Bangastang Hell Snake

Our first Bangastang Hell Snake was unveiled on March 11th to a large crowd of Mustang enthusiasts in southern California.
The Hell Snake by Bangastang are custom upgrade packages that are available to any 2007-2013 GT500. The upgrade packages include exterior upgrades, interior upgrades, suspension upgrades and performance upgrades.  Bangastang offers three phases of upgrades.  Our Phase I is a combination of exterior, interior and engine dress-up.  Phase II adds suspension upgrades such as lowering springs, struts, sway bars and brakes.  Our Phase III adds performance with custom dyno tuning, headers, exhaust and supercharger upgrades.
Bangastang Hell Snakes are custom makeovers that are designed to be show cars. Our exterior upgrade include a complete repainting.  Four coats of PPG Deltron paint is applied with six coats of PPG 2021 clear.  Three different grits of sandpaper are used to wet sand the Hell Snake.  During the buffing and polishing process several different compounds and buffing pads are used to achieve a show car finish.
We wanted a paint finish that would look a mile deep. All stripes and graphics were applied with paint, no vinyl decals are used. 

The engine bay on the Hell Snake was a very important element of the customizing.  We wanted to create an engine compartment that would grab your attention.  A 2.9 Whipple supercharger that was polished would set the tone for the engine bay, we had all billet accessories polished to match with
the finish of the blower.  The coolant tanks, fuse box cover and ECM cover, billet shock tower covers,
thermostat housing and all mounting hardware were professionally polished.  Even the latch on the
hood was polished.  We believe small details make a big difference in how a car will show.  Our
Bangastang Radiator Cover for the '10-'12 GT500 was painted to match the stripe design of the
Hell Snake.

All Hell Snakes come with custom leather interior that matches up with exterior stripes.  The
headrest are embroidered with Hell Snake.  The door panels are also reupholstered with stripes that mimic the fender stripes.  The shifter boot and e-brake handle boot are also customized.  Several
billet accessories from Silverhorse Racing were also added to the Hell Snake interior.

Options for the Hell Snake are extensive.  Our goal is to build a custom show car that looks the part and performs.  We don't believe in using cheap materials or products.  Buy quality accessories and buy once, buy cheap parts and you'll keep replacing them over and over.

On March 17th at the 50th Anniversary Shelby Team Bash in Las Vegas the Hell Snake owned by Dave P. took home a 1st Place trophy in it's class.  One spectator said "the Hell Snake is not a car but a piece of art". Congratulations to Dave and his Hell Snake.

Our first Hell Snake features a carbon fiber hood, roof cover, trunk lid, rear spoiler, front splitter and rocker panels.  Several new parts billet aluminum engine dress-up were installed on the Hell Snake, a
Fuse Box Cover and ECM Cover.  Both Fuse Box Cover and ECM Cover are now available from
