And i know what you mean, seeing as i have a 100k warranty i'm not touching the engine mods besides maybe looks, so might as well turn heads while cruising Your 5.0 looks fantastic as does everyone elses posting in this thread, makes me constantly wanna push forward and make mine just as unique as y'alls! A very expensive hobby to have that unless a car enthusiast, most don't understand that we're always having to change something up. Oh well :)

Hang in there and be patient. It takes time and a lot of money to build your car up the way you want. Don't be down on your V6 either, they make great power for a V6! When I was your age the foxbody 4cyl cars running around only had something like 110hp. The 93 Cobras didn't even have 305hp! lol.

Oh i love my car! It's the thing i'm most passionate about besides family. I was just stating that since it's a v6 instead of me dropping a ton of money to make it a tad quicker, i would invest in appearance!

Black wheels done well, with the right accents can look really good. It just drives me crazy about some cars with all black wheels photograph. The wheel is solid black, the tire is black and the fenderwell all seem to blend together and it looks like a big void.

Don't be afraid to think out of the box either. Look at Merlin's car as an example. A few years ago you would only see bronze on imports. But with his wheel selection and accents the bronze looks amazing on his car!

What it comes down to you have to do what YOU like and can afford. You're the one who has to dish out the money, has to look at it everyday and clean it.


Good luck in your search!

Werd. These new V6s make more power than the 4.6 V8:hidesbehindsofa:

Forgestar f14s deep concave rears before my sport lines. The deep concave is a little more than the rtr concave.

again for forgestars I got the cf10, get complimented all the time on them.

Everyone might have them but they aren't "mainstream" yet.

Actually there aren't really a lot of people that have them, even on the forums.

the sve drifts are the best looking "cheap" wheel on the market to me. they look like they cost more than what they actually do

Dominic Toretto 10-31-2013 03:15 PM

These are my favorite wheels. Unfortunately I am not baller status like most of you mofos.

Popular/common or not I'll be putting SVE Drifts on my car (PW '11).

I'd LOVE some bronze or gold, I had some on my black srt4- but my wife would disown me and refuse sex for a LONG time if I put them on. lol
