Question Decisions Decisions

I'm going to be getting some money in late January. Well as always I good percentage of any money I get goes into my car (Its a vicious cycle, but I just can't stop! Lol)

Anyways I can't make up my mind on what I want to do. Its between GT seats, GT front bumper, Reverse C stripe, or Pioneer 3200 head unit. Just want some thoughts.

I'd go with the GT front bumper but for the same price, I rather go with the CS.

Or if it's the same to you, write each option on a separate piece of paper and put it in a jar...
Close your eyes and pick one paper.
What ever it says on it, that's what you should get, lol.

Can I get the CS bumper for around the same price? I've been looking around, because besides the GT500 bumper, which I can't swing quite yet, thats the one I want.

Lol and I will be keeping the jar idea around.

That's the cheapest way to get the cs bumper.

Those things on your list are all over the place regarding price.

So, I say get the C-Stripe for about $85.00 and then use the other $500.00 you didn't spend to buy that fiance of yours something nice as a late Christmas gift!

It'll come back to you ten-fold I promise.

Lol I know. My friend found the Pioneer for $350, but I would have to get it installed. The C stripe would be the cheapest, but idk how it would look.. I found a couple pairs of GT seats for around $500 on Ebay and the GT bumper would be about $500 maybe a little over installed.

I would do the bumper hands down if I didn't think some damn opossum would pop out on the road right after I got it.

I would get the head unit. The GT bumper would be slick, but fiance's generally go for the more shiny bright glowing stuff. So if you want to distract her get the head unit. For her it will change the car "noticeably". I say all this since my fiance responds better to led dome lights rather than racing stripes, rims, or longtube headers.

Lol I am the girl (mom screwed up with the name) haha. He thinks I should get the head unit or bumper... idk they are all good choices.

Then I have even considered just doing the small stuff to 'Stang, like mirror caps, shorty, and sequential tail lights. That would take care of all the smaller stuff I want done.
