+2. If not Shelby, then don't advertise as Shelby...that's why they're "limited-editions."

1) Add a white pinstripe to the outside of the stripes.
2) Get some red midwest auto mirror covers.
3) Get either a cervinia or cdc ducktail spoiler

That hood scoop needs to have the stripe cover the sides of it. Lowering springs, adj. panhard rod and(if desired) uca/lca and relocation brackets. Definitely some larger wheels/tires(I think American Racing's 20" Shelby series chrome Torq-Thrust M wheels would look great) A CDC chin spoiler and Ram Air induction and you'll have a TacoBill clone(which is a good thing).
Sweet car, congrats!

okay....here is where we need to start.......

since your car says shelby, you'll ned to make it a Shelby...

you can start with the emblems.....your car already says shelby so change all ur emblems to shelby emblems.....

then, you'll need to get the shelby rear spoiler.......

concentrate on the exterior the most since that is what most people will see....if they see "Shelby" on the side, they will want to see a shelby, not amix match.....

I love my mac exhaust.
As far as mods,
I hate the wing spoiler, sry guys - ima ducktail fan
1/4 louvers are nice - louvers or scoops
hood scoop is an opinion thing
i think the the one thing that is a must is a front end change. i am avidly lookign for a scheme that will work good together.
Things to consider
1 foglights or no
2. front fascia - watch out for lowering with a low lip
3. make sure fasic lines well with scoops/louvers
Click the link on my sig. I am still looking for a front end change, but the rest is there (no lowering for now)
Have fun and MAKE IT YOUR OWN.
