Yep, that's what i want and actually why i run the ARE's, i just haven't had the cash for new rims yet. Right now i'm working on getting the interior to look as good as the outside, and hopefully by spring i'll be ordering new rims and tires. It also really needs tint.
What color tint are you figuring on?
You mean window tint? Just black i guess
Take a look at the brown and copper colors before settling on one.
Yeah i like some of the tan looking tints on certain colors but with green i'm not sure that would work...plus there's a green/black theme going on with the window trim and grill being black already. I do know i'm not gonna go full black limo style with it but it's going to be pretty dark. I have to replace the driver's side window first from where the painter scratched it up with a DA sander
Sometimes, tint shops have plastic overlays you can use to get a preview. You're definitely going to need to figure that piece out in-person though. I'm sure that the color of your car is 3 shades of wrongness between your camera, image optimization, and my monitor. lol
Man you said it. I do think this particular photo session caught the best example of what the color really looks like. Even still i can't help but think the guy mixed paints to get this color because it's pretty far off from the color i requested. I've parked my car next to a Lexus that has the color i wanted and they're very different so i dunno. In some lights it's a pale olive green color and in other lights it's a very bold almost forrest green color.
I actually came to say the same about the wheels and badges, i love the hell out of your car and i think it only needs a little more to be
a real stunner. but it seems like youre already on top of it. a tinted badge (sounds stupid but works if done right ) or a black ford badge would do the trick up front since smoothing its no longer feasible.
for some reason i thought of these wheels, maybe not the specific wheel but the color and finish would look killer on your car
yeah, id be against throwing badges on the sides since its so clean, but thats not to say it would look bad in the least bit. i think the black emblem would go well up front. Just considering its a dark paint, and a green/grey/silver/whateverthehell color i think black would do well. Cant beat CCWs, maybe a set of the classics in the finish like the ROHs (i think thats what i posted haha).
otherwise the car has come a long way and youd have a hard time ruining it no matter what direction you go
Gotta have the 5.o. Period. Funny, but I've thought the same "badge of honor" thought myself. When I bought my car it came with an uninstalled pair of coyote 5.0 badges, and I wound up mailing them back to the guy I bought the car from... Origional 5.0 badges for me!!
Hell yes. I take pride in the fact that the new cars are copying my 5.0 badges. The 5.0 badge is the Fox's version of BOSS302/351/429, HIPO289 etc badges, and you wouldn't build one of those cars without proudly sporting those badges. I considered going with a 5.7 badge since it has a 347 but i think 5.0 says more than just how many liters the engine has in it.
