I liked the Mustang dorito rims that were posted first best, followed by the Saab dorito/throwing star, followed by the Saab 6 spoke, and I think the Saab 3 lobe rims suck.

I don't remember what kind of eclipse he had, but my friend had one of the older roundbody eclipses like this one:
Just the regular 4 banger. Even with a CAI and full exhaust (headers back) I still whooped his ass lol, both from a roll and dig, although I raped him from a dig.

Re: Graham's 12 year-old Horse (AKA 1998 Ford Mustang)
I had the 2000 2.4L Eclipse. HOLY f**k - THIS MUSTANG HAS POWER!!!! I like the wheels. It's starting to warm up and I can anticipate the Mustang needing new tires but not until next winter (if I have it that long )
I'm thinking about going tintless (at least for now. What do you guys think?
@eagle, I don't plan on doing too many mods other than new tint, CD player, and new speakers. Do I have to get an adapter for new CD player for the 'Stang? Do you know right off what size speakers to get? My car still has the Ford Factory CD player.

Re: Graham's 12 year-old Horse (AKA 1998 Ford Mustang)
There's this local shop that does tinting and only charged like $20 to take the tint off my Eclipse. Seems reasonable to me since it's really something I hate doing.paul34 wrote:Tintless would look better than the purple stuff (which will start bubbling, peeling, and blurring fairly soon anyway), but good luck getting it off.
The heat works great in the Mustang!

My slushbox Buick would have bitten the dick off of my Eclipse from a dig and from a roll.
The Eclipse did nothing but look good and do well and handling. Acceleration was okay, and only okay.

Stock stereo sucks cock though. It clipped and distorted everything.

Nice, man. I do have to wonder where the automotive ADD will lead next. You've had a few nice-ass whips over the years.
*first person to make a joke/innuendo about "nice-ass whips" will be castrated. That is all*
Needs new tint.

I like the purple tint. It's not too heavy and looks good with the black paint.
