You're off to a great start. A kit and wheels and it won't look so unfinished. Nice work.

The wing looks good. I'm glad you like it. It was a ***** to pack that thing, but at least it made it in one piece. Your paint guy did a great job with the match. It looks perfect.

Since you painted the plug, I would use it. Too many brake lights going on there.

With the more aggressive wing you're definitely going to have to start looking at side skirts and bumpers. Lowering it and some wheels wouldn't hurt either It's a slippery slope from here....

Thanks Deputydog for the compliment. My body guy is the one working on my Mustang. He has an outstanding reputation in the Mustang/Shelby community here in the Midwest and was able to fit my wing in right away. Here are some pictures of the beginning of my Mustang restoration. It’s my High School car and has no rust on it but it sat in my parent’s back yard for eight years while I was on active duty. It’s not a Mach 1 but it came stock with the Hurst shifter, competition suspension, louvers, rear deck spoiler and surf board door with fold down back seat. It has 72,000 miles on it’s 351 C. I am adding a shaker hood to it.

Paul

Thank you all for the suggestions and I will probably do them in time. Just need to figure out what to do first and what I can afford.

Thanks,

Paul

Nice wing, not my style though. But thats the whole point. Make your car YOUR car. The fun is making the car unique.
