Still not crazy about the hood, but it's your money so you should be allowed to do whatever you want. Except the fenders and an M badge. That's just illegal. I like the rims though. I think some tint would be good too.

I was more looking for a 5 spoke, I like the look of an exposed wheel. Also the 1000's have a grey color instead of polished. The darker color goes great with red as you can see in the picture.

I don't mean to insult this forum or its members, but as I said in another thread, this is not the forum to talk about mods. This BMW forum's members consist of many purists and hate the ideas of modding. I think you should check out a Cougar forum that is more open to the tuning market and has a better knowledge of what is available and good for your new car. But don't even think about leaving us.

Here is the fender, it gives it that BMW Z3 look.
Definately do NOT do that. No ricing cars...that's horrible.

As for the CF hood...do it if the scoop will serve a purpose (i.e.- Getting cool air into a cool air intake) and definately paint it. Again, rice is not cool.

If I do the hood, I would paint it. I was just thinking about doing fog lights, probably will. Already planning on doing tint.

I finished stripping the wax and when I did, tons of swirl marks are undernieth. I guess I will get the car buffed before I Zaino it. After taking a closer look at parts of the car, there is a small patch of scratches on the rear fender, the panel would have to be repainted to get rid of it. Also on the Front bumper and right side mirror it looks like it had cracked and they repaired it with super glue then used touch up paint. I will probably get that all sanded, repaired, and repainted.

Luckaly the interior is mint so nothing is needed at all. Car runs great, no creeks or strange noises, wich is very unusual for fords.

Here is my to do list:
rear spoiler
fog lights
Tint
repar exterior panels
get car buffed
K&N air filter
When I have the money Wheels
and im still thinking about the hood.
