Is the '05 GT great or what? Can't wait for the MGW shifter to come out for the '05. | I love it. Sometimes it feels kind of weird when people are staring at you car at the red light. I had people tell that would have never bought sonic blue until they saw mines in person. |

i at first thought your car was black with white stripes. but i realized from your name that you have a sonic blue GT. and then i realized too that for sure because i recognized your Boyd Coddington Smoothie IIs. and i could sense on the tail a hint of sonic blue, but some blacks can look blue in the bright sun light and the white didn't look real white so i thought maybe the blue color wasn't true too.
let me post a pic of your car that shows the color better.
morning and afternoon shots are better than middays. and keep that pesky sun at your back, eh?  your camera doesn't like it otherwise. |

np drewdawg. your car looks poised to pounce. and the lips on your smoothie IIs look hot, hot, hot. you must have the hotties just leaping into your car.
'05 sonic blue, smoothie IIs, rally stripes- it don't get any tighter than your car, imho.
everytime i see your or wldchic's cars i just lose it. they are off the hook. dude, if you can get some high resolution pics on your home page, i'd freak.
i absolutely love your style, dude. enjoy. |

Hey ninoavila or anyone else with the racing stripes... do you guys get the stripes put on from the factory, get them painted, or are they decals... Just wondering...
Thanks |

xNeo,
I do believe a high percentage of the rally striped cars you see are vinyl. nino's is vinyl. i think there are less than 10 out of hundreds that are painted. i heard of one guy getting his painted for a scant $800. most guys are paying upwards of $2,000 to get their stripes painted on.
vinyl stripes are inexpensive and look good enough to me and most others. they are not permanent and will last approx. 3-5 years depending on who you ask. of course your mileage may vary depending on how it is kept and maintained.
vinyl stripes cost anywhere from $99 to about $300 and labor to install them another $200 to $300.
finally, i do believe most stripes are not factory put on. some are dealers installed. the odds are if you see stripes down below the trunk or hood line, they are probably put on by the owner. the factory dealer stripes usually are only on the hood, roof and trunk only for the most part.
as usual, there are exceptions to every rule. galpin ford comes to mind as an exception to the last rule of thumb i stated.  |

ninoavila:
Very sweet ride.
It almost makes me wish I had kept my '95 Cobra R rims. If you ever want to push out the rears flush with the body panels I would suggest Steeda extended race studs and a 5/16th inch spacer.
The stripes are very dramatic and certainly showcase the screaming yellow nicely.
Now just tint your windows black to keep out that intense southern sun and you'll have it made.

I always like the white with blue stripes combo. I always thought it was so cool looking on the 65 & 66 fastback Mustangs. |

Drewdawg or Harrier......

thx Speedylifsavr,
I have Eibach Sportline springs on her. The wheels are Foose Nitrous-20"ers. 8.5"F & 10"R. The tires are BFG KDW2- 255/35F & 285/30R. 295s will slip on no problemo. I went with 285s because the BFG does not have a 295mm in the KDW2 model.
My Nitrous wheels are chrome. Drewdawg's wheels are polished.
Foose has my Nitrous wheel available in a 22X9.5" size now for the '05 Stang! SIC, SIC, SIC. see link: http://www.mhtwheels.com/wheel.cfm?brand=4&cat=112
Drewdawg roles on Boyd Coddington Smoothie II: http://www.billetwheel.com/cgi/wheel...ies&img=2&tn=1
Drewdawg's wheels are the same sizes as mine. Sorry, don't know about the rubber his wheels are shod with.
Actually Speedylifsavr, I will be soon changing my setup to the Weld Forgestar wheels in my avatar. I have been waiting 20 weeks for them. I love the Foose Nitrous wheels to death. But the Welds are forged. The chrome are 30Lb.- very light for a 20"rim. I will be getting the polished version which is even lighter. They are 20x9.5F which i will run 275/30s and 20x11R which will have 305/25s on them. In the future the 11" rear rim will nicely accomodate a 315mm rear tire if it is made. Then I'll be in heaven. |
