i have been playing around with my car to give it a personal touch. I should be lowered to xr6 ride height in a couple weeks. the stripes are still to be finished with a thin gold pin stripe on the outer edge and possibley some text in about the same location where the GT/ GT-P logo is on BA/BF

will look better lowered and with the stripes finished. they look a bit odd atm.
suggestions: ditch the ford badge on the quarter panel clear indicators and repeaters perhaps debadge the 4.0i too, the colour looks a bit out of place

Not really a fan, not that that really matters as it's your car and what you think is the only important thing. But with the right set of wheels, dropping it a fair bit, debadging the sides, losing the bonnet vents (sorry it's a personal hate thing) and getting rid of that window sock (unless you have a kid in the back) I could easily be a fan.

are your bonnet vents facing the wrong way?
I was under the impression that they were there to let the hot air out, not let the air in

I'm not one to criticise. But to suit my style I would drop the suspension, get rid of the stripes, debadge it, get some wheels for it(even interceptor rims), remove the sun shade, and get a clean bonnet(no vents).
But mostly just get some wheels and remove the stripes |

Yeah...Dont like it at all. Looks tacky. If you cant get new wheels do whatMADNC 8 said and polish them up. They look pretty good when theyre all shiny.
