I love those wheels. Almost bought a set until I came across the deal on my TF wheels. Danny's car was on my desktop for months!

Decided to tape up the Mirrors and the entire front Bumper.

Might add a a couple strips across the front of the hood and above the windshield in the morning.

I'm taking my bucket with detail kit in the truck so I can wash her and re-tape her for the drive back to Dallas.

OCD much? Nah I just love my car

And My wife thinks I'm bad lol

Have fun looking like a tard driving those 600 miles.

I'd at least put "follow me to the Texas Mile" or something on your car so some dignity can be spared. lol

I love my car too. And the 10k miles I've put on her since I bought it. Only wounds so far is 2 rock chips and a small scratch on the lower bumper when one of my signs fell off the wall.

Yay! Good thinking. Thats what i would do too.


There is nothing wrong with being protective of his pride and joy. If you had $30k cash, would you throw it on the ground, stomp on it, throw it in water or whatever else mistreating it? No, so why do it with your car? Stuff happens in life, but some things can be avoided with proper planning. :)

Lol, my old age is showing in this post.

Steve. I totally understand your point but driving a car is not mistreating it. I love Mustangs. At the end of the day it's a Mustang. Heck, even if I had a Ferrari I doubt I would tape it up for a long trip.

It's a car. Not a piece of art. It would be like buying a camera and going, I really don't want to scratch the lens so I'm going to tape it up while I'm taking pictures. I clean my car about once a week. I keep my camera lens caps on at all times. I'm even super crazy when I swap lenses. I'll cap the camera even for about the 10 seconds it takes for me to swap lenses. No problem with taking care of your pride and joy but show that thing off if you're proud of it. Use it for what it's intended for.

Take care of it. Drive it hard, the way it's built and meant to be enjoyed.

I agree with you, but you're kind of missing my point too. Part of the enjoyment of the experience for me is keeping it nice. I drive my car quite often, granted I don't go very far typically, but thats because I don't leave my area of town very often because everything I need is here. No, I don't drive my car hard right now, but thats because it's slow and that will change here shortly. lol

Part of the enjoyment for me isn't just driving it, but taking care of it. I wipe my car down after everytime I drive it. I frequently will do so when I get to a parking lot or a gas station. I get that this is over the top for most people, especially for those of you who have to drive their cars everyday regardless of weather.

No I get it. It's great to be proud of it.

Different strokes for different folks.

i just like my shit clean and i worked to hard and spent too much damn money to trash mine up lol

After the 98 Cobra, let's just say I've got a much greater appreciation for my new car. lmao. (Though, I really miss that screaming blower lol)

Absolutely. I'm sure after the accident with the last one you appreciate this one much more too.

gf thinks i dont like this one as much haha

I dig it alot. LOVE the stance. :worthy:

I don't either. The other one was better looking.

3500 miles on the new engine.... that's since Sept 25

The car has 27500 on it now (typo in the other post).
