Default 2011 Mustang - Next Mod ?

Looking for next mod on my 2011 v6 convertible...

done so far:
- 4.10 Gears
- Wider wheels/tires: 20x10 & 20x9 with 285/30/20 & 255/35/20 Michelin PS2
- Steeda CAI
- Brenspeed Custom Tune
- Suspension (Koni STR T / Eibach Pro / UMI LCA + relocation / UMI adj panhard bar)
- Front DS Safety Loop

wish to do but expensive (will do if I find a good deal ):
- convertible style bar / lightbar
- aluminum driveshaft

removed:
- borla atak (too loud for a convertible + 4.10 + daily driver)

what else can I/ would you suggest to do ?

Need a little more information. What do you feel like the car is lacking? That will help folks around here make suggestions for what to do next.

Otherwise...supercharge it!

I would suggest an off road x/h pipe for some more power at a low cost.

No can do. He lives in Cali and those will not pass smog.

My suggestion is to pay off the car. I know thats not the popular thing, or even remoatly fun in anyway but in the long run it will give you more money to play with once its payed off.

You look like you have a good baseline started with the car. Now enjoy it for a while and just try to pay it down. Or go 3 month with no mods, putting the money you would have spent as payment on the car, then buy a mod. You could get something small like a Oil Catch can, floor mats, trunk mat, ect.

Go with a either MGW or a Barton shifter. MGW is the best but Barton not to far behind in quality and performance. I've basically done the same as you to mine including the aluminum drive shaft and the shifter is my next step.

Would you mind posting a pic of the car so we can get an idea of how it looks as is?
