S197 is a fairly large car, I’m leaning heavily into the front fender, and I’m not super tall to begin with!
I can see the reflection of your plaid shirt on the fender below your arm - that would be very difficult to fake. It does look slightly out of proportion, though. It's a great picture of a happy Mustang owner and fellow forum member! 👌

I took this one a few years ago in between front grilles. I had to swap this one in that was missing the pony so I could pass inspection as the grille on it previously had lights that were illegal in Virginia.

Fellow Virginian here, what lights in the grill are illegal, Please & Thank You.

How well do the lights inside the grill actually work? I've been thinking about doing something similar to evoke that Elenore vibe... Nice ride, looks great.
Those are not lights , but a reflection from the charge air cooler .

FWIW I understand the reflection rules are even harder to pass.

My driving lamps were tapped into the side marker circuit. It was easier to just delete them over wiring them in properly. They also were unable to be aimed, which would be another cause to reject.

I'm going through Hell myself right now with my 2007 GT500, the emmission system seems to be turned off in the Tune, and I can't seem to reset it, and she runs FABULOUS but won't pass emissions... Sigh... Too many rules, LOL...

Because I am using the oem HP lower splitter paired with aftermarket Mach 1 bumper on my 17, so the lower splitter have space to drill, and easy to install the winglets.

Not a 6G so ineligible, but I recently had professional photos taken with my 2011 S197 5.0 to celebrate my 50th birthday. They turned out amazing!! Beautiful Fall day at Michigan’s Lower Huron Metropark.
