imo, just ignore the kids wanting to race, they'll clue in when the police pull them over and you point and laugh!

When I bought the car (and you'd hate me if you knew how much I DIDN'T pay for it) the dealer threw in the bra and that damn black tonneau cover.... so I just use it.. it was free... I'm cheap, what can I say and I confess I sorta like the look.

It's now my Steeda-stang... all the other parts I've added are all from Steeda.

Yes to number 1. The nice thing about Steeda stangs is you rarely see any prowling the streets and they do have quality parts

yea it's almost too bad that you never see them. i've seen tons of roush stangs, gt500's and saleen's. hell i've even seen a y2k cobra R in person.. but never a steeda stang 11.2s @ 127mph quarter mile, and a 1.0g lateral grip... i'd kill for those kinda numbers

I've often thought about turning my GT into a Steeda Q400 clone.One of my fav's from Steeda.And like you stated,you hardly see a Steeda mustang if at all.

DO IT!! lol almost forgot you already have the Q400 hood. you should deff get the splitter. i'm personally iffy on the wing. but the splitter for sure! plus it's removeable for those days you just feel like going without haha if you dont do it, i will

I just order more stuff from Steeda... exhaust, some other performance stuff.. Man it doesn't take long to go through a pile of money with them. BUT, my toy will get better and better. None of it will be on the outside however... hmmmm. won't even see my efforts.

Everytime i walk in the garage,and see my GT the way it is,i change my mind.I have always been that guy that always believes in the good old saying,less is more.In the case of the '99 to '04,it is so true,even though i like Roush's,Saleens,Steeda's,Bullitt's,oh wait,that one has less LOL....ects....
One day i might still do it.Especially since there is tons of silver '99+ stangs with either Bullitt rims,or FR500 rims in any shade with spoiler delete,and Mach 1 chin spoiler,and grille delete.
Plus i don't mind the Steeda spoiler,it flows with the splitter,and cowl hood.

Awesome stuff.You should start a build thread,and post away pics of your parts,and build.
