Roush stage 2 front - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

vadermach · 04-08-2012, 02:26 PM

Finally pulled the trigger on a Roush stage 2 front bumper add on. I ordered it from stage3motorsports. I have a black mach and am thinking of painting it flat black like the chin spoiler. I think it will add a touch of custom personality without changing the whole bumper. Plus I've never seen a mach with this and I like to be a bit different than the rest and enhance the look without making it gaudy or be a cobra poser. I will add pics once it gets here.

i think the roush kit looks great with our cars man, definitely gotta see some pics

Mustanger2 · 04-11-2012, 09:50 PM

Me too I love the Roush bodykit for our cars!

It looks to... Ricer to me. But different strokes...

mach1of03 · 04-12-2012, 07:30 PM

I think i would rather be a cobra poser than a look a like rice

USAF_Rock · 04-13-2012, 03:41 PM

im not really seeing the "ricer" effect.. maybe if his car was slammed, painted neon green w/ and orange checkered flags on the hood, and a coffee can muffler. THEN maybe i could see what ya'll are seeing. I think it looks like a nice street stang

R-code17815 · 04-13-2012, 08:39 PM

Your not gonna get much more "MUSTANG" than ROUSH.

Imma fan....

ASH302 · 04-13-2012, 11:27 PM

man you made a great choice going with stage 2 i know its going to look good and be different than seeing the stage 3 front, good choice

ASh

Mustanger2 · 04-13-2012, 11:54 PM

LOL... I don't expect everyone to like what I do but that's what our hobby is all about...one man's rice is anothers dream car! But you take the whole New Edge Roush kit & really give it a chance ...look at it from all angles & it will hook most people! It REALLY turns heads & attracts people...The Stage 2 front fascia will be a two piece affair it looks VERY good IMO...I run that design on my 94 so it's close.

Here is a great shot of the ONLY factory Roush Mach 1 in existence...My favorite car of all time... I almost got a chance to buy it from Brian on here...
one of one...the most exclusive Roush of all!

ASH302 · 04-14-2012, 12:11 AM

man if i was going to go with a roush front it would be the stage 2 front, it looks better than the stage 3 IMO. i was think of doing it myself, but never did and prob won't, but it would for sure be a choice i would choose for sure

ASh

Mustanger2 · 04-14-2012, 12:24 AM

OK here is the Stage 2 front...
Dang I don't know why it keeps coming out sideways! I rotated the image on Photobucket & it is right there! OH well just tilt you monitor! LOL...

Mustanger2 · 04-14-2012, 12:34 AM

there.. I got it uploaded vertically! Now you can compare...

vadermach · 04-19-2012, 09:52 PM

Finally got the Stage 2 Roush front from stage3motorsports. Finished painting it myself today in flat black. It came out looking good IMHO. Can't wait to install it. I'll post pics after the install. I really think it will enhance the chin of the mach without changing its whole attitude, ie stage 3 or cobra front bumper.

ASH302 · 04-19-2012, 10:27 PM

man that is going to look good, i can't wait to see
again man GREAT CHOICE for sure
i know its going to look good on the mach

ASh

vadermach · 04-21-2012, 12:24 PM

Here are a few quick pics of how it turned out. I think it looks good in the satin black against a black mach. Definitely different, stealthy and not over the top. I like it. Let me know what you all think.

ASH302 · 04-21-2012, 12:30 PM

man i love it, that chite looks good, stealth look too
i like alot

ASh

ASMACH · 04-21-2012, 01:01 PM

Imo those would have looked better if the lip went all the way across instead of have a empty gap therein the center

USAF_Rock · 04-21-2012, 01:12 PM

lookin good, like a b-52.STEALTH!

ASH302 · 05-06-2012, 11:02 PM

can you get some updated pictures of your mach, maybe a little more sun and get a few pictures on all sides,

ASh

vadermach · 05-10-2012, 06:05 PM

Here are a few quick shots.

vadermach · 05-10-2012, 06:17 PM

This is a DD car not a show car so as you can see the front bumper could use some attention and yes the hood is starting to peel (ugggggh). I am trying to think of how I want it painted and if I want to attempt this hood painting project myself or not. Problem is I am quite fond of the DOHC hood decals I have and they are no longer made and can't be replaced.

However my next upgrade is brakes since I'm still on the original pads/rotors from 2003. (looking at EBS sport slotted W/EBC yellow pads)

I think this addition looks really good and the satin black seems to match the spoiler and side louvers I have quite nicely adding to the overall black on black look. I plan on painting the rear louvers the same color shortly to match better. It accomplished my goal of adding a little more aggressive look without detracting from the overall Mach 1 design. I think it flows well with the stock side skirts as well which was a overall cost consideration.

ASH302 · 05-23-2012, 11:10 PM

man sorry it took me so long to get back on this thread, thanks so much for uploading more pictures,
you have convince me to (if i do go with something different) to do this, same color and everything, i think it would look killer being black on a SY mach
i might have it painted alittle gloss on it, so it would match up with my roush wing on the rear, but love it
congrates man looks amazing
