Can This thing even be called a mustang anymore?

I have a mustang magazine from back in 94 that has acouple of fox bodies with a wide body kit that had T-bird headlights.. I thought they were cool back then.. ill have to find it and see if I still feel the same

That's gotta be about 200 to 300 pounds of extra ABS plastic and fiberglass sitting on that thing ... and it's not even a completed body kit!

I've seen maybe one or two body-kitted Mustangs before that looked semi-decent, but they were more subtle projects that didn't attempt to make the car look like a large-scale Transformer toy in "disguise" mode.

That red 'vert had to've stolen its front fascia design from Darth Vader's mask. Ugh.

The only total re-body of a Mustang that should be performed, IMHO, is one of those Factory Five Cobra kits ... and basically the only parts that survive are the motor/tranny, just about everything else is fab'ed. There's only so much you can do different on these cars before they cross that line between different and dumb.
