    Alright so I am trying to build the best looking 4cyl I can for the least amount of money. I spent very little on an absolutely mint car, with only 25,000 miles when I got it, and now I happened apon some pony rims with 245/50/16 tires (free). I still need to balance them (free) and get some wheel spacers for the front (they dont rub, but dont look perfect yet) and then the wheels are done. I might repaint them sometime, but for now they look great at 5 feet away! Tell me what you think, and if someone can photoshop some tint on there Id appreciate it!!!

    Good looking car. The camera on the ground with the blurry foreground makes it almost look like that the car is a 1:24 scale model lol.

    Those tires look sweet. I can't photoshop it, but I will tell you from experience that tint looks nice on a teal Mustang.

    Hey if you can get me a pic with the windows up I'd be more than happy to photoshop it for ya. Lemme know if there's anything else you want (lowered, simple graphics, painted wheels, clear corners, etc.) Tint is definitely nice to have. It makes just about any car look awesome and provides some nice privacy. Just make sure you check out how your local police are with it......I know this from experience.

    I was pulled over once, police didn't question the tint, but my girlfriend (limo tint) just had to have hers stripped and my friend had his limo tint stripped this time last year. Mine isn't too dark; as long as don't have limo I don't think they bother you.

    Look real good, I like the color. Hopefully you lower it some day, then it would be sick. :nice:

    Yeah I might lower it, not sure yet, Hard to part with cash on this one, when I got the 5.0 sitting there. I also have 15% on the 5.0 and never been hounded, so I doubt the 2.3 gets caught. I was going to post up some other pics but ran out of my limit on attachments... I might grab some from my cardomain, but Im almost sure on getting them tinted!

    I have pictures on my cardomain site of the car, but none of the ponys yet. I guess Im just really lazy, and havent gotten around to putting them on there!

    I tried to use one of your pics from cardomain. Did light tint and slight body drop but its kinda hard to tell. Did my best to get the pony's on but it wasn't happening with this angle.

    Thanks looks very good lowered. Maybe I get some lowering springs and drop the 4cyl springs in the 5.0, see if that helps it any!

    Ill have to get some good pony pics sometime in the next week or two...

    Also about selling it, I might if I could get a good shape 5.0 (stock 5-speed) for the same price. But I really dont think Id ever find one for what this car cost me (including the rims), so I might just go for a nice little turbo 2.3 and see what that can do. The car would also be a badass 5.0 swap car, chassis is near mint and only 27,000 on it now!
