Default RE: really confused.. Performance Appearance argh

my stang has alot of stuff in looks to it as of right now...

ive got....

reverse glow gauges
chrome a/c *****
"Mustang" door sills
Mach 1 chin spoiler
Roll Bar (safety also)
new shifter **** that i dont like much
builit trim around the shifter
aluminum pedals
window tint
tag bracket....

but all that stuff the owners before me had done to it. im gonna get alittle more for looks but alot more for performance. i really want a mach 1 grille delete for my stang. its all up to you, do you want it to look good, or do you want it to be very fast. i like both. so im gonna get alittle of both done but more performance stuff since its already got alot of stuff for looks kinda.

Well since everyone in the world has a mustang I had to do the appearance stuff first(chin spoiler, grill delete, tint, interior stuff, lowering springs, etc) Secondly, I spend a lot of my time listening to music so I added a sound system. Then after that was all said and done, I got into the performance parts stage which I am still in and its very addicting.

the only reason i got window tint is because i live in Miami, and geebus the sun gets my leather damn warm.. but the mach 1 grill and lip i just wanted to look nice[8D]. but first mod was the slp cat- back...had to get the mustang sound in there...ive only had my car for 1 1/2 months..i work fast...but i would go more for performance..i had a stang with a body kit and all that before my present one..it really wasnt worth it be all show and little go, and it was a bitch to go over speed bumps in a slammed 02 mustang with 18's and a black widow cobra body kit, scrapped my exhaust my bumper cost money to repai..butthen again ....as stated before..IT IS infact YOUR MONEY>

What in the world is the deal with the grill delete? My car came with it, so i didnt even worry about it. Right now its sitting in a box with my other stock crap ive replaced. I bought a chrome billet grill off ebay. I love the chrome, its my favorite color.

i didn't need to worry about many appearence mods besides SS inserts, otherwise just performance.

Many performance Mods have Aesthetic benefits. Choose these over nonfunctioning looks.
Looks: Chin spoiler or front splitter help deflect air at high speeds, lowering the car has handling benefits, Vented hood lets hot air out, Cat Back exhaust usually has nicer tips, Some wings are functional
Sound: Mid pipe, headers
Underhood looks: CAI, polished TB\Plenum....
