There is a grey Mustang around here that has Decepticon badges - actually done well. I'll have to get a couple pics.

Barricade was a Saleen S281, not a GT500.

that Mustang is an 05-09, so chances are, he had it dressed up that way before the first 5th gen ever hit the streets.

If that's the case, why not just take off the sticker and avoid looking like a poser?

Have you ever considered that maybe this person can't afford to buy a new car at this time?

So instead they spent a few hundred dollars to get their car as close as possible to the real thing.

If you can afford a Mustang with monitors on the head rests (Yes, I took a peek inside) you can affor a Camaro.

Judging by the tackiness of the whole thing, I'd be shocked if the car was new when it was painted up like that. Chances are the guy who did it bought it used in the last couple years & went from there.
