Question What else is there to buy?

Hey everyone, I was wondering what else I could buy for my 2005 v6 Premium Mustang. I have 12" white racing stripes, GT style black mesh grill with fog lights, 5-pannel Window louvers, set of 18" chrome bullitt staggered wheels, and a Pypes Violator axel-back system. That would about do it, I don't know what else might look good, if anyone has any suggestions please let me know and I will contemplate them!

Plenty of things you can do. I'm guessing you want "show" mods rather than "go".

One mod that everyone recommends is lowering the car. Gets rid of the 4x4 look and makes the car handle so much better.

If you don't want to do that try looking at:

Rear bumper? Plenty of other options besides the bland stock V6 one.
Front facisa? Again, the stock one is too plain for me. Even a GT take-off is an upgrade.
Chin Spoiler? In case you don't want to spend too much money.
New Hood/Hood Scoop?
New spoiler?

Go on AmericanMuscle and decide what you like and start buying.

A cold air intake (CAI) looks really good under the hood. A stand alone CAI only adds minimal performance gain, however if you add a SCT hand held tuner with custom tunes, this will increase your HP! The estimated gains on a V6 is between 15-20 HP. Once you upload the custom tune it will feel like a totally different car.
American Muscle, Brenspeed and VMP are very reputable companies that offer CAI/tune combo's!

an xcharger... oh yeah. Do you have dual exhaust yet?, GT (or GT/CS) rear bumper for the dual exhaust. There are a lot of trim pieces you can put inside your car and engine bay. Do the shorty antenna mod, it's almost free.

Street Lethal Performance is a great shop as well. I am good friends with the owner and he's always taken care of me.

Also, I have a GT rear bumper you could purchase if you're interested in a dual exhaust system.
