Default Just Bought a new 2008

Hey just bought a new 2008 Mustang 4.0
Was thinking about some upgrades for it but I an a little tight on the $
What do you guys think is the best bang for your buck in terms of looks as well as style and performance.
I'm looking at:

Duel exhaust system
Computer Tuner
Cold Air Intake
GT style front grill

If you guys have any thoughts or recommendations it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
-Bryan

Thanks for the input guys. I was also leaning toward the CAI and tune as first purchase. Sounds like it will give the car a nice little boost.

You might get better advice in the 4.0 Tech Section.
