This is my girl. She was born on February 1st, 2002, and I got her March 2nd, 2002. She's an XR Special Edition Cougar MTX.

Exterior: These are all pictures taken at my school back in January of 2003. The areas pretty scenic so it makes for some good pictures. She has custom painted black headlights, tail light covers, red street glow underbody neons and headlight strobes, and 50/35/20 tint. Big exterior mods I'm waiting for are my Z3 fendors and WW grill insert, both of which I just need to put on. Also, I have a set of Pacer Vertigo's 18x7.5 that are just waiting for tires and are sitting at my house. I think I'm going to wrap those rims in a set of Yokohama Parada Spec-2's. Other then that, I'm probably going to get the 2002 WW kit and redo the tints 10% all the way around and I'll be satisfied.

Performance: This has been a focus of mine, especially suspension. Right now she's got the Weapon R Intake, SVT Upper Intake Manifold, Optimized 60mm SVT Throttle Body, a CATCO high-flow cat, and custom dual 3" exhaust leading out to two magnaflow mufflers. I have a 73mm MAF, Greddy E-manage, a red hose kit, SVT Heads with Cams, and SVT 19lbs injectors all just sitting in my room waiting to be put on. My next mods are MSDS headers w/ y-pipe, and I'm thinking a Vortec centrifugal supercharger. I've thought about going with a 3.0L as well but I think that might be more headache then it's worth, still working that out. Suspension wise she has Koni adjustable struts, Roush lowering springs, Aussie 24mm hollow rear sway bar, OMP front strut tower brace, and a Fast Track Performance rear strut tower brace.

Audio: This where I plan to make my money. Right now I have a Pioneer Premier 7400 deck, Cerwin Vega 5x7's, and a monster! JL Audio 12W7 running off a JL 500x1 mono amp. I have another 12W7, 500x1 mono, and 300x4 amp sitting at home which will be getting installed with a 300x2 amp, a JL XR653-CS component set in the doors and kick panels, JL XR570-CXi's in the rear panels, a set of XR100-CT tweeters in the doors, and a pair of JL 8W3's under the dash. The 300x4 will power the 5x7's and XR component set and the 300x2 will run the two 8's under the dash. All this is getting done by Joe at Vortex in Jersey. He did Lilfiesty's car if anyone knows who that is. Should SPL in the mid 150's. We'll see.

Can you find the 12W7?

Here are some pics of me installing my wings west grill insert and aerogear Z3 fendors myself. The first two are hard to make out, but that's a before and after shot and the last one is a pic of the fendors getting buffed out at a bodyshop near my school.
