The same basic rules apply to special editions that apply to all other models.

Basically no wheels bigger than 18". No Big Bling pretty much anywhere. Stay away from almost any body kit. You know... the basics.

No spoilers on the Bullitt... ever.

And lastly, NEVER EVER EVER TINT/SMOKE 1999-2001 COBRA TAIL LIGHTS!!! EVER... EVER!! That is my only request.

Really? I expected you'd know that being a veteran around here. They have the amber corners.

I've seen them sell for $500+ a pair.

That's pretty much the way I feel about it too.

i dunno. I hate the 99-01 cobra front bumper cover/foglights. They look terrible on your car. Just because I feel sorry for you, I'll trade you my GT's front cover/foglights. This is entirely out of selfless appreactiation of your car that i'd do this. I'll dispose off the 99-01 front end for you free of charge

cuz im just that nice...

i might actually go from black to highland green when I re-do my 100,000 mile chipped/scratched paint

thats what im thinking....

swapping hoods isn't a bad idea either. its when you get into the body kits that the mustang faithful usually bitch and whine at you.
