Default New Mod's needed...any suggestions?

just sold one of my rifles, figured i would use the cash to add to my Mustang. I have 2k to pick up some mods, what do you suggest? For sure, im adding lowering springs...after that what else? I was thinking a CDC shaker for looks, but realize thats about all it is. CDC chin? Help. if you have pics of suggestions, then post. It's an 06GT Windveil Blue.

What do you want the car to do ? Go faster? Sound louder? Handle better?

Lowering kit and some rear gears would probably give you the most bang for your buck.

Yeah definitely. But that still gives me plenty of money to play with.

Appearance wise it's all taste so I can't help you there.

But I would probably do the full bolt on set up. Intake, tuner, full exhaust system. Also get gears, springs as you mentioned. And I would personally try to tighten up the handling a little bit.

That all would probably cost 2-3k, but you're not very far off, and with all those mods you will definitely feel a difference.

Stripes(got mine for $49 on Ebay, pre-cut for 2005-2009 GT), rims & tires(anywhere from $1000-1500), lowering springs($219 & up) & chin spoiler($200-300 unpainted). Just my 2 cents............

Sell another rifle and get a blower. Then race the guy you sold the gun to and win it back!
