I'd remove the door dings. I did it to my 95 midnightred se and it looks awsome. I can't wait to see your all painted up. It'll give me a better idea if I should go with Micah's bumper or try to create my own. Either way your car is looking awsome and that is not just cause I'm biased about the colour.

Hey Paul in that last pic are your skirts painted or not? My roomates monitor kinda sucks so it's hard to tell. I've got my Micah bumper here and a set of the SVT skirts in the garage both waiting for paint. But, I could be temped with the darker colored car to just "test" both pieces out for a few days if the lack of paint was not too noticable. Oh, here is a pic of my lowered SE as per thread topic:  It's on 205/50/17 snow tires in the picture, but it sits lower with the 215/40/17 Parada Spec2's that are on there now.

Man I thought it was gonna only be me and Paul with ground effect on our midnight red contours. Bicycle19 3's a crowd man.  Ohh well at least well have the best looking Contours out there next to Pascals. Paul it looks really good without the door dings.

I'm glad that you started this post. I'm thinking my Contour is starting to lose it's stock suspension and I don't replace items with stock items. (Performance time)

Hey Bicycle019, can I get that chrome strip off your front bumper if you are going to replace your front with Micah's SVT front? My replacement strip sucks and is starting to show some wear and tear after only 5 months. Let me know. I can email you! BTW, nice 'Tour..are you thinking about getting the windows tinted?
Also, MIdnight95SE, who did your grill, man? I would love that on the front rather than the Ford decal.
'95 GL White
I've got mods.

Hey whats up?! Thanks for the comments guys! About the grille, I did it myself. I just used the contour badge off the back of the car, removed the ford symbol, then replaced it with the contour. Then i used gutter gaurd type stuff and formed a grill on top of that. I personally like it since I haven't seen anyone else with it. But I did this a while ago, so I wouldn't mind if someone else did it now. Anyways, thanks again for the comments. Laterrrrr

Once I swap bumpers I don't think it should be a problem..but my chrome strip is not exactly in amazing shape either. I'll contact you once I pull the stock bumper off.
Window tint...maybe something light but not yet.

Thanks man, but you guys have some sharp cars. Silver SVTs are a dime a dozen, the midnight red color is going to look completely awesome once the full body kit is one. I agree it looks awesome without the door ding guards.. that's something we don't see a lot of pre-98's do, for some reason.. Keep it up and post pics once it's all painted..
