    A year after receiving the pieces, the bodykit is finally done. There's a few small issues that need to be addressed, but nothing to stop me from taking pictures. Hopefully within a week or two we'll get a nice sunny sunday and I'll get some good pictures. I can't believe it's done...

    I like the stripes and most of the car. I'm sorry, but I just don't care for the Eleanor front end. I think it's overdone. The rest is beautiful.

    I agree the Eleanor front end is a bit much but I do like the look in that colour, and I think those wheels look fantastic with that kit.

    Thanks for all the comments. We definitely are happy with it. Next year we may purchase some Shelby CX67's in antricite. But yeah, I think the Mach 1's look great for now.

    Great looking car! Mind if I ask how much that cost for parts & labor?

    The car is mineral gray. the stripes are 2 shades darker on the color wheel. I don't know what the name is. The pearl is a light/medium blue. Just one thin coat to help the stripes show up.

    Parts were $3660 from Cervini's
    I installed the exhaust system myself. The paint and labor for the kit and stripes ran $2500 including the calipers.

    Those are AFS Mach 1 wheels. I'll most likely replace them next year with staggered wheels. Probably Shelby CS-67's or Cobra III's.

    My thoughts on "body kits" is the looks are great but the low clearance is a no no. Mainly due to street curbs and road kill.
    Will your insurance cover damage on modified cars? I dought it unless its a special policy or collectors type insurance. My stock stang just misses the curb when I pull up at the stores now.
    Be careful dude!
