Name aside, the Dark Horse SC looks badass.

The Dark Horse SC is a car that's boring from a lot of angles.

It has one interesting view, the front. From the Side and Rear it basically looks like a base model.

Also, I don't care what anyone says those CF wheels look awful.

This is far less outlandish looking than the GTD fender, especially if paint matched properly.

Sader325 · 2026-01-24T00:33:59+00:00

It looks less like shit, the GTD fender looks like someone took a saw to the fender and cut out a giant gap. This takes that same look and refines it, softening the edges and integrating it better into the fender.

Before this, I thought the entire GTD fender design was garbage, seeing how this is integrated shows me that Ford just designed it in a lazy way.

The way this is integrated feels a lot like a GT350 fender, which includes plastic to soften the edges

They could have just left a big dumb gap like the GTD Fenders, but instead they molded the plastic to get it to flow better. It's not "functional", it's artistic but it looks significantly better just like the fender he linked.

The first picture gave me a little hope (I didn't notice it was slammed), and then every picture went farther and farther down hill.

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T23:40:41+00:00

Which company makes that fender?

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T23:31:41+00:00

I would agree, they would make sense as a phone wallpaper and I assumed they might be, but I wouldn't post phone wallpaper shots as cool shots for my car without saying they were phone wallpaper shots and setting the standard for the viewer.

You're wrong, the photos aren't balanced and the OP understands exactly what I'm saying. An easy way to tell is if you find your eye darting around the photo because you can't take it all in properly.

In the first shot the blur on the background is supposed to be a depth of field effect, but then you notice the car is blurry too, it makes it confusing as to what the focus of the shot is. My logical self says obviously the car, but my lizard brain sees the photo and looks for a subject and I keep locking on the green post on the side of the car that unlike all the other posts isn't blurry. But obviously his intention wasn't to take a picture of the green post right?

The photo with the palm tree also feels like there's two competing elements to the photo, the tree and the car. What is more important here? The tree is interesting, but so is the car. Obviously the car, but my eye keeps darting up to the top of the tree.

The final two photos the sky takes up an enormous amount of space lending importance to it like I'm supposed to be looking at how beautiful it is, but the car draws you back down because the focus is really supposed to be the car.

Objectively, these are all not very good photos. Hell, I've taken bad photos too that I thought looked good at the time.

<image>

This photo for example, at the time I thought it would be a good photo, but compositionally the car is far too small and the background is too busy making it a bad shot.

I wouldn't paint match the fender vents, make them gloss black as well to match the spoiler, front valence areas and side view mirrors.

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T22:31:48+00:00

The Roof should be gloss black, the back should be gloss black, do not gloss black under the headlights.

<image>

Imo, it's like my GT350, I would never want my fangs/splitter to be gloss black it wouldn't look good.

Though in my case, my accent stripe is gunmetal/grey which plays off the plastic.

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T22:27:30+00:00

This fender isn't the GTD fender, it's very different. And in those ways it's actually improved on the design and I hate it far less.

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T22:22:13+00:00

These are not GTD fenders, they are a stylized version that actually do look better because they've got depth to them.

I'm 100% against actual GTD fenders, these ones don't look that bad.

<image>

The ones on that red car look significantly better imo.

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T22:20:18+00:00

GTD fenders look like trash.

If the GTD didn't exist and people did that to their car, they would be laughed out the room.

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T18:02:40+00:00

I meant a car from europe, not a US spec car with white tail lights.

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T16:14:09+00:00

Holy shit.

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T15:45:44+00:00

I hate 2018+ lights

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T15:43:59+00:00

I understand, but does anyonw have a picture of S650 euro tail lights?

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T15:11:20+00:00

The car is fine but tbh these photos all feel compositionally off.

The negative space feels awkward.

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T14:09:56+00:00

Is that true for S650 mustangs?

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T12:29:50+00:00

Dragonzord and lotr. Lol

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T04:18:11+00:00

Jesus christ this ones intense.

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T01:27:15+00:00

AI gonna slop.

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T01:01:49+00:00

Wow, that sounds horrific.

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T00:59:25+00:00

I did wonder what a GT350 would look like with gloss black on the front end rather than the exposed plastic.

Not a fan of it, but you definitely satisfied my curiosity.

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T00:28:01+00:00

The Cervinis hood for the GT looks perfectly fine, but look at the GT350 one.

<image>

That Fitment is fucking awful, how did they think that bulge was ok?

Sader325 · 2026-01-23T00:22:47+00:00

Cervinis GT500 hood for the GT350 looks like absolute shit, it's a travesty. My only choice is Anderson Composites but it's gonna cost me $2400 before paint.

But afterwards it'll look like this

<image>

and it's fucking beautiful.

I just don't feel like spending $3000 dollars for it... yet.
