My Competition Orange V8

[stevec]

Okay,
Having seen it again, I am so happy. It just looks stunning and really what I wanted.
Here is a walk round video,

And more pics

 

[Manders Mustang]

Pics - Red

Video - Orange (probably one of the few things we've seen posted that, unedited, looks orange!!!)

FYI; easily one of the nicest and cleanest (and meanest) visual mods on a mustang in the UK so far, setting the bar high mate!

What's next for the mods? Faux Filler Cap to a blacked out GT logo? Chrome Pony - Black, GT logos to Black?

+ Lots on the love.

The colour first was a wow and now this takes it to a new level.

Need some pics on the seafront blasting down past the pig in paradise - ( if it is still there ) or up the hill to Ore!!

 

[stevec]

Manders,

Yeh, its frustration how orange looks red in pics, really is.

next mods planned are
Front grill change (prob gloss black Trex mesh grill)
Front splitter. Not seen one I like yet (may make one)
Rear deck panel (unsure which one)
Lowered the front 35mm or so (not sure about rear)

Then it on to making it look prettier under the bonnet. Such a shame to have a 5.0 V8 hidden in amongst a load of black plastic!

Cati,

Will be posting more vids now I have remembered my youtube channel password.
I have one filmed from in board of a very scary moment when the rear end decided to step out. Will post it soon.

Are you leaving your lights as they are? Would look really good with tinted lights.

 

[stevec]

I may look at black tints but unlike others, I dont dislike the clear rear lights.

Thanks,

Black Pony? NO!
I get why, it makes complete sense and 100% with what I am doing(especially when you see my next two answers) but I just cant!

The chrome pony is an iconic part of a Mustang. It is Mustang. Do I like it? Not really. Do I love it? not much. Do I love the idea of it? Yes. Its like the silver lady on a rolls or the leaping cat on a jag. It has to stay.

I am considering changing the grill but if I do, I will be putting the Pony back on!

Black 5.0 badges? Yep

Rear Deck panel? Yep, not sure which one yet but I will be changing.

Yes, I want to widen and lower. Waiting to see what others do first though

Do as I did, put the chrome pony on the rear because lets face it the rear of this car is what most people are going to be seeing. ;)

If the weather would improve I would go out and fit my spacers and take some photos.

I have 23mm and 25mm here. I have 8mm on the way and shall also order an 18mm set. I shall then do trial fits to see what works best.

Ive got smoked tints for the rear lights if you want them, £20.

Really liking the painted black parts mate, everything blends in nicely with the wheels and the rear deck lid . Got TBH though, not a fan of the roof spoiler BUT each to their own mate and as long as you like it then that's all that matters. Looking forward to seeing the changes for real and not on camera

If Steve is not interested then send me a pm please. Which kit did you buy?

 

[stevec]

Cheers stark. Yeh, I get that with the roof spoiler. I have always loved them though.

I have just one problem actually. The side skirts stick out too far! Not looks wise. they look great but its easy to catch your foot on them getting in and out the car. Could be a right pain. I will get used to it but not sure about passengers. I can see the paint getting scratched and damaged!!!

I am not going to take them off but well, just but!

Knew this was going to look good, but it looks GREAT. I'm really tempted to do this as well now. The gray plastic could definitely be better. Looks really sharp and very contrasted. Love it.

 

[Col3371]

Lovely. Truly sets the Orange off well for contrast.

Love the Rocker (sill) decals with the pony on them. I'm planning on getting some for my ruby when it comes but could only find plain stripes from American Muscle. Where did you find yours, if you don't mind me asking?
