This is going to sound like an asshat thing to say, but.... there's a reason you don't see them on Camaros/Firebirds. It would look out of place the same way those ridiculous BMW Z3 fenders look. I wouldn't do it.

I was referring to the molded vents by the rear tires. I think they could be done nice stretched across the door to the rear quarter.

The mustang has the body lines for it. On a 3rd gen, they would look tacked on, no matter what.
