I don't even start my chameleon flame stripes until my heat extractors and then again on my torneaus...anything you put on the bumper or the edge of the hood is just gonna get hit up by road debree no doubt

speaking of squirells! i hit a skunk(haha) and when i pulled over it was stuck to the bumper and my intercooler. that was a smell i thought was never going to get away from my car. smelled for at least 2 weeks. and sometimes on a hot day you can still smell it a tad!

at the skunk....



on a side note, what does that glasspack sound like on your singleport? i think the stripes would look good on the bumper, but look good now, so if it aint broke don't fix it until it is? just be glad your not in va, where the front plate is required.

in a way it kinda sounds like an older mustang(muscle era) but with less growl to it

You know every mustang I see has racing stripes down the middle of the car, has anyone every thought about maybe putting Shinoda Boss stripes on their 'Stang? It looks good if done right, the racing stripes, but everyone has them and they are just getting played out. Time for something different. No offense to you guys, it's just that with all the mustangs these days it's hard to find ways to stand out from the crowd.
