A couple of questions


Ok so i have a black 2005 V6, i wanna do a lot of style mods to the engine and interior.

Where is the best place to get chrome pieces for the engine and interior?

I wanna add some color to it so i was thinking blue but im not sure what to make blue on the interior. The engine would have blue wire tubing and spark plug wires and a black plenum cover.


Any help would be great.

My first tip is remember its a mustang and not a ricer. If you plan on adding chrome or something pick up a chrome CAI.

nah, chrome in engine isn't ricer but don't put Neon or any of those manufacture stickers on your 1/4 panels and stuff. i have a friend who turned his V6 into a little Japanese toy. he put neon on the bottom, interior, license plates. he put stickers on his panels and even one that has his name (Monroy Racing). it's an embarassment

...chrome in your engine bay ricer? haha have you ever been to a classic car show they dress those things up with so much chrome and add neons to make the chrome "pop" Chrome is not even close to making it a ricer. And stickers...stickers dont make it rice either...unless you dont make the stickers match/flow with the car...

a couple basic caps and stuff:

These guys have lots of different covers and bolt kits and such.. not all chrome, but still nice, and wouldn't be hard to polish or have dipped:

I agree that dressing an engine to look nice isn't exclusively 'ricer'... but all of the good pre-made engine dress kits are for ricers. To get the same effect on your mustang, you're going to need to spend some money and have some stuff dipped, or fabricate/polish your own shit.

I never said chrome was for ricers. I was referring to a blue interior. Thats why I suggested some chrome to stay true to the mustang history. Mustangs are made to look classy and roast some ricer @ss.
