Body Styling Review

fhinesley · January 10th, 2007, 10:06 AM

I am new to site. Have a 2004 GT Convertible. I am going to do some body styling on it. three questions:

1)What is best site (reputable) for extrior body styling parts
2)Any help on what not to do. I like the look of the 40th anniversiary edition. I would like to modify it some though. What is the best manufacturer
3)I am getting some Goodyear F1-G3 tires for it. What is the largest wheel size you would recommend. Obviously I have stock 245/45 - 17" on now.

Great site....I appreciate the help

get some 10.5" rims for the back and slap some big ol' 315 meathooks out back

what was said above. as far as body kits go if you stay with roush, saleen cobra, you will be fine.

Check out Cervinis.com. They will even let you mix and match. I was told they sell quality stuff. You can occasionally catch a good deal or two on ebay. Find the name of the kit you want then do a google search. Erebuni makes some nice stuff too.

Cervinis and Abc exclusive both sell quallity parts. I have used both companies before and was very pleased with their stuff.

Personally I would

Roush 360R (Stage 3) front bumper

Some rims...Deep Dish in the rear...

And theres the exterior...

Since you have a vert I would also get a toneau cover and a light bar...But that would be it...

Personally I wouldn't change the exterior drastically with a body kit or what's the point of having the car you bought? If you don't like the way it looks don't buy it. Now I would agree with Chris not too many people have the 360R front bumper. The wider 10.5 wheels will do you get in the department of grip with wider tire. Other than the other stuff Chris mentioned I would leave it at that.

Man, do what you want with the car. Sounds like you don't want to be that guy in a parking lot with other Mustangs where everybody looks alike. I hate it when someone pulls up to me at a light with a car that looks too much like mine. Everything isn't about a race. Some people like style. A body kit will help you make the car your own. There's nothing wrong with that. If you want a body kit, get a body kit. Just keep one thing in mind; you have to be seen in it. Don't over do it to the point where you are laughed at when you pull into the lot. My 2 cent.

This is how I feel that is what i went with when I did mine. I don't like looking like everyone else so I had to change.
