yeah, i was thinking black wheels with polished lip, but the factory wheels (chrome) gives it a nice contrast, as does the chrome ss badging. so i'm kind ofrethinking what direction i want to go with it. I may have the headlights tinted moderately too.

Funny you mention the headlights. I was going to mention that the headlight covers on that car that KidSpace posted at the top of page 2 looked good. But I've had too many sets of GTS headlight covers stolen to buy them anymore.

I would just get the headlights tinted a little. Using VHT NiteShades for example.

just a little update, i got my hand controls in a little over a week ago and absolutely love driving it. i installed my black led taillights a few days ago and just received my carbon fiber badges from grafxwerks. i'm just waiting for a nice day to install them. i got front and rear bowties, door and trunk ss badges, bowties for wheel center caps, and blackout for third brake light. i also removed monte carlo emblem on trunk and gm badges on front quarters.i'll also be tinting rear windows 5%, front 35%, and having the headlights smoked. i promise i'll get pics up as soon as it's finished.

oh, by the way, it's fast. torque steers like a mf'er but quick none the less. anyone run a newer mustang gt in one of these? i'm guessing i'd hold my own against one.

Mods sound really nice!
Glad you're liking your new Monte. I haven't raced a Mustang in mine. But I only have the 3.8 engine. Even with the supercharger, I'd get smoked bythe 'stang.
If I had the V8, then it would be on!
