As already covered .... the 96-98s had their issues. But, for the most part great cars. SRT Handz pics are awesome. Official press/coffee table book quality!!!
The stock look is still hot, especially cleaned and slightly lowered.
As for rims .... everyone will ave their own opinions on what looks good.
I need to get some more recent pics. I'll be putting a Saleen body kit on it this winter now that I have the KB SC installed. (Going to fire it up tonight for the first time)
Some shots of my '97 Gt, I hope to have some new smoked headlights soon, but this is how it looks now. These aren't the most recent pics, but nothing has changed since I took these.
Not to hijack or anything, but how many options were there for '97 & '98 interms of color/texture on the 17" wheels?
So far i've seen:
1) Chrome(only seen it twice) DTNODYA is the 2nd time.
2) Non clearcoat. Looks like what GDawg has, may or may not.
3) Clearcoat(like mine)
4) Clearcoat w/ black. Like what fvcrew22 has.
Here's my contribution for now. As soon as i fine my camera I'll post some more recent ones.
edit:
The car has been great over the years. No problems with reliability, i have 126,000+ miles. The worst thing that has happened is the cracked intake manifold, but that is just an excuse to start modding more...
My car is definitly nothing special compared to any here, however I guess i'll share a few horrible-quality photographs.

No longer have the "MUSTANG GT" decal. It's been gone for a while though at times I feel like purchasing another. I had a white one before the red, though it stood out quite a bit. I took the red one off due to me not installing it properly and a few letters had some wrinkles.

I'm considering painting some parts on my car black also. What are your opinions on this? I left the "possible" painted parts without color

It's just a thought and I haven't really considered it all that much
