Nice Car...How about getting rid of the trying to reach a radio station on Mars stock antenna LOL..That's the first mod every 05-09 Mustang owner should do.

American Muscle's pre-painted window louvers are $200. I had great luck with them.

Try those SHR flushmount 1/4 window louvers. As soon as I can I will grab some for myself.

i probably should've updated the pics of my car...here's what it looks like as of now...





mods include shorty antenna, redline hood struts, center fog grille, SHR honeycomb rear blackout panel, 20% tint all around, Pypes pypebomb axleback exhaust and a cdc classic chin spoiler


also, the only reason the spending limit is $200 is b/c it's a gift for my bday from my gf and rather than surprise me with something for the car she opted to give me a limit and options

as of right now i'm saving for kooks LT headers and xpipe by spring and rims will be by fall of next year


thanks for all the feedback guys, i was thinking springs but with everyone suggesting getting shocks at the same time i'm pushing towards either a GT500 spoiler or ducktail spoiler...still undecided

With $200 I would get a GT500 spoiler ($100 +/-) and painted mirror covers ($70 +/-).

I'd go performance before any further cosmetic mods, but with only $200, I was just gonna mention the painted mirror covers. OR save it for a tuner/CAI. I think she could appreciate that
