To my99svt considering my competition was a bit more fierce,than only fords i give myself alot of credit considering i entered the same show last year and didnt win a damm thing.

Perry- I was just glad to take home a trophy because of all the comp. i had.How many trophies have you won?

Antonio-I appreciate your feedback you are one of the more mature ceg'ers that know how to critisize someones ride without making it sound offensive. As for all the comments they are well noted, but everyone locally really likes my ride.

Antonio cant wait to see your car!
One more thing this makes me think twice about going to the national meet because i dont want people talking **** about my car after i have worked so hard on it,and iam proud of it.

I guess you didn't read my post?

I also agree with what Antonio said, even though I'm with Tim on my likes dislikes!

I don't plan on competing in any shows but I think if I did I would have to come up with some way to seperate my car from the rest! And where I think you could have taken it down a notch and did some more aggressive things to the body, its a work in progress!

Good Luck!

That is all that really matters. We are not the ones working hard, and putting money into your car, you are. So in the end you do want you want to your car, but a word of advice don't take it so personal. Everybody is not going to like/agree on everything.

Umm, why is that holding you back?? Go look and learn. See what others have done. Enjoy yourself. We are in all it to have fun.

As for everyone else you are entitled to your opinions but, no offense, but they suck.. I have been in plenty of car shows and unless you have what everyone calls (ricer) equipment on you car you have no chance of winning a damn thing. So what ever you guys think is irrelevent because I'll keep getting trophies and you guys will be watching from the sides wondering why you dont win anything with your plain, boring looking cars..
Sorry to be so mean but hey other people have told me alot worse.. So if my car is not for you then do not bother replying to my posts... This kind of thing really mad pisses me off...
Dude, first of all I like your car. I've already told you that the car color was tight and I enjoyed the pics u took of the car in the sunset last week. But hey, you asked for opinions, and the troup gave em to ya. I'm sure your wing looks great in person. I'd love to see that car up close, especially with a body kit...I don't think I've ever seen a midnight blue tour with a body kit.

But seriously man, you have to take the good opinions with the bad. At least someone didn't shove dynamite up a sheep's butt and blow your car up in some sort of a wierd (but hella funny) storyboard about the fake mean green! (shout out to honkeytonk! laugh ) That didn't make me mad, but I guess it could have if I took it the wrong way. When you ask for someone's opinion, you aren't always going to get what you want to hear. For example, you think the blackouts are cool...well here on the east coast they're kinda played out...but if it wins shows, you'll know to filter that out because its workin for you. Seriously man, if you want to take the car to the next level, how about this:

-full SVT body kit with Mirko splitter
-Hightower mod headlights with clear corners
-maybe some white neon (blue would clash)
-some nitrous or maybe a mirrored hood to spice up the engine bay

Oh and about getting stuck on the sidelines with my ugly plain car while you win trophies....wanna race? laugh

Damn No love! frown

I like the graphics. I was considering doing something similar but chickened out. I didn't know what it would look like.

Hey you should get Lowering springs and 18's....haha just kidding. Congrats on your 3rd place finish.

Get rid of the blackouts and it's OK maybe as for the rice horse, that's first place right there, Tim your tour looks great, say you should add a touring wing, blackouts etc.. and you might get a first, just kidding your car looks great!!!

I openly apologize to anyone I offended.. I tend to get a little edgy sometimes but you are all right I should'nt have taken it so personel. As for 99svtguy I am waiting for the helahydro body kit because I think my car would look better with a kit a little different from the rest.. I am also trying to get together money for the hightower headlight and I have already cleared the corners and added headlight strobes.. And also some white neon's are in my near future..
So once again I apologize to everyone. Personally I would take an SVT for my car in a heart beat to feel the real power of an SVT...
Sorry about everything guys frown
No hard feeling ok laugh

i thought it had something on it, but i ment it needed to be lowered more...get coilovers or a spring with a larger drop like antonio said.
maybe when you get a kit it will make it look better..it just seems to still be sitting a bit too high.
I understand what you mean about having to have that stuff to win shows...and i don't mind the wing and the graphics, but i think the headlight covers make it look cheap... it throws it all off...and headlight covers are not rice..they are worse they are like that door edge trim that retards use to trim the trunk, hood, wheel wells, fuel door etc..like i said it just makes it look cheap.
what i think would make it look really nice is to have black wheels with a polished lip.
this way the center of the wheel would be black but the lip would be silver and match the graphic better.
a wheel like this


i think you should get the headlight housings painted black or the body color (hightower) that would look a good.
