Hey guys what're some nonperformane mods that I'm forgetting? I really want to add some flavor to my car (nothing obnoxious). I got it a couple months ago, I'm 17, it's my DD. I'm not really doing anything performance wise....I got the slp lm1 catback so I wanted to some appearance/fun mods now.

Here's what it looks like now https://mustangforums.com/m_1733654/tm.htm

The stuff I'm talking about is like bumper inserts, lowering, racing stripes, sound system, etc. What are some other things that I could get that would make me enjoy the car more (not that I don't already)?

So basically can yuo guys recommend some stuff and what you'd think I'd really like/match my car?

Thanks, I know most people are moer into performance but everyone has different tastes.
I thought you said you didnt want anything obnoxious?!?! SLP LM1's? Pretty obnoxious to me! Anyways, just dont get euro lights, lambo doors, or anything ricy and you should be fine.

If you're thinkin about racing stripes... just look at my sig. I decided not to get the big ones cuz I thought they were a lil bulky... but to each their own I guess. Some people on here don't like them on mine but I think they stand out and go with the black and silver theme of my car. I got them a while back cuz I really didn't know anything about performance mods and I just knew that was a safe thing for me to get. Now that I have picked up some pointers from alot of guys on here and from some cobra owners around my area, I feel more comfortable about doing that now. Just go with what your comfortable with. Bumper inserts to me are nice... like one said, just match the colors up. Window tint is good, lowering is a good start too. Good luck with your choices and post pics when you make some progress

I have not seen louvers on cars since the 80's. Did not know you could even still get them.

yeah i love it cuz everyones like "wtf are those?" most people either love em or hate em. i love the retro aspect of em

plus they still work for their original purpose... they keep my car cool during the day. the sun cant heat up the back part of the car

One of my favorite non-performance mods on my car are my signal mirrors. Nobody has them, they're super easy to install, look near stock when youre not signaling, and get a lot of attention from mustang guys. My 2 cents.
