Our today’s feature is dedicated to a very special New Edge Mustang build, that was put together by a big fan and enthusiast of this model in his own garage.
The care and dedication that went into this build is evident from the first glance. It started life as a black GT, but was later DIY painted by the owner in bright red color, which created a perfect styling base for further exterior upgrades and custom aero package.

Exterior
Unlike many SN95 projects, this build features a more aggressive track-inspired styling with a low and wide stance and custom wide-body aero kit. A closer look at the exterior of the car reveals a lot of unique solutions inspired by the world of motorsports, tastefully combined with more common New Edge upgrades.
The front ’03-’04 Cobra bumper was further enhanced with a black custom grille, center-mounted LED light bar, racing-style cutouts and a custom-fabricated lip.
“So, my take was a hybrid of the Magicdrift lip and Carters Customs race splitter with a couple extension pieces for a slightly deeper lip in the front but not as deep as the race lip. This also gave me the proper rod angle and positioning – I really liked how @rebellious_mach did his and I wanted to do something similar but four rods instead! I also cut out the two vertical beams that is usually inside the bottom valance opening (where the light bar is). Definitely opened up the bottom half!”
Other major exterior upgrades include the custom hood with a scoop, side skirts, rear diffuser, Cobra wing with a wickerbill, C2 Carter’s Customs rear diffuser, rear window louvers, and of course a set of custom fender flares that cover wide 18×11 Cosmis Racing XT206R wheels all around.
Custom Headlights
Another striking detail is the set of custom projector headlights with black internals and HEX LED DRLs that add a sort of cyber-punkish character to the look of this Mustang. Blacked-out LED taillights continue the theme on the back of the car.
