Personal preference really - if you like it - go for it. For me personally,Im not a big fan of words/lettering on Mustangs (aside from the likes of "Rousch," "Saleen," "Steeda," etc.).
But if you like it, that is all that counts!

May I suggest something a bit more subtle and traditional... replace the "Custom" faux gas tank cover you have on the rear with a traditional Mustang emblem cover. The one with the red/white/blue stripe and the Pony. While it doesn't spell out the word Mustang it definately says "Mustang" in a manner that everyone in the world recognizes....

Dont do it.. chrome.. decal .. no need to tell everyone the obvious. If they cant tell its a Mustang well maybe it isnt that normal to see 20 Mustangs on the way to the grocery store in the Netherlands. Do you ever have anyone ask what kind of car it is?

In your case here, it's a nice touch (can't beat the 69/70 look).
But on Ralphy's being busy and all, I'll pass.
The suggestion on the 3rd brake light is a good one.
Oh, and Europeans know more about the Classic Mustangs than the modern ones...

Do what you want...follow your path...
Do what you want, it's your car. I put retro usa chrome bumpers on my Bullitt and many howled......BUT when I had my car at cars and coffee most folks were surprised how good they looked in person. Also did some chrome work around grille ala '68 movie car.
I was shooting for a more '68 look. The car has quarter window louvres now also.
I like what I like and the hell with others opinion.
Oh, I'm 68 so I really am insulated against opinions of others.
