As for those of you who think i went back to "stock" to please others, your wrong. I could care less what they think. I did it for the simple fact that getting your *** wooped by a mustang or what ever, doesn't feel good. Especially when your car "looks" fast, but ain't. Now when they step up, i have a better chance of either winning or keeping up. Who's with me?

Do what you like man. I think it's 1/2 way there, only because the bumpers are unpainted. It DOES look better.

There's some pretty buff Mustangs out there that will smoke your generic LS turbo Hondas. Just because it's a Mustang doesn't mean it's slow, just because it's a Turbo Honda doesn't mean it is fast (although there are many fast ones out there, don't get me wrong).

I find this funny, because the guy probably doesn't realize that there are hundreds of 700+ RWHP very streetable mustangs out there

Looks a lot better now, specially without that wing
