Hi, I'm Troy and welcome to my page. I was born in 1988 and started working on cars in 2004. My dad has taught me almost everything I know about building cars & designing parts. This is my 2007 Mustang GT that, my dad and I built (see pages 2 & 3). We named it Venom. We also built a Mustang for my Mom & my Dad. Dad & I built and painted all 3 of them. (Dad painted and I sanded)
Custom made hood scoop
Custom made window scoops
Custom made side scoops which are functional
Custom made rear bumper, we cut off the joining area of Cervinis valance, heated and reshaped it to mold it in & used a rubber repair kit to smooth it out. 
Custom made trunk lid and quarter spoilers.
All the parts above were hand made by my dad and myself.
20X8.5 front 20X10 Chrome rims :)
I also got a Cervinis front bumper and made a lower custom Grille for the bumper.................................................................................................

When you finished viewing the photo's & Page 3, you'll come back up to the top and rate my ride. Thank you, Troy

Cut the long antenna and gas welded the tip back onto the base. Ground it smooth and round. Painted it black again. Voila, works perfect.

Details like making a hand made Custom lower fabricated honeycomb Grille to match the upper factory grille.

The DVD Video Player also has GPS navigation built into it. The wire by the console lid is for the ipod that goes inside the console and hooks up directly to the DVD player.

TroyLs 2007 Ford Mustang   TroyLs 2007 Ford Mustang

We are hands free here, so I added the blue tooth that hooks straight to the DVD Stereo system. That's the iPod that hooks straight into it too.

  Added Sub box in Nov 2009, fits like a glove. Bolted it in too :)

Hand made fiberglass fabricated side Windows louvers, see page #2

We removed the factory 1/4 glass that sat on the outside of the 1/4 panels and had new glass cut to fit the inside of the 1/4. This way if the glass ever gets broken, it can be easily replaced, without removing the molded in window louvers. Minor details like making the louvers tilted so no water stays inside or sits on the glass.

Molded in Cevinis lower bumper skirting

The Cevinis side exhaust comes with a rear lower valance to cover the GT's rear exhaust. We didn't like the way it looked with a big ugly line going under the side marker light. Cevinis supplied double sided tape to stick in on. So we customized it fit, by cutting it, heating and re-shaping it to fit. We used rubber weld & repair kits to give it this clean line fit.

Magnaflow Side Exhaust getting installed at home. TroyLs 2007 Ford Mustang    TroyLs 2007 Ford Mustang

We first installed a H-pipe but didn't like the sound with the side exhaust, so we removed it and installed a X-pipe. The X-pipe gave a way better sound with Magnaflow mufflers and the side exhaust.

Hand made fiberglass fabricated side scoops, which we made functional with holes going all the way through. Little details like the Grille we made for inside side scoops.       

We designed & made our own molds of both the side scoops and window louvers. We also have ducting inside the side scoop. It tunnels the air out into the inside wheel opening.

Customized Venom headrests

The Flash picks the headrest up a white, but it's silver with a grey outline, same color as the car.

 Hand made Fiberglass fabricated left & right Quarter panel Spoilers all molded in.

Hand made Fiberglass fabricated trunk lid molded in spoiler with perfect fitting gaps

We designed and made molds for the trunk lid and quarter panel extensions.

TroyL's 2007 Ford Mustang    TroyL's 2007 Ford Mustang

Fiberglass  fabricated hood with inner air channels

We also designed this hood and made a mold of it. There is channeling going through the inside of the hood for air flow.

 TroyL's 2007 Ford Mustang    TroyL's 2007 Ford Mustang

Little details like drain holes on the rear of the hood scoop louvers and window washers nozzels were fitted to the hood. You can see by the shine where the stripes are all cleared and there is no ridges in the paint to the stripes.

Custom Venon made 3rd brake light

We had custom Venom decals made, including the side stripes.

 Under the hood we added hood struts, Venom strut bar and had all the rad covers and extentions painted. Then added the airbrushing.

Looks a lot cleaner with the strut brace painted the same color, before I installed my airbrushed fuse box cover.

I don't believe I'll ever sell this ride. My plans are to keep the Exterior mostly as is, but I do have a few future mods I'm thinking of adding.
