The hightowers were definitely not the easiest thing I have done, and sealing them has been a pita.
The car is running roush springs, and the drop in the rear is helped along by subs, a battery and 3 gallons of water.
Although that is a sexy car.... this is more what I was looking after..

Mannn that looks real nice.. I just think you need to put your Ford logo back on the front. It just looks too open, like something's missing.

Good call. Maybe a black Ford badge.

Send it to Hector. He's the man for that.

Holy Cripes! is that the same car I saw at the Pizza Uno meet?? Wow, I agree with everything Ryan said, that is just sexy. It's definitely in the running for my favorite contour around here, if not already taking that spot. I think you should consider taking off your dings, that car would look incredibly smooth without them.

Everyone one says take off the dings...he has the early E0 ding strips. Those are the best ones, they flow better and still function. If I had had those on my car I would have kept them, I have been getting dented to hell and back.

In a way I agree with you Pete, those dings look 10x better than the later ones, but our cars still look better without them. I've had mine off for 3 years now and don't have so much as a scrape from a parking lot incident, and I don't watch where I park at all, 6 inches from a rusty minivan doesn't bother me at all, lol.
