Chin spoiler would look nice or some rear quarter window louvers.

I know ive beat this one to death, but here goes.

To me, the stock hood on the S197 is too... plain. Thats why a Cervinis type iv hood was my first mod. The first thing I would do to that car is either 1) A shaker setup (What I would personally do and in retrospect wish I did) or 2) an aftermarket hood.

I am also gonna break with things a little bit. I personally like the rocker stripes. I would look at getting the stripes you have now finished to the bottom of the bumper, and maybe look at some painted side skirts. With the black on white, I think the Pony Package front grille looks fantastic, and I would add the 3dcarbon bumper extension instead of an air dam. As far as wheels go, some bigger bullies maybe, but I like the classic Bully look. Im also not a big fan of window louvers, but thats all personal.

My opinion, in short: Your car has a GREAT classic look to it now, I would choose mods that accentuate and preserve that look. But then again, that's just me if I had your car.

In the long term hopefully including FI department, the idea of a shaker fed centrifugal supercharger system has me absolutely horny right now...

Delete rocker stripes. Add smoked corners, a gt500 rear spoiler, front splitter and quarter window covers. It would make a huge difference.

TINT THE WINDOWS! It seriously makes a difference and it's fairly cheap. I have a white stang, I was hesitant to even get it because it was hard picturing what it would look like in my head. I got the windows tinted and BOOM. Sexy. Now as far as aftermarket stuff, I wouldn't go blackout like someone mentioned above, i like your classic look. But, delete the rocker stripe. IF you want, add a different spoiler, but I think the current one is just fine. Definitely get a chin spoiler (Different name for it? Idk.) it'll add that really aggressive look. I'm not a huge fan of tinting the side markers and such, but tint the front ones a little. I think they're ginormous on the 05-09's. Regardless, do subtle changes Show us what you do after you're done!!

[QUOTE=bigD1515;7889787] Now as far as aftermarket stuff, I wouldn't go blackout like someone mentioned aboveQUOTE]

I would go for the blackout. Tint the windows($150). Remove rocker stripes(free). Black louvers($200). Smoked side markers($30), headlights($20 for tint or nighshade), and turn signals($40). Plastidip wheels and badges($20). Remove stripes on hood, roof, and trunk(free).If you really need/want stripes run matte black supersnake stripes front to back, all the way bumper to bumper($150). You would still have the PP grill that would pop from all the black. For For under $700 you would have a new ride.
