My mods even though cosmentic only here they are
CDC classic chin spoiler- I feel like i put a new front fascia and it looks great. I know on forums everyone and their mom has this but in the street i have yet to see a cdc'd mustang.
Cervinis Ducktail- NO more high beams at night!!! It looks aggresive and goes with the chin spoiler, i think.
Tint on all light- IMO makes it look badass
Pony caps-Small mod that made me happy+makes the bullits look better
Painted mirrors-If you havent, DO IT NOW. Ties in all exterior mods nicely.

in my opinoin the worst mod out there is the udp, unless you can install them yourself. We are talking what maybe on a cold day 20 additional HP for several hundred $$.

I will take 20 hp for a couple hundered dollars everyday of the week. Unfortunately UDP's only give you 5 to 7. Best engine mod, CIA and tune, best drivetrain mod, 4.10's, best suspension mod, springs/dampers and tires.

Good
+1 CAI (C&L Street) with Bama tune
Shorty Antenae, looks much better than stock

Mediocre

Pypes axle back, good for the price, but load drone between 1500-2000 rpms. When budget allows I will swap them out.

How much roughly would it cost me to get 4.10 gears FROM the dealership and have them install?
I know ordering somewhere else is a little cheaper but my uncle owns a dealership and he is installing them.
I wanna buy from him and right now I'm too lazy to look up the number and call hahahaha!

Feel free to flame on me for being so lazy.
I was up all night and got 0 sleep and now I am zombie-fied at work.

Gears themselves are pretty cheap and can be had for about 180-200 bucks. Installaion can run you anywhere from 300-400 depends on the shop Make sure the installer knows gears.

Best mod Saleen SC, and a custom tune!
Oh - I don't know about that. I'd put my KB car against a Saleen car any day of the week...

Gears+install will be 600-700, if they charge you less i would almost find another place that takes more time to install them! And that is for FRPP gears not motives BTW
