I find his restraint, refreshing! One of the most famous builders in the biggest forum and he adds wheels and stripes...he respects the car/history!

Although I would personally prefer a little more rubber and a little less wheel - to give it a little more of that old school look - I think this is one of the best looking wheels I have seen on a FGT so far.

From the angle I had, I thought it looked quite nice - although I don't think that one can improve on the optional forged BBS wheels -

Ralphie, has the Foose GT got a tape stripe or a paint stripe? I've seen him use both on his show. How does the stripe feel to touch?

From my viewpoint, it looked like a paint stripe, although I didn't actually touch or feel it. I don't like to touch other people's cars, just like I'd prefer others to not touch mine.

Ditto. I didn't try to touch it to determine but it sure looked like paint than plastic. I don't think chip would resort to vinyl. It's just not his style.

Think about it. The guy rolls a 10 year old car into SEMA, essentially pure stock but for a few tiny personal tweaks, and it's a huge hit.

Shouldn't be a surprise. Same reaction my car gets everywhere I go.

I'm thinking of putting mine out for trade shows. Hmmm...

Exactly Correctomondo! A daily occurrence - the GT is still a "WOW" car. And always will be. Thanks Camilo. Thanks Ford.

I kinda liked his idea of carrying the orange strips on the body over into the duel stripes on backside of the wheel rims. 'Usually don't see something that being done.

The car's exhaust tips looked a lot bigger to me 'in person' than they do in photos/actually are. 'Appeared to be 4"!

For some darned reason, the car looked to me as thought it had been given a very slight 'top chop' too...but, I guess it must have been the lighting.

I liked the whole darned thing!
