really want to put it closer to stock now lol. (appearance)

My question is... what can i do to make my car better looking.

i have thought about many things. but cant decide on anything. my car looks too cluttered now. i know many will agree. what will clean it up?


pics of my car now

yea i was debating that now. im looking at my photobucket of the various stages of my appearance lol

 

[Avaric3]

take off the blackout panel, the rear window louvers and take off your spoiler for a competition orange termi spoiler

[JustSpeed7]

Yep takeoff rear louvers, buy real aluminum louvers, take off middle blackout panel get a termi rear spoiler, and a termi front bumper, LOL!

First off, I think your car looks amazing. However, after looking at the pictures you provided it does seem that the car is unbalanced in regards to the amount black on the front half vs. the back half. IMO taking off the rear deck blackout panel and putting the stock fuel door (or painting the one you have on now orange) back on will, along with cobra mirrors painted orange will definitely ease the transition. After that, if it's still unbalanced I think that (unfortunately) removing the rear louvers will ultimately provide the look you're going for

take off the louvers, remove the blackout panel, change the taillight tint from blackout to 50%, get 18's in the back, termi front

take off the louvers and get 03 mirrors. game over

i am open to any comments lol. i am probably taking off the rear blackout panel, louvers, and the 3rd brakelight tint, and sidemarker tint.


i saw a guy with the led black 3rd brakelight this weekend at a car show.. didnt look ricey at all.. and looked of great quality.. should i get one?

btw it looks awesome at night.. kinda like the cobra 3rd bl

yea. i realllllllly thought the louvers would look better than they do. mustangvsix pulls them off SO well.. i thought i could.. but i failed lol

i will have 18's in the back by friday.. not changing my front.. even though its tempting seeing the mach in my 1st post. and not sure about the tailight tint yet.

take off the louvers and get 03 mirrors. game over

i keep finding everything BUT cobra mirrors in the for sale's lol...

 

[lildude1089]

go for the 2nd set of pics you posted. your car was the best at that point, the louvers are overkill and you should get slp tips.

i DO have slp lm1's.. lol.. i agree.. i want slp tips... just need a good price on them.

geeze dude, will your car ever have any mod on it for longer then 1 week, lol. But I guess easiest way to clean it up, even though I think the louvers look sweet, would be to remove them, remove the black out panel, and paint the fuel door or put the stocker back on.
