                                                                                         THEN
This is my 2005 Mustang GT in her original state when I bought her in November 2005 before the modifications began. She was imported to the UK in May 2005.

                                                               THAT WAS THEN, THIS IS MODDED
The following shots show the evolution of the car with the addition of 20" wheels, lowered suspension, rear panel and billet medallion, a GT500 rear spoiler, a Legend front splitter, Cervini side ducts and a hood scoop. The latter two items are things I wrestled with in my mind, being non-functional and drag-creating before I decided that aesthetics can justify a mod just as much as function.

   The signals were clear - or were soon to be...

   Chrome wheels and polished supercharger

The clear indicators and side markers were something I've wanted to do to the car for a while - it was well worth it. these are from Stangmods and have stealth bulbs at the front and red LEDs at the back:

                                               Madame, may I have this stance?

This is a selection of the S197's here in the UK in July 2008 at a local hotel just before heading off to the national Mustang show where we had about 200 cars turn up despite rain.

The one in front is mine. Amazing how wheels and mirrors alter the whole shape.

A Day Out in the Welsh Countryside

Why not paint the garage wall while it's raining outside! Initial one was using some spare paint but I got some tester pots and changed the Mustang to something more like the 2010 emblem.
