why did you decide to have an exhast tip that turns down? i dont think i've ever seen that on a bird before, usually thier straight out the back. i'm not really criticizing, just curious.

Because out the back is gay.

Technically, I think it's IN the back that's gay :hick:

The waffle stars look great, Shawn, especially in body color.

Grutinator: I think all stock 83-88 T-Bird/Cougar exhausts turn down. All of mine have, anyway, and my custom 2.25" true duals turn down as well. Because, um, out the back is gay. :D

But Shawn, your exhaust is out the back therefore it is gay.
It's just limp as opposed to erect :giggle:
Hell, everyone has exhaust out the back except for Paul and Eric that I can think of.

They don't look bad. I can't say I like this look more than the Snowflakes but it isn't bad.

I do plan on cutting the turndown so it doesnt extend as far downwards, i needed a turndown bad since it was dumping soot all over my bumper, and i was impatient.

As for the wheels, i like them, but i like the snowflakes, i like these more because they show the brake work ive done, and theyre not stock on a fox body, something a little different

ive got more pictures, but my friends compaqflash disk's format doesnt work with my computer, so i need him to upload them for me.

And the brakes...

The rears look basically the same, never took pics of them with the wheels off.

Dude... those waffle stars look AWESOME on your Turbo Coupe. I wouldn't change a thing to what you've done.
You better be driving that thing to Cat Jam.

Looks like you will make it to Catjam now with the TC.

And yes that does look good with the waffle stars in body color.

rims look awsome but the turn down isnt looking great if you tuckit like blackjack said or saw it off it might look better. overall looks great. nice job. how big are your rotors? cant wait till i can afford to do brakes.

Wow those look great, better than on a Stang. How did you get rid of the pony in the center cap though?

Brakes are 11", nothing bigger than stock...other than the rears, theyre about 10.5, as opposed to the 10.25 of the TC.

Oh I thought you filled them with body filler or something before you painted them.

Looks good, but not too fussy on the wheels, and you definately gotta fix that tip, lol, keep up the good work!

Looking good, but being someone that likes the underdog of almost everything, I like the look of the car in your current sig a bit more.  But hey, it's not my car, so do whatever you want to it and enjoy the hell out of it!  And treat it well, of course.  Anyways, great job!

PS - to those who don't like it "out the back," how about the way that Hawk has his exhaust?  That's how I want my dual exhaust to be because I think turndowns look sissy on dual exhaust; it's one of my pet peeves on my car right now, actually.

Once i get my new tires mounted, ill let you know. On these tires, anything similar to a quick stop means locking em up.
