Same here, I just bought a FRPP strut tower brace. My next mod will be a C&L Street/Racer intake with X3 from Bama, followed by a 3.73 gear and FRPP stingers. Oh and billet shelby style hood pins without the shelby logo.

You need a speedshop of you can't do your own installs....

I've learned to the hard way.

Only regret is maybe waiting a bit and buying a Bullitt or GT500 from the start. I just could not justify the price over an almost new GT though.

I'm happy with all of my mods:
- FRPP racing springs
- Smoked corner front turn signals
- Bullitt grill
- Agent 47 mirrors
- Honeycomb rear panel
- Custom rear medallion
- CAI + SCT2 + Bama tunes
- Vinyl (yes I am happy with the vinyl) stripes.
- Pypes mid muffler system
- Blue lighted "Mustang" sill plates


I need to clarify one thing. I like my vinyl stripes. I see so many people her explaining their dislike of them. I like them because I can change my mind, and because I have $1500 more than if I would have done painted stripes.

I almost got a bullit but at the time the dealerships in my area only had Black on black. In AZ, Bleh. Now of course (6 months later) all I see is green....

Sometimes I regret the Pro-Kit, only because of the condition of the roads around here but, then I see how sexy the Stang sits and forget about it LOL that would be it tho.

Speaking of the eibach springs....I noticed that the car looks like it needs to be lowered only while parked. When I watch my wife drive away....I think it sits just fine. Therefore, I'm holding off on that mod.
