I'm thinkin about gettin a spoiler, grill, and maybe a new exhaust. I think I'm going to buy the parts on the internet and take them to the ford dealership to install them. Is that the best way to do it? Or should I buy them from Ford or what?

You can install them yourself! all but the exhaust that is. (unless your mechaniclly inclined) It would be best to take it to an exhaust shop for a new dual set up. Ford does have a Ford racing v6 exhaust which most people who get love but there are some cheaper alternatives at local shops. Most people learn how to replace parts like the grill and spoiler from other members on the forum.

Buy them from various places and put them on yourself or use a reputable local shop (or better yet, some friends!) to install them.

Good advise from above. As far as the grill goes... correct me if I'm wrong, but I think if you have a V6 front bumper you need to stick with a V6 grill. From what I've heard the GT grills won't fit right on the v6 bumpers.
