Default More aggressive

Hey guys I recently just purchased my 1st SVT Cobra (Terminator) and I was wondering what I can do to make it look more aggressive. It has hids and stealth FR500 staggered wheels and H&R lowering springs but IMO it doesn't look mean enough. What would you recommend on doing to get it to look just mean? It sounds mean, but I think it could really look like on a mission.
Thanks

I think you car looks great....but if you want a more aggressive look you should start looking at changing things like your hood to something like a cowl...also, not sure if it's still there or not, but if you don't have to run a plate up front on your car, I'd remove that big black tag holder...

What color is that? Is that the Ford equivalent of Sunset Orange Metallic? I like it! Didn't know Cobras were offered in that color, it's very sweet.

Totally agree, gotta get rid of the lame front plate mount if possible. I'd say that Cobras, and Terminators in particular, don't tend to get visually modded as much as other Mustang models. I haven't really seen a lot done out there beyond the wheels. If the COBRA on the rear bumper isn't painted or inset, I'd suggest doing that too. That's about all I can think of...

Schmalgar it's actually Redfire it was the way the lights were. I live in Ohio so we have to run a from lisence plate unfortunately. I've been thinking about getting the removable frame they make I think it's like $40 and is held on by wingnuts. I know there was something about it on the eBay deals on here. 05 Mustang I don't know why but I'm not a fan of the cowl hoods. I know Boss has some goods out that look good on out style of cars I'm just worried it won't clear the s/c

Oh also the COBRA on the bumper is blacked out just like the side emblems and front grill emblem.

Aha, gotcha. Yeah I didn't think they had a metallic orange, but it didn't look red to me either. But I seem to have old-man eyes lately so I wasn't sure!

Yeah, s/c clearance is the big problem of course, that's why you don't see a lot of hood options for these. I'm with you, generally not a fan of cowls either...

It's not your eyes I saw the same thing in the pictures and I liked the same color that was actually one of the pics that were on Craigslist before I bought the car.
