Did something today I haven't done in almost two years....

I placed an order with NPD for more parts!! Bought a front bumper, rocker molding and vent window weatherstripping. I have not placed an NPD order, or any part order in almost two years!

I have had more parts lying around then I know what to do with but after a very exhausting weekend of working on the Mustang, all day Saturday with Jeff Tepper's help and half the day on Sunday by myself I got most of the exterior of the car assembled and need more parts.

I installed H4 headlights with relays and all LED Turn Signals, LED Parking and LED front turn signals. Everything worked and was very bright.

I pulled a few things back off and painted them on Sunday but now I know where everything is and should have the car street legal by this weekend!

Turns out the Nordan front bumper I have had wrapped up in my garage for three years is for a 69, so I have to buy a new front bumper.

Also painted the rear taillight fins and they look great, broke one of the pins off the first set so pulled out my near perfect set. I'll have to get that one fixed some day soon.
 
I would like to replace mine with LEDs too I did it on my truck and it is soo much brighter then stock!! Got any pictures?
 
And then he woke up from his nap and the dream vanished.......... :lol

What was your source for the relays?
 
I painted more parts tonight after work. I forgot how much I like taking stuff apart and painting it. I like the details!

I bought the relays at Auto Zone and wired them myself.....less than $20.

I used the Reen Machine relays and wiring and hid them below my battery tray.

The quality was great. http://www.reenmachine.com/shop/product.php?productid=16134&cat=259&bestseller=Y I didn't like the lamps and sold them to David67 which actually do look pretty good.

In the end I got Cibie lights from Daniel Stern. http://www.danielsternlighting.com/ He also sells everything needed to do the relays yourself. I bought that kit too and it was very nice!!!
 
Worked on the car again tonight for a couple hours. Mostly tweaking the grill and reinstalling the headlights. One of them is a little loose may need to replace the plate that the adjuster screw screws into. Not going to deal with it now.

So good to be back working on the car and the front end looks great. I will post pics after this weekend.
