2015 Ford Mustang GT

Yes, it's a simplified snap kit aimed squarely at the beginner's market. So what? Still can look decent if you are willing to invest a little effort into it... just like pretty much any other kit. I didn't want to wait for a full-glue kit, the idea of building a 2015 model in calendar 2014 kind of appealed to me as well.

Modifications to mine include resin headlights from Daft Wheels (a limited run which has already sold out) underneath covers cut from .010" clear styrene sheet, suspension lowered about 2.5 scale inches, modified Pegasus brake rotor/caliper castings, and tires from an AMT 2005 Chrysler. Paint is Testors Flaming Orange, applied after what few mold lines and sink marks I found on the body were taken care of.

I still might modify some '10 side mirrors to use on it, and I wish the glass unit was a little less "murky", but overall, I was actually pleasantly surprised by how good it looks with a little work, all things considered.

Enough yakkin'- here's what a few hours of work got me.
