I think it would look even cleaner with the Mach 1 grill delete.
Probably but in my opinion everyone does it and I like how the honey comb matches the hood scoop
Hai kau kau
@@prestonsarlo one thing you can do to give it a blacked out look without the Mach 1 grill delete is check out the 2001 Bullit. I originally thought it had a grill delete on it but up close you see alls ford did was remove the chrome trim ring around the pony, thus having a blacked out grill that keeps the honeycomb.
Nice car, I have a 2004 GT which I noticed you had the 40th badges on it, I bought it new from the dealer. It's got only 62,000 on it.
@@paulnicholson5997 Correct I had a Bullitt with the grill delete. It was subtle but the subtle hints made the car look so much better. Really all of them should have had the "floating pony".
Yes!!!!!
Great video I found it because I am starting to customize my 99 GT and this had lots of great info! I appreciate that you kept it real and affordable!
Thanks for watching glad it helped!
I’m buying 2002 GT today man your videos really helped me make the decision to buy and build one. Love the content man🤙🏽
Awesome man u won’t be disappointed! Thanks for the support!
How has your project come along, 1 year later. Bet it look great
Love your video man! I bought a 2001 mustang and this video really helped.
Appreciate that! Good luck on ur build
The cold start made me subscribe😂😂
Lol I love it!
Bro I just bought and 02 mustang this actually helps me a lot Thankyou
Awesome glad it helped!
after 5 years of ownership and 2 years spent sitting in the sun, I’ve finally gotten to dropping a crate motor in my mustang and built the motor up. Now I’m looking at a lot of body work but wanted something decent to make the car pop until I can afford a new paint job. Props on your car! Love the style you picked!
Thank you for the kind words! Happy to hear u got after that project it’ll be worth it when it’s done!
You get the paint job? Mine needs one too, how much is it? 🤔
Dope
what type of motor did you drop
I love it. I'm going to try this myself!
Go for it!
Great looking new edge. I just bought a black 2000 GT. I’m thinking I’ll either go with a Black and chrome or Black and Gold color scheme. Great content 👍🏽 thanks for making this video
Awesome thanks for watching! Good luck on ur build!
Hey Preston...Great video brother! I just picked up '04 GT..Also have a '98 GT...I've Always liked the new edge look...Keep up the great work...and btw, where's the gabagool?? lol
Hahahah! Awesome good luck on ur build these are great cars! Thanks for watchin!
Nice! I just bought a 1999 Mustang GT. I'm about to do a bunch of mods to it myself. I like your car it looks sweet.
Appreciate the kind words! They are great car’s definitely worth it
Just bought a black 04 gt with a kennebell supercharger. So performance is there but now I wanna mod aesthetics. I like the splitter idea and the rear window scoops
That’s sweet man! Both are good choices
New edge never look old. Just something about that body style that grab people attention when out driving my edge
One of my favorites for sure!
Love your 04!!
Thank you!!
I added bbk long tubes with my borla stingers and offroad xpipe.. the cold starts are godly
Oh yes it’s worth every penny
BBK long tubes
Borla Atak cat back
True dual
Nasty af
Awesom car and video man.
Appreciate it man!
Great job
Thank you!
Nice ride good video presentation
Thank you!
I'm kinda surprised that no one makes an aftermarket backlit door control panel. That would seem like a good idea so that you can easily see the controls at night. I guess I'll to make my own.
They also carry them at American Muscle and CJ Pony Parts
I like your mods, nice
Appreciate it!
Cool Mustang Preston. 👍
Appreciate it man!
My first car was 00 v6 manual. I miss that car. Such a underated era as both the v8 and v6 are capable of great power. V8 more so but the v6 is no slouch easy 500hp naturally aspirated. Beautiful car you have dude. Mine was silver and had the optional spoiler as well. Miss her everyday.
Thanks for the kind words! Buy a new one!
Never heard of a 500 hp na v6
I just got a 00 manual v6
You’re smoking crack bro. 😂 In what world are you getting an 500hp na v6? That’s not even an easy feat for a 2v v8 of that era to achieve.
Oh wow you and I have the same paint/vinyl stripes thats awesome
That’s sweet man!
Love this car
Appreciate it brotha!
I installed the side window louvres on my 04 and got the honey comb inserts from MTD. Love the look of them, great looking Mustang.
Love it. My personal preference for my Mach 1 or any new edge is definitely pricier. Went with 18x10.5 in the back and 18x9 in the front. Went with 285s on the rear so I wouldn’t have to roll the fenders. But you’re right. It’s a must have cuz that stock stance is trash
Always wanted to go up to 18s and get some new wheels!
Added the side louvres on my 04 and got the honeycomb inserts from MTD. Great looking mustang .
Thank you man! And what website was it?
@@prestonsarlo “Modern Muscle Design”, but American Muscle sells them also.
Omg, I could listen to that rumble of the eight all day long....
I 100% agree
#1 for me would have to be my Bama Tune! 🤗
Lol facts! 😂
Hy bro thanks for giving me more ideas to waste my money lol !
Hahaha that’s what I’m hear for!
I just finish doing a few things to my 04.... probably I should make a video... I installed headers, xpipe, coilovers, lower control arms, brand new brake calipers the ones that come with the cobra, tubular k member front control arms tubular as well.. k and n filter underdrive pulleys. I also did the diferntial I put 4.10 gears on it. Plus I bought a Diablo tune.. can't wait to drive it.....
That’s sweet man it’s going to rip!
This has been my dream car since i was 8 and im finally saving up to build my own at 17😩
Awesome! Have fun with it
A short throw shifter is a great honorable mention
Yes definitely
Love what you did with that care! Looking to get a1996 model as my first car here in the Netherlands. Most people here tell me not to do it because it’s old and allot of trouble but I love to tinker. Don’t know much about cars tho but I will learn more along the way. Any advice?
Thanks for watching! These are great cars I would just try and find the cleanest one possible and modify it little by little and learn as you go. Tons of videos on here on how to do everything
1996 was a terrible looking model year, but if you like it, don't let them discourage you. With age there's more likely things that will fail, since corrosion and parts breakdown are an issue. If it was used in the summers only, kept in a garage, and well maintained, I doubt you'll have that much trouble. I just bought a y2k V6 that was sitting for 4 years for $400, and it only took $230 to get it driving. It's my tinker car now, and there's heaps to fix that isn't critical to operation, but a perfect way for me to learn car repairs.
I found svt rims off of a 96 mustang for my new edge, 17s 275 in rear with 225 in the front, really changed the car. Still using the tires on them even though they are dry rotted because I'm broke. I'm using the money I have now for paint since I need to repaint it. I'm in college for autobody and as of now, about to start repainting the car.
That’s awesome! Just do it step by step and it’ll be done before u know it
You are right, I dont like the rear louvers, side scoops nor the rear diffuser. Just not my style. I feel you missed out talking about the tint, pin stripes and red mustang lettering. The 10 cheap mods Ive done to my car if you care to know
1. Smoked sequential tail lights
2. Exhaust, mine is headers back so little more pricey
3. Steeda short throw shifter
4. Lowering Springs
5. Wheels/tires I went 17x9 275 all around and 1/4" rear spacer to get rid of that tuck
6. Cobra R front bumper, but really wish it was a 99/01 Cobra with the Mach 1 chin spoiler
7. I did silver mustang lettering for my Black Bullitt
8. 2.5 cowl but kept original hood scoop, I think a shaker set up would be awesome but I am also Procharged so that wouldnt be functional in my case
9. Had a cold air intake but that went away with the procharger
10. Gears and a tune i was 4.10 NA now 3.73
But thats my list. Best thing about these cars is the ability to customize them to ones own personality
How is the ride in the 4.10 vs. 3.73 and why did you decide to switch
@@alecgoss3202 when I was NA the 4.10's were great, really helped that 265hp get up to speed. I had them for about 10 yrs and had no issue in town or on NY-NC-NY highway trips getting 24mpg highway. I went to 3.73 (3.55 probably could have been better) only after adding a procharger. With the extra 125 whp (dynod 265 before 390 after) I found I wasnt really needing 1st gear anymore so made the change.
Nice
Thanks!
Nice crown Vic
Appreciate it brotha!
wasup bro great video iam planning on buying a GT but need help on seeing if the one iam looking at is a real GT as I don’t want to end up butying a none GT one
If it’s got a V8 it’s most likely a GT
I like your chin spoiler and side skirts.
Back in the late 70s we took old conveyor belts and fashioned a downward-sloping front "chin spoiler" and outward-angled side skirts from the belt material. We designed and fitted the chin spoiler using cardboard until we got the desired effect and then traced it on the rubber and cut it out.
The brackets to attach the belt material to our cars were homemade, super sturdy, and simple in design. The front was custom-made to follow the curved contour of the lower valance and the side was 1/8th inch angle iron The length of the front and rear tire openings, hammered to the right angle for the skirt to project downward & outward at our desired angle, (about 45-degree), then bolted to the existing body flange and the belt was then screwed to that. Some guys even added more conveyor belt material behind the rear tire but I never really noticed any performance improvement with doing that so I usually stopped at the front of the rear tire with my skirting.
The real difference in our design was that the skirts were absolutely functional in that at around 100mph, (on my 68 Mercury Cougar XR-7 GT anyway), you felt, (and heard the skirt start to scrap on occasion), the car literally drops down and hugs the road just like in Nascar.
In some cases, at first, the spoiler & skirts would rub, (depending on how poorly you measured and cut them), until the excess had worn off enough to no longer rub but after that, the performance and grip at high speeds were outstanding on our cars, and it also looked "Bad Ass".
On the plus side, if you made the mounting plated for the belt material sturdy, there was zero concern about hitting anything like a curb or speed bump with the spoiler or skirts because the rubber just flexed over things and went back to its previous shape/position.
In conclusion, our mods were super cheap as well as actually functional.
I still have a huge roll of old conveyor belt material in my garage along with a 65 Mustang hatchback that I plan to Restomod in the future.
I am sure that old conveyors with belts still on them can be found at salvage yards all over the country and in my opinion, it's worth getting that material from them. I have also used my belt material for other mods and things over the years.
Whatever works, works. right!
Just bought 1999 mustang you clutch for this video I’ll have it in 4 weeks
Awesome! Goodluck on the build!
Awesome! What brand is the rear window louvers?
MSI Mach-speed inc. got them off eBay a while back
Borla stingers or S type is my preference for cat back. But yes also a must have. BBK borla slp magnaflow flow master or any top brand
Yes they are all good options!
That hood racing stripes with the red edges look nice man where did u get it?
Thanks! Got the stripes on American muscle and just got the pin striping at a random store
Hey so for the side skirts did you just get a garage door sealer and painted it the color of your car?
Yes but it came black so I didn’t paint it
Nice tang you got there
Thank you!
Very clean setup. Imma get a gt soon mind if I ask for some advice.
Go ahead man I don’t mind!
@@prestonsarlo so the car is pretty clean low miles about 40000 miles guy wants around 8k.I offered him 6500 he seemed like he wanted budge and ima get a paycheck soon so maybe, I hope we can meet in the middle. I live in cali and you can only do so much to make your car sounds as great as yours does. Can you help me find a legal setup in my state? I have to pass emissions
@@ivanfuentes1927 I also have to pass inspections because I live in NJ. Everything I have on my car is 100% legal and I have never had a problem. I have a slp loudmouth cat back on the car with a bbk catted h pipe. To keep it legal you have to keep the cats on the car so just do that!
@@prestonsarlo have you ever tested your dpa or had a dpa test by a police officer? Btw in Ca max is 95 dpa.
@@prestonsarlo also I just saw that No 2-cat H or X-pipe is smog legal.
Damm, I'm old school because the only list is the catback, springs and tire size. The flatt matte stripes would be in the top #4
I’ll agree with you on that!
Hey man, I've just bought the mach 1 chin spoiler, and I was wondering where you got your splitter below it and the springs/rods. I can't seem to find a decent one anywhere, except for a $400 piece from carters customs. Any help would be great!
I made it myself but I am making a website soon for people to order them!
@@prestonsarlo Wow, it looks great! Let me know when you get that going, I'll definitely buy one!
Those Cobra side mirrors are not cheap these days. Would love to find a set my my 03 GT.
Yeah they are tough luckily they came on my 04
Sweet ride I'm going to get a new edge Mustang like this one in 2026 does the to let you have I'm not going to do those till lights I'm going to do tinted cuz I saw some nice ones I like the headlights like the gray where the turn signal is I'm going to do that headlight you should put a red tape on your diffuser so it can match the stripes and then I'm going to do like a black trunk deck lid thank you for like showing me all the mods I have something to say I'm about to go to 8th grade this year in Australia but since I've been in 7th I think like April I watched your mod video so thank you for showing me I really appreciate your work I'm going to subscribe to you and that windshield banner that you got when I get my new Edge Mustang I'm going to do something like that but it's going to say Ford performance with like the purple performance uhmm word cuz I feel like I was going to match cuz I'm going to do a purple and black color look so I feel like it's going to match with the trunk deck lid Indian mattress the little black thing that you can put on the bumper before the diffuser so thx you should Ford badge as well if you want to do that I'm just trying to make a match like the stripes you got
Thanks for watching! Good luck with your mustang build!
@@prestonsarlo thx bro
have you tried the girlle delete instead of the honeycomb for the window scoops?
I personally don’t like the grille delete because everyone does it. The honey comb also matches the hood scoop
What size tires in the back and size wheels. Love the car man.
Bought a 1999 v6 but gonna drop a 302 in it🙏🤗
It’s a 15x10 wheel with a 275/50/15 on it!
@@prestonsarlo thanks brother
Badass mustang Gt ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💪💪💪💪💪💪
Appreciate it brotha!
Yea I would agree with the lowering springs, but NOT when you are running a 5.4L swap
Too much weight up front?
@@prestonsarlo very mine is already sagging in the front
Nice video…Lowering with wheels is the first thing I did after the Lmr facelift….
Thank you! And yeah that is a must for these cars
Some LED taillights would be awesome 👌
Could be cool!
@Preston Sarlo I bought some for my V6 new edge bro, S550 style, Spec-D tuning, if you get some, be sure to get a LED flasher relay from Raxiom ($40) and about $209 for the taillights, makes it really look good
99-04 are the best looking mustangs ever created.
Definitely one of the best!
I like every car in the driveway
Hahaha thank you
if u get your stuff from summit racingu can't go wrong there and they do have tons of stuff for the 2v.i did everything possibly that I wanted to do but supercharging it.my build is only capable of 600hp
Yeah they have great stuff on that website!
Shaky camera. So how did you do the rear diffuser? Looks great.
I made it out of sheet metal a couple years ago I unfortunately don’t have a video on it
Idky but these are my fav stangs use to be the 85 5.0 fox body
I agree with you!
Hey man you did a steer wheel swap? Can you post then video if you made one
I did it a while ago so don’t have any footage but I can try and answer some questions
I love how 5 0f the 10 comments have our mustangs as our pfp
Gotta represent!!
Hey I know this vid is older but I just have a question 🙋♂️ I’m trying to get those exact rally stripes that you have ! Where can I get them ?
I got them from American muscle!
I got 275 up front and 315 in the back lol
Some serious meat!
The only side window scoops start from the year 2015 and up. Are these the ones you have on your car? If so do you have to modify them to make them fit
These are made for the 2004 mustangs. Did not have to modify
@@prestonsarlo so basically I buy the ones for the 2004 and stick them on?
Correct@@pimpindistress101
Three of the best bang for the buck mods to a 4.6 is ford gt 500 super car rockers, when you port them heads , you are porting them heads ? and are adding a cam, you are adding cams? the super car rocks are lighter, stiffer, and increase head oil pressure, also better oiling to cam journals, and rollers on rockers, the cost over stock is not that much more, the ford lightning 90 maf, another Best Buy, the boss modular 5.0 block, about the most advanced modular block ever made, and an excellent natural aspiration block. Has a larger bore,3.7 unshouding the valves, and a larger bore makes more HP! Cost is responsible.
And one last bonus tip, trickflow 2 v heads, if ported by the right guy, will outflow 4v stock heads! nothing anyone can see, other than my rat rod, car ……way ahead of yours……lol.
My car was not built to look aggressive, it flat out is…….407 rwhp, naturally aspirated, and 2800 pounds. It’s aggressively fast. It eats coyotes and cobras.
My friend I’ve been looking for the number 2 window side where I can get them from❤
I’m not sure what you mean number 2?
Do you please have a list of parts and contacts to get them from
Super grateful
I’m sorry I do not. All the info I have is in the video
I wanna build my 02 gt but its automatic 😭 i miss my 98 cobra too other than needing a helicoil that mf was a BEAST
You can still have fun with an auto!
I have a front Mach 1 grill delete if interested I see your from New Jersey I’m from mass need to link up some day and make videos of our mustang
Hell yeah man!
I have a Challenger. I’m looking into other older cars I can mess with and not man-baby cry if anything happens to them. So I was looking at 4dr beaters I want to toss ugly fake air scoops on and whatnot. Found this though and had to come say that thing is a beauty. Love the color choice. I did the same.
I appreciate that man! These are awesome cars
How many miles can these last because all of the ones in my area r 100k n up and any other tips on where else to look other than marketplace
My motor went at 150k. Just have to be patient
I’m abt to buy a 02 mustang gt. 1400 for all the mods. Not bad at all
Hell yeah! Enjoy
@@prestonsarlo yessir!
is it bad to be putting mods on a v6? i know it’s not a fast car but i want it to look nice still so what should and shouldn’t be put on it?
Do whatever u want to ur car if u like it then do it
@@prestonsarlo appreciate it man
Are your rear rims 17x10.5?
(17in diameter x 10.5in width)
They are 15x 10
How did you make that splitter???
Go to my videos and I just made an entire video on how to just a couple weeks ago!
Where did you get the side skirts?
Made them myself! Garage door seal
Don't like the cat back exhaust. I have stock exhaust on mine and it sounds really good. Get comments on it all the time people want. There's a sound like mine. And can you take those lubers on your back window through a automatic car? Wash without him getting broke.
I wouldn’t take them through a car wash but that’s just me
God! All about the cosmetics man! Sounds cool, looks cool, but doesn’t drive cool. There is so much potential with that car but it was wastedd😅
U must not watch any of my other videos 😭 do some research bud
All that money, just for that "extra spice". Imagine how much more power you could have gotten for the money
The car is cammed and supercharged lol
@@prestonsarlo Awesome! But what I am trying to say is that your title may be misleading, especially if you have experience in installing performance modifications. Maybe specify that these are the "10 best visual mods for the money". In my experience, people who are encouraged to make their car look cooler instead of go faster never dig deep into performance, however everyone who is encouraged to focus on performance mods will develop their own sense of visual taste anyhow. Just my two cents, but don't get me wrong you do have a beautiful Mustang!
holy shit the camera must be sitting top of a washing machine
Actuality was sitting on top of ya mothas juicy thighs
What are your tire and wheel sizes??
Tire is a 275/50 and wheels are 15x10
what is your wheel specs the size and width?
15x10 on a 275/50
what splitter do u have
I make them!
What size tires do you run? Like to get them? 🤷
275/50/15 on a 15x10
@@prestonsarlo thanks bro! 😎
Lowe’s and Home Depot? For side skirts
I believe it was Home Depot
Love your car dude, which rear window louvers did you go with?
Appreciate it! And I don’t remember the exact brand. Bought them on eBay about 5 years ago
@Preston Sarlo need that rear diffuser tutorial in my life brotha🙏🏻🙏🏻
Not bad, not bad at all.... what about for power what have you done to it??
I’ve made a couple videos on it but it’s vortech supercharged
Clean 👍🏼🤝🏼
I hope so man.... I am on my way to pick it up....
I used to have a chin spoiler and louvres on my car too. But then I turned 12 and realized they just looked childish
We’ll hopefully when u turn 13 u will realize it’s my car and not yours so I can put on what I want 👍
what wheels do you have?
The rear are VMS 15x10
What was the width of the tires
275/50/15
What year new edge is that
2004
Needs a coyote swap!
Nah that’s for my truck
What’s all done to the motor internal wise
Stock internals just have cams
@@prestonsarlo and it can’t handle 500 wheel???
Can you drift in those tires ?
I would not drift in a drag radial lol
Shame it’s bone stock under the hood I mean at least an intake and maybe a throttle body upgrade to go with the cat back exhaust. I think the wider rear tires are a must tho they just look to good to not have lmao
The cars supercharged lol I just didn’t make that one of the upgrades because of the price
You definitely could hear the whine of a supercharger when he backed it out of the garage
Wish I didnt have a sunroof lol.
It is unique though
Bad@ss whip homie
Appreciate it brotha!
