I decidided to go check the car out that was on craigslist listed for 2200. Don't really like the color teal at all but hey i got the car for 1800. bone stock except for msd plug wires and coil. even still has the tri bars, stock mufflers, and air silencer. 129k miles. i think its a good deal. My friend is a painter so maybe getting painted soon.

That's not a bad deal at all. Throw some black wheels on and drop it, you should be good to go.

That's clean... I would just keep the color the way it is. With the right touches, Im sure that color can look great... But PLEASE keep the 94/95 tail lights, they scream "5.0"....
Good deal too. [ September 02, 2009, 01:41 PM: Message edited by: EPIK ]

SInce I'm a nice guy and am an advocate for SN95's, i'll give you my thoughts on what to do...
1. Drop it with H&R springs (about a 1.5" drop) 2. All black 18" 03 cobras or all black Saleens 3. Paint the tail light bezels black (do not change to the 96-98 style!) 4. Paint the lower rear valance of the rear bumper black 5. Smoked headlights/corner lights/foglights 6. 50% tint all around 7. Remove the front grill running pony or paint it flat black 8. Add a CDC or Mach 1 chin spoiler (keep it black!)
I guarantee that these mods will make your car bad ass and people will look at this color differently Makes me want to get a teal sn95 now

You have good taste my friend... Makes me miss my old SN95's... The lower black bezel always looks better, my yellow 95 came that way...
1st mod I would do is remove the "Livermore Honda" front plate frame... [ September 02, 2009, 01:45 PM: Message edited by: EPIK ]

black is wack! the interior is grey so i would go with grey or chrome wheels, like fr500's or have those stock wheels chromed out. shit would look sweet slammed with either of those rims.

Silver FR500's would look sick IMO...
Hey, did my old 95 ever sell at that dealership? I wish I could get it back for a DD...

94-95 tail lights are gay. And the lenses forever look dirty. Switch to the 96-98 style

Your sick... I agree 96-98 lights look better, but the 94/95 have to keep the 5.0 heritage alive, & what makes you know it is a 5.0 when you see it other than the tails? Plus they are unique IMO... I felt the same way you did until i owned one, & then they grew on me... [ September 02, 2009, 01:53 PM: Message edited by: EPIK ]

I think the 94-95 tail lights look more aggressive that the 96-98 style. THey do look dirty when the bezels are the same color as the car, but when blacked out, they look WAAAY better. How you like my ass

It looks better than factory. BUT I still like my style better. If they could make a clear lense I would like it

I was thinking the same thing. I always consider my interior when doing accents. I wouldnt even touch chrome tho. Nice grey wheels. But....if you go dark tints, then maybe black wheels would be the call.

keep it simple and cheap on the appearance dept unless you plan on keeping it for awhile. if i had that same car id lower it, add some anthracite wheels(black is too much contrast for that color IMO) and finish it off with a s281 wing. if u want to take it one step further, id throw on a cobra front bumper, ditch the horse and keep the rest of the badges...i would say go badgeless if u went with a cobra front bumper but the GT badges have holes behind them.
whatever u do, dont paint the car a different color unless you want to spend major bucks to do it right. color changes where the car is not totally taken apart usually dont turn out right .

Congrats on the car! Looks good and the tribars are awesome. I like em a lot. Paint em black and get a chrome center cap now your rolling on cobra r's
I like teal a lot. I seen that on craigslist but it has gray interior and if I pick up a stang it has to have black interior this time!!!
Black outlined tail lights are a must. The 94-95 horizontal lights are my preference but if you like the 96-98 go for it. Either way it wont look bad.
Btw how does it run?
