I Like the black spoiler, it blends with the black 'defuser' part on the back bumper! Why such low profile on the tires ? 40 would look better IMO. Clean SVT!
ps.
You spent $100 on just that ONE piece on the dash ?!?

Yes less vinyl. We all know its a svt contour. There is no need to have it on there.
Nice car though.
Also paint that spoiler.

We may know what it is, but I'd have to guess about 75% of the general population don't.

I concur-- With the rubberbands you have around those wheels there is far too much gap, looks funny.

Pros: Clean, like the wheels, like the Mustang Mach1 black spoiler
Cons: rubber band tires, fog lights sticking out too much, hood/drivers headlight out of alignment

And it's fun to keep it that way.
Maybe he's tired of people asking why he put a body kit on a Taurus. :laugh:

or if its a 4 door mustang
Black spoiler is a sharp touch. Different, but effective. I vote for the continued presence of the SVT windshield banner and against lowering the car. Next time around at the tire store, see if a jump in profile works for you.
Bottom line, its your car -- enjoy.
'Tis sharp, to be sure.

to answer everybody.
I spent (well wasted) $100 bucks on the dash kit. it wasnt that one peice it was 6 peices the one around the radio, around the headlight swtiches and then all four doors. ehhhh
I like that it says SVT cotnour cuz i dont have to explain to dumbies that its not a taurs with a body kit on it n crap like that.(have been asked that a few times n i hate it) how ever i think i am going to ditch the huge red one and mayb get "parkedcar" to make me a smaller one idk like 10-12" inces long in white or silver so it dosent stand out as much.
onto the tires yes i have 215/40/17 FUZION ZRI`s. I love the way they handle and look. They handle like a champ and have a very firm solid feel. Eventualy I will be getting 18" OZ Suprelegras(sp?) with 225/35/18 Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Pole postions.
To help out with the wheel well problem I will be doing a full suspension overhaul replacing all of the struts to either bilstiens or konis , eibach springs, polyurathane bushings, and front & rear strut tower bars. this will give the car a nice lowered stance and will make my low pros look even better.
finnaly they hood is a lil messed up from the previous owner. So the body shop said they could fix all of the gaping with the drivers side fender and hgood for $80 bucks so ill get that done soon.
thank you for all of the coments : )

If I may suggest keeping your $80 and getting a 10mm socket (or wrench if you prefer) and adjusting the hood yourself. It will take you 5 minutes to get it right.
