Default Looking to do some dress up to my Stang.

I know the muscle car community is not very open to putting bolt-on parts to make a car appear better (aftermarket lights and grilles and such), because we like to respect the way it was made and work on performance stuff instead.

However my car just isn't cutting it. I don't like the way the previous owners did. They removed the pony from the grille, put a decent hood on her but decided to ruin the hood with some cheap autozone cotter-pin locking type hood pins. The headlights haven't weathered well over the years either and have turned yellow and fogged up.

I want to replace the headlights with once-piece headlights no questions asked, and they have to be clear on the front so they won't fog as bad. I think charcoal lights would look good with the stang too. I want to put a pony back in the grille and I want to replace the rednecked hood pins with some nice high quality locking type. I found some images of the stuff that I like and photoshopped some stuff together.

My friends like the photo that has no billet in it, just the pony, headlights, and black hood pins. What do you think?


This is the car as it is now, stock.

This is the Idea all my mustang friends seem to think I should go with. I will probably go with this one too.

However I don't know if any of you would like some billet added in (kinda tunerish...) but It deserves to atleast be considered:

Tell me which one you guys like the most.


[EDIT] :: I'd probably be open to the idea of chrome headlights now that I look at these images now also...

To be completely honest, I think it looks great as is. The only thing I'd throw on is the chrome horse in the center of the grille.

Yeah... I just don't like the idea of cheap hoodpins on a DD, someone could steal stuff from under my hood. And I figured I could put black ones on it so they wouldn't rust or tarnish...

And I don't like old foggy headlights. Make the car look like it's older than it is. =]
