Default Opinions Welcome

So I am pretty much done with the exterior of my car but there are still a few more things I would possibly like to do and would like peoples opinions. I need to redo the tint on my windows and am either going to go with 15 or 20% all the way around. I just bought some HID's 5000k 55watt headlights. Was thinking about going 03/04 Cobra side skirts and putting on a 99-00 Saleen S281 Wing. Additionally, at some point I am wanting to add a Mach 1 Chin spoiler to my 99/01 Cobra bumper. I am not wanting to go 03/04 Mirrors primarily because my car is already black and its not noticeable enough for the cost. Any suggestions on other stuff to do or opinions on if I should add the pieces I am thinking about adding?

I think all of those sound like great ideas. I would do the 20s all around instead of the 15s on the tint. check out toulsey ford for the side skirts. you can buy them pre-painted for $170 a peice IIRC.

One I've wanted to play with, just never gotten around to taking them off, are the side vents. Does anyone make any billet ones?

like an insert or a total delete? both would look questionable IMO.

btw...kerns, you ever think about a 10.5 wheel out back?

Daily. Only reason my rims are not 10.5 out back are because I got my rims and tires for 200$. Couldn't really pass up the deal. I would love to trade my 18x9's for someones 17x10.5's if I had the chance.

^same position you are in my friend (wheel wise). I think all those cosmetic ideas sound great! Def will make the car stand out from any other black mustang (if the blower doesn't make it stand out enough haha)

Either an insert or replacement. A Billet piece with the holes actually in it. I know they don't go anywhere, but I think it would look better than a fake honey comb thing.

A rear window louvre would look sweet, IMO.

I would add cowl hood to that list. I would also ditch the fr500's and get either 18" saleens or 03/04 cobra wheels.
