Angry Mustang aftermarket has forgotten where it all began.

I'm sure some people won't agree w/ me or just won't care, but I'm really getting fed up with this. Aftermarket is pissing me off. Just about everything now is geared towards the '87-present Mustangs. And if not '87, then '83-present. What about the '79s???? First of the Foxes. Did we contribute nothing to the Mustang family? Did the Foxes just automatically begin at '87 or was there some building off of the later models???????? (rhetorical Q)

Hoods, guages (cluster panels), carbon fiber, etc. Must I get everything custom made? And NO, I REFUSE to switch my grill (bumper cover) over to a newer model ('84-93) so I can accomodate aftermarket's preference for newer stangs. I'm staying with my '79. Aftermarket's incompetence will not detour my plans and I will do what it takes to make my car what I want it to be-- exactly what I want it to be-- that even means making something myself.

I am not yelling at YOU guys, just venting. And I adore '87-93, but I adore '79-93 MORE. The Foxes are my personal favorites.
