Thank you! I just added a ZL1 add ons wicker bill. Debating on euro tails
I like those wicker bill's! To me euro taillights are hit or miss. On the right car they look really good. I think they would look good on ur car but I'm partial to the oem's on there now. Lol

Mine is euro, I always hated the clear/white tails, bit of the the old Lexus clear lights about them imo here’s a pic before I fitted the red overlays, they just stand out way too much. Don’t do it!

Nothing special but finally got around to adding tint. I’ve got a GT500/Mach one valence to add over the winter.

Red lights look good on red cars. Same logic as blacking out trim/lights on a black car. Same for my white lights looking good on my white car. And same for a particular color lights complimenting or clashing with certain color paint. And there is no "best" color lights any more than any "best" paint color.

@MarkM

Do you have any pictures directly from the side view? I would like to see if your maxton add on helps level out the front end. I am thinking of getting a pp lip. I hate the way the lip/bumper on my stock cs lip points up some. Here is a picture so you'll see what I'm asking for. I added the white line so you can see the front lip angle.

2022 2.3L High Performance Package Fastback
My Race Red isn't an S550 - it's an S197 - but it's the stable mate to my 2022 2.3L HPP+HP, and it's a stunningly beautiful ride! 5.0L GT Premium Convertible, Race Red over Brick Red/Cashmere, California Special front & rear lower valences, Boss 302 rear wheel spats, and Ford Performance GT "track pack" 19x9in wheels finished in gloss black. Currently 12 years old with 105,000mi, not that you'd guess that from the condition of the car!! It's supposedly a "1 of 4" car, according to the Marti Report. This is my "warm, sunny days" toy and it really makes me appreciate just how far the S500 advanced vs. the S197. When my wife and I were expecting our fourth child, I somehow managed to convince her that a Mustang Convertible was a logical choice! We're keeping the 5.0 forever; she's part of the family now. Our kids even call her the "Fifth Child"!

My story was all set on another color. There was a RR Mustang in the showroom. Walked by it a dozen times.

Wanting to see the Mustang color pallet in the sun. My better half and I spent a Sunday afternoon. Finding Mustangs around town for an eyes on viewing, and we found them all.

Following week with the color picked and mind made up. We go to the dealer for one last salesman powwow.

On our way out, passing by the showroom car. My wife says, have you seen the interior? Good question.

True story, stuck my head in the window, soaking in the view. Kid you not, pulled back. Turn to her and said It's going to be RED, and that was it.

Great looking collecting of the RR Mustangs being posted.
The car just looks fast dressed in red, & not all do. I think the Mustang was built for it.
