I think it would look killer if there was some way to integrate 03-04 Cobra fog lights in it.

One thing I hadn't seen mentioned that was the first thing I thought of, the step back also means that you can either fit a longer splitter, or the splitter won't hang out as far from the nose. I've seen a fair number of splitters rammed into parking stops and sidewalks.

One thing of note on both the designs above, make sure that you carry the recessed area of the bumpers around the sides and transition it as far out as your eye and stomach will allow, you really don't want that air coming around the nose to ram into your tires, it'll cool the tires, increase the air inside the wheel well which creates lift and create a LOT of turbulence down the side of the car.

Thanks Dan, if its not hard, can you black out the the recess and the splitter, just to see how it looks. I think your right about the vents. Thanks again, Ron

[Dan S.]

Black is pretty hard to freehand... particularly in daylight... but here's a half-assed attempt. I think I might like it better in Grabber.. but it's hard to tell with such a crappy black drawing.

[Ron S]

Love the shaddowing Dan. I think that is about what I had in my mind. Down in the recess I will add some stainless mesh and a small aluminum frame around it,for air intake, but I think that is about it. Should really help in the aero department (never thought I'd own something that it would make that much difference, but at 150mph
the power steering gets real easy, and the front of the car kinda wonders). Thanks again Dan. Ron

The more I look at it the more I like the current design, it's a meaner look! Have you though about just working on the open look to make it better?

In my opinion these last few just look like someone stuck a fat splitter on a mustang. It doesn't flow with the car.

I saw John's post and thought I'd try a little photoshop on it,,,, hope it works for you bud.

LOL, I had to do this for you, Ron...

[Ron S]

Yeah Adam, you take those gaps in traffic where you can get them. They required us to get a point-by before we could pass. Mike Holeman and I were so jammed up behind so many cars, when the instructor told me to pass the tow truck, I looked at it as a chance to go fast, and did.

[tazzz25906112]

maybe a bigger lower spoiler??? I don't know as I think the first one looked better but this incorporates a little more of the current areo effects and signals....

[454bug]

Check out this car that Albert posted... The Europeans like your car so much they set one up JUST LIKE YOURS!!! except it's right hand drive...

I've always loved the GT350 nose. I think if the nose would have fit better, I wouldn't be changing it now. But the design I'm working on now will incororate the struts and lots of little accents. The aero will be alot better and I'm liking the look so far, I'll post a few pics as soon as I finish grinding the welds.

[Ron S]

My mind keeps changing like this, I'm going to have to grow a vigina. Got the top of the bumper built, but I think I'm going to change the ends and put the splitter in the across the bottom, something like this.

LMAO Ray,,,, that's funny you're the only one that noticed horizontal the flip of the pic to do the edit... I figured someone would chime in right away when I posted it LOL
