A guy that is doing alot of our club cars actualy wanted to trade lights with me and I was more then happy. He ownes a body shop so he did it after hours and it was a straight even trade so cost me nothing.

.....much, much better!!

any news on those Saleen wheels yet???

The more I look at that wing, the more I grow to like it. I think the main reason people didn't car for it was due to all excessive stuff that the car had. Now that you have replaced a few things with much nicer looking things, the wing looks more in place. It kinda reminds me of a 99-04 Saleen S351/E/04SC wing from the sides. Just the rear mounting point over the deck lid looks a little unusual.

I think the rear end of the car would look 1000 times better if you were to replace those small dinky looking tips with a set of tips that fill out the rear valance properly....If you could find the Saleen Borla catbacks that would look the best. However, I know how difficult those are to find at times, maybe a nice set of Magnaflow or Borla 3" tips would do the trick. Anyone else have any ideas??.....................

Yea new tips are plans before mustang week. Honestly I wasn't sure about the wing when I first put it on there but it grew on me after I kept looking at it. Umm the email adress was wrong it came back unknown.....?

??? That's strange. Let me make a few phone calls and get back to you on that one........

Honestly this car has potential. Listen to what the guys are saying on here. Tailpipes would fill the rear in better. Wheels and you are set. I like the paintjob the more I see it.

Car looks a lot better with the new lights. THe rear wing isn't horrible, but a Saleen wing would look cleaner. Car's looking good though.

I like it better with the black lights. Not complaining, but to be correct they should be flat and not gloss black, but it still looks good....I like it.

I like the black better, but I would have gotten a set of 96-98 lights w/ the stock red lenses. Then again, those are my favorites so I'm a bit partial. I've never been a big fan of the 3/horizontal style (94-95), but they are much better then the Euro ones you had...

...if memory serves me correctly, the replacement plastic bezel overlay that Saleen use to sell came in gloss black. The complete taillight housing that came on the car new was flat. So either way, gloss or flat, is correct...

don't worry Lambo, I've got your back....

don't worry Lambo, I've got your back....

Thanks. I had a set of the 96-98 but it just showed so much light I wanted somthing that didn't show so much red light. Plus I LOVE the way these look at night.
