    This is probably the best channel I’ve ever seen based around a single build

    I really like the fact you’re not afraid to change up the original plan if you’re unhappy with something. Very admirable! I also feel your pain about the paint shop. Mine is down due to corona and I’ll be waiting for a bit afterwards and I have a lot of parts I would like to get painted for my s197.

    Woah 😮 lol projector headlights are a serious life improvement, I can’t imagine downgrading for reflectors with how much night driving I do in my coupe

    Said it before and I'll say it again, the best content on UA-cam is right here.
    Love the changes you made. It always sucks when a mod you've envisioned doesn't exist the same way you'd hoped.
    Slight changes with OEM parts give such good results on the s197, it's got great bodylines.

      👉 "It always sucks when a mod you've envisioned doesn't exist the same way you'd hoped" FOR REAL, so much work and pure disappointment. Appreciate the kind words 🙏 and agree on the body lines.

    This channel really inspired me to look for my dad's old 05 Mustang. He used to Drag Race it and won a ton of races and some championships with it because it was so consistent. I was able to find it and to my happiness and dismay it's been sitting for 2 years since someone bought it. They drove it home and let it sit. Thankfully they drain the gas and unplug the battery. When I saw the car recently it had a ton of dust and leaves all over it. I bought it and going to pick it up soon to bring it back to life! His old one is white but my dad's new Mustang is an 06 in black paint. I showed him this channel as well. I will have so much fun making this Mustang clean and beautiful again with lots of new mods with my personality witch is -"mean and clean but loud and proud".

    • @Four_Eyes

      You should document the process here on UA-cam. That's a great story.

    Really like the new look. "Sometimes u really cant outdue oem parts"- agreed

  • @TackierPenguin
    @TackierPenguin 4 роки тому +5

    I agree, I love the stock grill. I thought about replacing the grill on my 08 GT to look more like the bullit, but I decided not to in the end.

  • @chrisgresham2875
    @chrisgresham2875 4 роки тому +4

    Hey four eyes I know building a channel up like this is very expensive because you're doing it with a car but coming from a gearhead don't stop man you're on a roll and you have supreme editing skills make it happen!

  • @MrSOHC46

  • @jonlisabuhler4871
    @jonlisabuhler4871 4 роки тому +2

    It turned out awesome. I have an '07 California Special, now I need to add splitters on the front and side. Glad to know the GT500 one will work. Great job again as per usual!

    • @Four_Eyes
      @Four_Eyes  4 роки тому

      It's a bit of a pain to get on there, be sure to have a friend around.

    • @jonlisabuhler4871
      @jonlisabuhler4871 4 роки тому

      Thanks, appreciate the heads up. I just ordered a McLeod Super Sport clutch and aluminium flywheel, hopefully that will give my Stang a little more kick. Guessing you'll be needing a clutch upgrade soon.

  • @christianhansen7878
    @christianhansen7878 4 роки тому +8

    Looks great! I think the step back to OEM Grill was the right choice! And the C/S - GT500 combo is my absolute favorit on the s197! Keep up the great work! And since your goal is keeping the clean s197 look: You maybe keep the OEM hood but add some heat extractors (like 13/14 S197 hood) to keep down the IAT when your s/c your car. That'll be my next step.

    • @Four_Eyes
      @Four_Eyes  4 роки тому +1

      Thank you and good tip.

  • @Browean
    @Browean 4 роки тому +4

    Been waiting man, and thank god you went back to the factory grill!! Looks so much better/more original. Ported heads is unexpected, but I’m very hyped to see your results.

    • @Four_Eyes

      Thanks Bret, me too 👍

  • @walkershippy

    Lmao I literally watch all your old videos whenever I’m waiting for a new one to come out. They’re that good. The mustang looks great.

  • @antoniobeltran4220
    @antoniobeltran4220 4 роки тому +2

    Car is looking amazing! In my opinion the best option regarding the hood is keeping it simple by just adding a SpeedForm or MMD hood scoop. The hood scoop takes care of the plain look of the stock hood.

  • @Bloody.3v

  • @jmmustangs3078

    So glad syder started selling the taillights I picked up a pair of white vector taillights from eBay and I put piece of black vinyl over the reflectors and reverse light which makes it look so much better.

  • @greggcarter5697
    @greggcarter5697 4 роки тому +1

  • @joemartin8651
    @joemartin8651 4 роки тому +6

    I did the same thing with the grills, bounced around and put the stock one back in.

  • @johnbowick7109
    @johnbowick7109 3 роки тому

    Trufiber A52 Hood fully functional out of the box, no extra ram air parts to buy. Had mine for 2 years and no problems with form or paint. Air comes in the ram air vents and feeds the factory engine air inlet location. Two huge heat extractors, though you will need to purchase rain guards for the extractors, about $ 70.00. These are held in with push pins, easy in and out.

  • @silverbulletS197
    @silverbulletS197 4 роки тому

    YES!! Youre front end now looks awesome! Youre right, sometimes factory parts make the car look better cosmetically when combined with others. Keep that look, goes well with it!

  • @degogaming
    @degogaming 4 роки тому +3

    Duuuude I absolutely love the styling choices you made this time around! I used to own those headlights and honestly I liked them, but you took them to a whole new level! Congrats on having yet again one of the cleanest 3v out there!

  • @lombjs
    @lombjs 4 роки тому

    I have these on my 2008 and I like the way they look at night with the tri bar. Not a bad price and fairly simple install. I also installed the pony delete Eleanor style grille with the halo fog lights and the Axial chrome turn signals.

  • @MZ-bl6wg
    @MZ-bl6wg 2 роки тому

    The technology of LEDs is truly amazing, to be able to get EVERY possible color in the rainbow spectrum from a single light emitting diode is amazing. Cool idea too even if you don’t like running show colors on your car , you can pick colors jsut off white that give just enough off color to be uniquely cool or go extreme and all by your phone . So cool.

  • @ggggggggggggggggazoo
    @ggggggggggggggggazoo 4 роки тому +1

    I Really like the way it looks with amber halos at the end.

  • @BrookieCooki84

    I went with the retro style black projector headlights for the same reasoning you had. Really like what you did to those headlights. You for sure have a one off set of headlights now.
    Love the videos and the build. Cant wait to see your numbers after the head work!

    @jmmustangs3078 4 роки тому +1

    Best mustang content vids on UA-cam! The front splitter and side splitters look great, never have liked those headlights because the bulb ring is way to small compared to stock. The factory grill is the way to go imo and those halos are sick!!!, now I want to swap out my raxiom halos.

  • @brandonburchell8
    @brandonburchell8 4 роки тому +1

    Front GT500 lip looks good. The grill and headlights look good. I think you should tint the fog lights with some light smoke tint, not super dark. And paint the pony badge on the grill gloss black

  • @luckduck5031

  • @andrewward4246
