Exterior side styling changes

[Back2Gas]

Fair opinion. I just think without those it's way too plain.

Yeah, that's why I did Oxford white with PP + NP. Blacked out badges, headlamps, mirrors, roof and spoiler will give a good contrast.

looks similar to a late ‘70’s GT500 (I.e. Eleanor).

Thank you, I'll take that as a compliment .

Not quite. The scoops on the '65 GT350 fed air to the rear brakes

As I recall, the first versions of the SN95 side scoops did that as well. That was changed with the mid-cycle update.

I had a 2003, but I was never a fan of the Fox Body styling, nor of the 5th gen; the 6th gen was the first Mustang that really appealed to me. The 7th gen is an improvement with a cleaner design; as in all things style related, it's very subjective. I'm not generally a fan of stripes, but they can work for some cars; I had side stripes on my old 2010 Challenger, and they did help appearances.

The S650 looks to have limited room in that pocket area for a scoop. May pose a challenge. In general I think the right scoop looked good on the S550. I do like the RTR scheme on their 24'.

If there is ever a California Special S650, it will have some sort of faux scoop.

I'll say that as the mustang has gotten sleeker, the rear fake side scoops have looked less and less natural to me and more tacked on. The s550 looks goofy as hell to me with aftermarket scoops.

I had a 2004 New Edge SN95 Mustang with fake side scoops and a hood scoop glued on, and those were my biggest issues with the exterior. I think the styling of the subsequent versions look even less appropriate for side scoops.

I have had multiple new edge including my current Mach 1, and a 2012 GT, all with side and hood scoops (shaker scoop for Mach 1). I've loved them on all those. I haven't owned anything more recent so my opinion is probably heavily formed by my ownership so far.

I do agree my shaker is way better than the non functional hood scoops.

That's why I choose the Nite Pony Package for a good contrast of all things.

Race Red car, with black roof, black wheels, black spoiler and black emblems. Makes the car stand out.

And mayne some red brake calipers.

Nite Pony sounds like a bedtime toy for a three year old. Horrible name.
