Default what to do with $2k

well my car is finally paid off(to my parents) and now i have a little bit of money left over($1800) and i want to put it some where in my mustang.

what do you guys think i should buy? im not too much into performance as i promised my parents i wouldnt race. but if it comes down to it, ill kill a ricer or something. i think the mustang is fast enough. so im going for styling. right now all i have is louvers and dual navy blue racing stripes with pin stripes around that only go to the end of the trunk to the front of the hood(they dont go all the way down ). everything else is stock.


so what do you guys think?

18" Polished Bullits would look nice.

ya i love the polished bullits and that would leave me with about $1000-800 to spare. I never knew if polished chrome wheels look good on white cars though. and also do blacked out tail lights and a blacked out light panel look good on white?

Go to cervini's web site. I am sure you will find plenty. Side pipes, chin spoiler, duct tail spoiler, hood.
Or go with new rims tires.

My vote would be for an Xcal 2 SCT from brenspeed with a 93 octane config for $382. shipped. It makes a huge difference in performance (mostly drivability) even without modifying the air cleaner assembly. Save the remaining money for your insurance payments.
