@W4TCH4W - personal choice - I wanted the larger staggered look - with 18x9" in front and 18x10" wheels in the rear. Besides the largest tire size you can mount on the stock wheels and still rotate between all four corners was 255/45s. Now I can put the much larger 275/40s in the rear - vast improvement in traction. But I was actually going to have the new wheels painted to match the stock ones - but when I mounted them they kind of reminded me of the 2001 Bullitt wheels so I left them alone.

NIce look. You've done a couple things that are on my AM Build list. If you want real performance from it, give Jim II at JDM Engineering a call for their custom Edelbrock s/c setup. They sent me one and me and 2 buddies did the install ourselves in under two days. I dropped almost 2 seconds on the 1/4 mile. It's a beast! I also lowered it an 1" and lowered the rear lower control arms for less wheel hop. I'd love to put wider rubber on the back, but I refuse to lose the stock Bullitt wheels.

@W4TCH4W - Well the Bullitt handles much better & is much quicker than it was from the factory. I think the new staggard deep dish wheels actually improve on the "old School" look. As for the Filter - it's from "Green Filter" - just google it and you'll find the link to their webpage. Much better filter than the stock paper filter and is rechargable like the K&N filter.

@W4TCH4W - Also the hood is a Trufiber Heat Extractor hood and I got it from Bangastang when I did my complete makeover. Front bumper and a complete respray of the entire car. It can be ordered painted. $415 unpainted (+$150 shipping). Can't say how much it'd cost to have it painted but you're best bet would be to call for a price or just have a local shop paint it for you when you get it. Warning - a cheap $200 paint job will never look good on this hood. It requires a lot of block sanding.

I'll film something later this week (: Tell ya what I'll post up your video and my video on SVTP, S197 forum, MW and modded mustangs. Well see who gets the readers votes. PS I actually have a ton of Trufiber/Trucarbon parts on my car but I will still stand by cervinis

My car is almost done when it comes out I'll post a video and you'll see how comical my hood looks. As far as prep goes cervinis makes way better hoods than trufiber does. I have a ton of trucarbon parts on my car but I wouldn't think twice about ordering from cervinis agai

@W4TCH4W - BTW I still have the original wheels as well as ALL of the stock parts.

No offense taken. But I can understand why someone might think it’s a vanilla S197 when in fact it’s a special edition BULLITT Mustang. And yes I actually looked at Cervinis hoods but wasn't impressed. Flimsy & pretty rough finish that would’ve requiring a lot of prep work. That’s why I went with the Trufiber SVT Heat Extractor hood much more substantial, without looking comical like some of hoods Cervinis sells that I have to say seems more for all the want-a-be boy racers out there.

Besides I was looking for something a little more traditional with the heat extractors like the original ’68 Mustang GT from the movie BULLITT. Personal choice. Can't help it if you feel robbed watching my video. Tell ya what send me a check for $5 bucks and I'll send them back. ;)

First off you say "No offense" Then say my "video was a waste of time" - hardly frendly. Tell ya what - why don't you come back when your car is done and post a video. Otherwise - you're wasting my time....
