Default CMCV and UD Pullies vs. Apperance mods

hey guys..

just wondering if you thought i should throw the next approximate $250 on CMCV deletes and UD pullies, and break 300 to the wheels..

or do my first appearance mods.. xenon side scoops, (not the 1/4 window) and hood pins..

Going faster is always my priority but do what you want because you will do that eventually anyway because you are a Mustang fanatic.

That was true for me on some other things but with the mustang, it's already infinitely faster than my old cars so I'm spending my first round of money making it look and sound the way I want. It's not like this is a slow car.

I love having an unassuming car that just tears up the road. I will always say go for more speed before appearance. Plus, this is one good looking car stock so not much needs to be done IMO. If I were to go with cosmetics I would do things that were functional in making the car perform better like some lower springs and LCA... suspension stuff..... to not only give a smoother look on the street but also a better driving experience. Or I would put on some nicer wheels with better tires to rip the road. Two birds with one stone if you know what I'm saying. Overall we all have a picture of what our ultimate stang would be so whatever mods get you closer to that goal seems good to me.

How are you going to break 300HP when all they add is 10HP? You will also need to include in the cost a custom tune.

Look at his signature, he already has a custom tune, etc. I don't know how close he is to the 300HP mark but if he's only 10 away or so, that'd push him over.

he was close. he is at like 291rwhp.

I would do the power mods first. Both those mods are great...

It depends what you want to do, if you want your car to tear up the track then get some suspension mods and new tires, If you want to take it to car shows make it pretty , if you want to get a good HP number out of it add performance mods,

I like to do a little bit of all of that , now im kinda focusing more on the power aspect becasue , but i also like spending money on little things that can make it look good.

Ive been there with the body kits , dont do it
If i had to do it over again id get new wheels and tires lower it put a chin spoiler on it and then just add little things to the appearence.
