          yea Autozone and Pepboys were my main suppliers for all of those lights and stuff. But now it will remain the way it is, no more cheap parts store crap for me. Next up is bodyshop and paint. CAN'T WAIT. Nice sexy dark brown and I will be having some of the car painted black.

            2005 Mustang V6 Wheels Acquisition

            just picked up some sweeeeeeeeeet wheels with tires today.









            The tires are 215/65 Dunlop WinterSport tires. they guy says they really grab the road. he only used them for one season on his 2005 Mustang so they are really brand new.

            Sry Tom you are not the only two door owner with these rims now. lol

            Now i just have to cough up $130 or so for a set of 1.5" spacers.


            Now I just need a nice set of acorn lug nuts and another set of locking lugnuts and I will be set.

              Fancy Mustang V6 Spinners

              For my new rims I decided to purchase some ford center cap spinners (they do not spin as that would be just plain tacky). Picked them up off of ebay for a steal. lol They are going to look great. :heyhey:




              Still :waiting: for my 1.5" spacers to arrive.

                            Just got back from Pepboys where I left half of my life savings for some security for my new rims.

                              Well, the spacers came Tuesday, and I received the center caps today. I began installing the spacers and was surprised to find out that on my drums there is a taper that stops the spacer from sitting flush with the drum. So, my dad will bring two spacers too his work tomorrow and shave some metal away from the spacers, hopefully letting the spacers sit flush with the drums. And there is NOOOO way that i will leave these new center caps on the wheels at all times because they are waaaaaaaayyyy to easy to steal and they shine a lot really catching others attention. But I hope to have them on for at least some cruises and photo shoots.

                                Wheels Installed...With Some Night Pics





































                                I didn't install the spinners because they will be too easy to steal. The install went smooth after my dad shaved the spacers a bit. I think the new wheels really make the car look that much better.
