So, this is what American made cars have come to huh? I love my Fords, but this is fucking pathetic. Double Sided sticky fucking tape? for fucks sake, what ever happened to grade 8 nuts and bolts? No wonder all the fucking hardware stores are closing down near me.
@SBrandon562 3M tape has been used for body kits for many many years. We have never had any issues with it. As long as the surfaced is cleaned and prepped properly, you don't have to worry about it coming off. Personally, I'd rather use tape that can be safely removed, instead of drilling holes everywhere.
@motorztv Well I can see it being used for a track car. But not a daily driven ride. Idk, I just find it to be kind of cheap. Why not take actual pride in the work you do to your daily driver and to it the old fashioned way. I'm sure they didnt use double sided sticky tape back in the 60's to put these types of accessories on a car. Cars just aren't made how they used to be. Then again i'm only 22 lol what do I know.
@SBrandon562 I'm fairly sure that the 3M tape that's used today with adhesion promoter didn't exist back then. It's not about pride, it's about better ways of doing things.
@fofofoofong7 Yes, it's on TV every week on DIRECTV, DISH Network, and other places on TV as well as the Internet. See the motorz.tv website for more info!
@Oster910 There's no way to bolt it on, unfortunately. It has to use the hardware that comes with the louver. Applied correctly, it should stick on there for a long time.
I don't get what he did with the blue tape and silicone. He dabbed the silicone on the blue tape does he keep the blue tape on cause it seems if he took off the blue tape the silicone would come off as well.
Naphtha works good on taking off glue like dealer stickers or 3M glue and it won't harm paint just give it a little time to work ( 2 min ) and it will start to soften.
I like the exterior changes, but personally I'm not too crazy about the changes made under the hood. I would've just gave it hood struts and called it a day. Thanks for the vid though, it'll be useful if I ever decide to add louvres to a car.
waaaaaaaaaaaaayy tooooooooooooo much plastic don't you people think? if i would do that i would get some nice aluminum brackets instead of cheap plastic.
I'm not gonna lie, it looks good, but for some reason I feel like a car should be put together with, oh, I dunno, metal bits, bolts, clips, screws, not a shitload of 3M tape and some snaps. From a few feet back it looks good, but up close you just know somehow that it's cheap plastic.
good episode chris. the ride looks awsome. but u should do the fast playing video when installing parts and not just skipping the instalation process. anywhay great episode.
We forgot to shoot some nighttime video of the halos. I'll try to get a photo so we can add it to the episode notes at the MOTORZ website. BTW, thanks for subscribing!
Thanks! Starting with this season, it's a half hour show on television so that's made episodes about twice the duration as usual. Some will be broken up into multiple parts, but I couldn't do it with this one. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the show with a cold one!

A few questions:
Is that a gt premium?
Were the stock rims the 18" bullitt style chrome wheels?
My car is also a 2008 mustang gt(prem.)
wbc564 6 months ago
@wbc564 He doesn't think it was a Premium. The dealer wanted $2500 to upgrade to the 18" wheels, tint and put in an alarm.
motorztv 6 months ago
@motorztv hmm, I ask because i'm fairly sure the leather seats were only on the gt prem.
my mustang has tinted windows (not sure whether they were tinted at the factory(if the factory did) or wherever...
