    The stang looks good although I prefer to see more tire on the rim. But that is just my opinion. I guess it is just a age difference thing. That why you are getting some of the responses that you are.

    Weld racing had some sweet 19x11 and 19 x 9 for the car. I dont dig the cooler falling out of the bottom, but overall I like the car.

    I have 17" rims on my 70 fastback is that rice?...no its not. It enhances the look and gives better stability of the vehicle. I think that chop looks tight. Now if they only made that front bumper......

    Its not that bad. I don't like the grill delete, the TYPE of rims, and the cooler shown between the bumper is actually rice. Sorry but thats what it is. Fill in that bumper.

    For a grille I'd LOVE to have a regular type honeycomb one with an offset mustang logo in the corner. That'd be slick. No chrome or anything though.

    "Ridiculously oversized wheels and the giant exposed intercoolers scream rice to not just me, but practically everyone I know. Yes 20" wheels on '60's muscle cars is rice."

    Agree somewhat. Same thing I said basically. I do think huge rims are too bling or too rice but some big thick rims like on a vette....those are to die for. If they fit under the fenders then get em wide with some wide tires. Skinny tires that are real tall look stupid. But if they're tall and wide (18"s are the tallest I'd go). I just dont like the TYPE of rim they have on there. Just looks stupid. I personally like the ones on the GT500. Those look slick.

    Just get thick wheels on those 60's muscle cars. not big ol' chrome ones. Blah

    I don't see rice, but I don't like the IC. Paint it black, and you've got a hott car. And clear turn lenses, instead of amber, would look gorgeous, giving a b&w appearance. But definitely a more subtle-appearing IC.

    The wheels are way too big and I can't stand huge exposed intercooler. If I had an intercooler like that for some form of forced induction then I would have it hidden as best as I could without preventing airflow. If you want everyone around you to know what you are running with then that is fine by me though. Then again if you were using a turbo setup then the bov probably would have taken care of that already, lol. As long as you like it though.

    Looks ok, but im not a fan of big rims...18 is the max for me on the 05s...17s on the 04s.

    Down the rim and make the IC aluminum coloured then it would look AWSOME.

    i think the IC color is alumn. he just put the reflection of the sun on it. so it makesi t look polished/chrome.

    after looking at it, those 22" rimsare a tad too big. to a 20/19 combo and itll look tight. Hell if they made all that stuff, i'd build that car! - Roger
