Default 05 GT Where to go on this car

We gave our 17 year old Son our 2005 Mustang about 8 months ago. He has had the car for 8 months and has taken very good car of the car. He has shown a lot of maturity in his driving (no tickets and no dents so far "knock on wood"). I had already done quite a few mods to the car and being the car nut I am I have continued to do a more mods for him. So far we are happy with what we have done, but the back of the car just needs something. Anyone have any suggestions on what we could do on this and/or any other ideas on the next steps? We are having a lot of fun with this.

So far..........
Hurst Shifter, Cold air intake, DBA Cross drilled rotors, Hawk Ceramic pads, Neeper 20" Chrome rims, Nitto Extreme tires, Classic Design Concepts spolier, painted mirrors, CDC C-Piller scoops, Sequential Taillights Kit, Pioneer AVIC-F90BT DVD NAV, Speaker upgrade 2 10" subs, Corsa Pro-Series exhaust w/4.0" Tips - on order, Corsa X-pipe - on order













Pre mods to brakes, spolier and mirrors.

Car looks great. If you want to add something to the back, have you looked at those blackout panels?I did a REAL quick chop of what it would look like.

Yeah this car would look great with the the SHR honeycomb blackout panel. Here is a pic on a similar car:
Man i wish my parents were sponsoring my mods lol. Good choice on quarter window louvers by the way, i don't see them very much and i just installed mine yesterday and love them.

Thanks to all for the ideas. I kinda like the black out panal and think the flat black would look the best. I also think we need some sort of a emblem on the right third of the spolier maybe like the one below. I would rather have a solid plain chrome pony but I can not find one. I am not good at image editiing so you will have to imagine this. As for the lowering kits which kit would be the best kit that would not take away from the handling and ride of the car?

I like the clean look and want to do things that work with this.




Again thanks for the replies this is a lot of help!
