here's my SVT after the new paint. nothing wild like the jungle SVT in the other posts but I'm happy with how it came out. please excuse the quality of the pics. The paint looks different during different hours of the day, at night the paint looks more gold than orange. I chose the color Saffron Orange which was used on the '98 Volvo C70. Its color is basically a mix between the Autumn Orange you may have seen on last years 2 door Explorers and Rangers and the Gold that was used on the 2001 Acura 3.2 CL.

I haven't decided what grilles I'm going to use yet, but it will probably be the performancefords.com version. I also have smoked out sidemarkers from the Saab 9-5 that look really good. undecided on whether or not I'll have the grille itself painted. also wondering how the hightower headlights would look with the color.

the car is going to be parked for most of the winter while it undertakes a pretty long list of mods. First on the list is the suspension and after that the true duals and headers will go on. I have 18" Konig Verdicts sitting in my living room ready to go but I'll wait until I get my winter car to put them on. you never know when snow is going to hit in Michigan.

hope everyone likes:

If you lived here in Austin, TX you'd definately be a Longhorn fan. Hook 'em Horns!
Your car almost looks like the pace car for that one race. Looks good!


I know the SVT is a bad A$$ car, but you don't have to follow me home just to tell me.

I know.

Looks a little more orange then the Pace car. I think it looks damn cool.
