    Help Buying a Car w/ Nitrous

    I am looking at some foxes in my area, and some of them have nitrous kits installed. I am worried about the owners having abused the juice, and am wondering what things I can look for when inspecting the cars to see if that is the case. I don't want to merely be discouraged from purchasing these...

    Emblem Alignment Holes

    I have an 04 GT w/ the 40th anniversary emblems removed. I would like to know if the 05-07 pony fender emblems have the same alignment hole pattern, as they are far easier to get than an era specific emblem. Thanks for your input.

    Saleen Kit Installed! Pics Inside

    that's the dirt i was talking about. it's spotty in places because i was rubbing against it alot during the install, thus rubbing some of the dust off. i slaved over this in a very small garage where space was a prized commodity.

    Saleen Kit Installed! Pics Inside

    she is a very dirty beast, the poor quality camera might be contributing somewhat to it as well. i assure you the paint match is quite superb, the guy really did a nice job matching it.

    Saleen Kit Installed! Pics Inside

    They are 18" wheels. Yes it is a real ram air hood. And yes, having a real saleen or cobra is much better than having a clone. But this is by no means a clone. I only ordered the saleen brand stuff because it had all the appropriate mesh grating I wanted to achieve my desired look. Plus I didn't...

    Saleen Kit Installed! Pics Inside

    thanks for all your kind words, though some of you don't like the hood, as one of you said I was going for something a little unique. the saleen hood is way overpriced, and i dig on dual ram air hoods. the hood pins are faux by the way, not willing to drill holes in my expensive new hood.

    Saleen Kit Installed! Pics Inside

    Oddly enough it already is. I put H&R springs on her a while ago, supposedly 1.5" in the rear and slightly more in the front was dropped. Those are 18" wheels. Didn't quite get the effect I was going for, but the steering geometry is still right, and I don't scrape my subframe connectors over...

    Saleen Kit Installed! Pics Inside

    Just got finished installing my Saleen ground effects and Cervini's hood, took it out of the garage to take a few pics for you all. She's going into the body shop shortly to fill the holes left by the 40th anniversary badges on the fenders. She hasn't been washed in a bit either, so please forgive.

    Flush Fitting Seat Delete

    Anyone know of a rear seat delete that fits flush with the upper plastic trim piece there in the backseat? All the kits I've seen either eliminate that upper plastic trim, or are sunken in to where the original seat bolted to. Both of those options are not appealing to me. I'm looking for...

    Saleen Wing Install Help

    I just got my saleen kit prepped and painted and everything seems to be in order, except for the wing installation instructions. I have an 04 mustang, and purchased the 99-00 saleen wing. I know I need to drill holes for the new wing, I already had the body shop fill and paint the old spoiler...

    Plastic Plug Puller

    Anyone know where to purchase one of these tools? Saleen recommends using a plastic plug puller/ panel puller for the removal of the current body panels so as not to damage the plastic christmas tree plugs I assume. While I know it is certainly not necessary, and new plugs can be readily...

    Strut Tower Brace installed

    No camera right now. I can assure you it strikes a startling resemblance to every other STB you've ever seen installed on a new edge.

    Removing Emblems/ Badges

    I've read through a few posts and found conflicting stories. I have a 2004 Mustang GT. I'd like to remove the GT emblem on the deck lid, the Ford blue oval on the deck lid, and the two 40th anniversary badges on the fenders. What is the correct process for removal? Do any of them have the...

    Thoughts on new MGW shifter

    Just got done installing MGW's short-throw shifter on my 2004 Mustang GT w/ Tremec's 3650, and I am impressed. First of all it was packaged very well, not even UPS could hurt this baby the way they packed it. The installation instructions were very detailed, with very helpful pictures. The...

    Urethane or Fiberglass Wing

    I have an 04, I planned on purchasing the one as shown in the picture. I've got my mind made up about that, I don't like the other two styles of Saleen spoilers for my year, so there's no convincing me other wise on that. It's that wing, and all I still need to know whether fiberglass is ok for...
