Looks good. Is the same thing going in the bottom? Also that drivers side headlight could you some love. Take a pic in the daylight and I am sure you will get some advice on what to do with it.
 
my birthday is in 24 days im gonna get a new headlight and CF hood :laugh: ...but im not gonna put a grille on the bottom because im gonna get that turbo kit and i like the way the intercooler looks :cool: thanks tho it took my a while to do the grille just got done with it and snapped a few pics

nearly 16 and already talking about a turbo on one of the hardest cars to install a turbo on.

good luck.

BTW, nice work, my first mod on my old tour when I was 16 was a mesh grille. looked awesome, BTW make sure to clearcoat the mesh or it will tarnish like a mother.
 
damn rich kids. i'm lucky if i have enough money to pay for my insurance bill every month. lol. car looks good though!
 
Are you kidding me? When i was 16 I was dreaming of having a car like that but Ive had to work my way up wow, I wish i was that lucky!!!!!!!
 
my mom saved alot of money when i was little for a car and she took that out and my saving bonds for the car.. but i wouldnt trade my car for any other car i LOVE it!

wait until i get 16 and get a job then the real modding begins !

After a complete engine build, there isn't much left other than drive terrain and misc. mods.:rolleyes:

I think fog lights was the first mod, then mesh. Looks real good. Kudos

At 16 years old, the money you make on a first job doesn't pay for much. You always want to think that, but that's not the reality.

I made 5.75 an hour at Farmer Jack's when I was 16. it took me a month to save up for a CTA intake. Jeez, I cant imigine how long it would have taken me to save up for a 3L swap, let alone a BUILT 3L swap... That is if my 'tour would have had a duratec in it. I liked my little zetec ^.^
 
As a 16 year old I may $7 an hour, which was pretty good compared to most kids. Keep saving the money and with enough discipline you'll have the money. I started modding the car when I was 16 and now I'm 18 and just now nearing completion on the 3L. Good job on the mesh btw, that was my first mod as well.
