Default Some "Decorating" Advice Please

I am basically done with mods for a while...really happy with the way my Mustang has turned out. I had planned on going FI, but after the new Race tune from Bama and the new gears...the car feels as if someone swapped out motors on me...so I think I am done...jeez.

Anyway, I am thinking one more farkle to add on, but I cannot decide if it looks good or is over the top.

Below is my car (pic from yesterday). I am thinking about a black and polished billet fuel door. I think it would tie in the dark and polished on the car...but I dont want to go over the top.

My wife (normally the decorating top) gave me the rolled eyes...so no help there.

Any thoughts? BTW, I like the black rockers and the tan stripes...they are not coming off. I think the black contrast looks good.

maybe the gt/cs/gt500 rear bumper to give the side skirts more flair. it would complete the "bottom end" of your car, not to mention, it will make your duals look even better

good luck

Agreed, I am not feeling the fuel door on the look that your car has now. Not enough to warrant the polished/black door.
