    Because you don't have fender liners inside those big wide fenders, I might consider coating the inside of them with rhino/bedliner. it'll be a ton more insulation, strengthen the fiberglass and protect the wheel wells.

    If adding rear glass to the firewall isn’t an option, look into a digital rear view mirror. They have a much wider view angle than a normal mirror and help you see blind spots without having to change the outside aesthetic of the side mirrrors

This build could of been great but just like what he said about the sema batmobile he just didn't deliver and it could of been so much better if he actually took the time to make a nice build besides something that is rushed just like every other build he does. He spends no time on drivability or comfort, or any other cool features or even refinement that makes a build special.

    on your mirrors, i would try putting them on your front fenders. It would give you more visibility and would maybe make it look even better. awesome car love watching your videos.

    1) Safety thing for the nitrous bottles: Best to point the tops away from passengers
    2) wrap that roll cage with foam near your head
    3) Fender liners!

    This mustang is so much nicer in execution than any of your other recent cars imo.

    Yes! I’m so happy you caught these guys. Portland break ins and car thefts are out of control. Shout out to simply safe.
