The grille from the Shelby GT would look good on your car, IMO.
Or possibly the 9 Bar Roush grille.
MadStang has the hidden fog lights behind the billet grille. It looks good.

Don't buy the retro from AM. (I love AM, but its not a top quality product.)

Don't change the paint - lower the car.

Right... but unmarked C-style stripes make it need for speedy? Not seeing your train of logic here.

Reaper, do you want a blackout look? Keep in mind when tinting the headlights and fogs, your light output will be diminished. I'm still toying with the idea of HIDs just so I can see better at night.

That is actually a really good point that I didnt even consider. I wont black out my lights all the way, I was thinking just a smoked look. And you guys are right, after looking over my car today I have decided that I am going to keep my current charcoal stripes for a while. I worry that if I go back to matte my car will just look like a plain black stang in most lighting conditions.

But to switch things up a bit, I have been checking out some blackout panels : )
