Brian’s Bagged 2015 Ford Mustang GT now bagged on Vossen VLE-1 Wheels is not for the faint of heart….

What else could I title this latest feature but “0 F*cks Given”? I can’t think of anything more appropriate right now and Brian obviously doesn’t care what I or anyone else thinks. This is the next chapter in Brian’s amazing 2015 Mustang GT Build and you probably recall the first stage which we featured here. To me that is the classic Mustang look, the Roush kit looks amazing, the car is black with our graphite Vossen Forged VPS-302 wheels and its simply a head turner. Brian has been hinting for sometime he wanted to take it to another level bagging the car and a few of us thought the car looked perfect the way it was. Expect obviously Brian…

Enter our long time friends at Accuair and our new friends Bag Riders. Brian did his research and decided this was the best system for his Mustang and of course everything was installed by the mad scientist Danny at Slammered. Danny has worked on multiple project vehicles for us and they all have been reliable and looked and worked just as we planned!

You likely notice a couple of other big changes. The first, Brian’s black Mustang under went a radical color change a few months ago. Done by the team at RodWraps, the car now features a brushed aluminum wrap. In pictures it looks amazing and in person it looks intense. It also really feels like brushed aluminum. Also note the sick new headlights done by ONEEighty NYC! Able to change different colors, they give his Stang another custom touch.

Finally Brian truly chose his direction and went with our limited edition VLE-1 wheel in gloss graphite finish. Measuring 20×9 up front and 20×10.5 in the rear, they tuck perfectly under his bagged suspension. Obviously we all know this wheel is not for everyone and again Brian isn’t really worried about anyones opinion. He loves it and as a car enthusiast, isn’t that what really matters? These wheels are once again wrapped in highly recommended Toyo Tires, the T1-R series. They look fantastic and offer amazing grip. They also allow for some sick ass burnouts which you can see in the video. We expect a call from Stan at Toyo any minute now 😀

Brian has taken this Mustang all over the East Coast from the American Muscle Show in Pennsylvania to Mustang Week at Myrtle Beach to Formula D in Atlanta and Orlando. What could be next for the third chapter? Well SEMA is around the corner…
