i noticed that you have put on the trim around the side window channel... how hard are those to put on?? did you need any special tool?

It was easy as long as you first make sure you have it centered or the right lengths at both ends. Becareful with them cause they bend easily and once a part of it is clipped on its almost impossible to get it to come off.

Yeah that would be badass. Hopefully sometime this yer i get it done and i can start showing it next year. My Laser red came out a little darker than the factory color. Heres a comparison. My dad's 98 Cobra is factory Laser Red.

Looking good Dana. I remember when you first posted this on SacStangs. It has come a long way. Any plans of teasing the previous owner with it once your done.

lol, now that's weird... What makes you think the previous owner gives an F?
Last thing I would ever want after selling a car is hearing from the new owner in the future about anything...

I think my camera might be messed up or it might have just been my picture taking.
