Welcome duder!!! I used to have 98 CSVT but I sold it for more horses. I do miss the taking curves in B-Hills at 50 though! There are meets sometimes you just have to keep checking in.

nice car...I'm not too hot on the svt overlays on the rear tails but looks good. Everytime I see the focus svt rims on a SF it makes me wanna get some...

If you want a stock hood lemme know, Ill gladly take that one off ur hands!!
Posted By: slvrsvt Re: New Contour Owner - 08/15/06 02:13 AM
ya i wont be letting that hood go anytime soon. i really like the hood and i am in search of a trunk lid to go along with it but from what i am told they are few and far between. also i have the bat suspension kit on the car as i am told by the previous owner. my question is, why is it that my car looks like it has a 400 pound chick riding in the back seat. is there a way that i can adjust the front to make it an even clean look?

i would get rid of the ghetto fabulous svt cpvers on the break lights. i am suprised that the cops havent been involved yet. nice car otherwise.

I'm going to second M!key's comment... those tails are just beggin for trouble.. I do like the painted reflector though.

congrats on the car.. they are really fun to drive.

I'm gonna break you!

Anywho, I have some nice OEM tail lights if you want a set. Sell for cheap. Get rid of those ghetto tails ASAP! Just for safety alone!

brake i meant brake. you know what i was talking about. i would like to break those lights!
Posted By: slvrsvt Re: New Contour Owner - 08/15/06 11:09 PM
alright guys so i just got a new set of taillights from a shop down the road from ours. they had a wrecked 98 that was hit in the front so i borrowed the tail lights from them so to speak. i am thinking about keeping the reflector piece painted just because i think it looks nice but what are your guys opinion on what i should do to it?
Posted By: m!key Re: New Contour Owner - 08/16/06 01:08 AM
painted reflector is cool.
Posted By: NVMYSVT Re: New Contour Owner - 08/16/06 10:57 PM
BTW -- just wanted to add that I have an extra stock 98+ reflector in excellent shape here at the house if you want to swap your painted one for a normal red one.

let me know if your interested.

I personally don't like the painted reflector on a silver car

What did that car cost you with the mods?
Posted By: slvrsvt Re: New Contour Owner - 08/19/06 11:50 PM
i actually traded a highly modded pontiac grand prix for it and some cash so it didnt technically cost me anything.
