Default Non performance mods

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.

Since I'm in NJ I can only tint the back windows and rear....but since I have some money and not a lot this was my list I was thinking about:

SS Inserts
Chin Spoiler
Window tint

Think that's a good start for now?

I think the car looks pretty awsome already but I'd move the wing back like jonbeast said (free mod) and definetly lower it, I think it would look so much better lowered, shorty antenna again thats cheap. I dont know how your car would look with 2 racing strips down it, two white ones mights look really good like the classic cobras

Short throw shifter if it's a 5 speed. It is kind of a performance mod, but it will make you enjoy your ride a little more.

I would, but it's an auto

And as for racing stripes would white or silver look better? Anyone have pics of wither on an 00 atlantic blue gt?

tough question, i think both would look good, just whatever you do id say keep that color throughout the car, suck as same color inserts, maybe a "Mustang" decal across the window or something, just keep everything the same color, nothing looks worse then a bunch of mismatched colors on a car

do grill delete and chin spoiler and call it quits for the apperance mods just for a little while. you could also get a programmer in leu to the short throw shifter, it will really firm up your shifts and make it more fun to drive
