I fully support the grille idea cause I'm looking to do the same thing on mine.
American Muscle used to have these in black chrome(like up until like two days ago or something...)

EDIT: I found the black chrome ones...they changed the picture heh.

Anyways, I like these ones cause they go right to the edge(what I think they should do), and come with the bulbs and wiring harness so with kits like the street scene kit, if yours isn't a pony package, (just like mine) you have to buy the harness separately.
The only thing that I've read on this one is that you really do have to seal the foglights with silicone before you install them or else they'll get moisture inside.
I got the BBK intake(no tune yet) and I definitely love it. I don't FEEL any real power difference(probably because of a lack of a tune) but it definitely makes the engine bay prettier.
May i also suggest a hood strut kit.
Check out the Roush louvres. I was a bit hesitant on them but when I went into the show room to check out the roush spoiler(on a 427R) I feel in love with the louvres as well

Thanks so much for all the input!
Especially the throttle body thing, you guys just saved me $300!
Leather seats- how much will that run me? It sounds nice, but expensive.
I essentially have around 2k to spend in the next few months, so I'd deff like to get the most bang for the buck.
Quarter louvres- yeah, I was talking about the remove glass variety on American Muscle. I'm not a huge fan of the clamp on ones, I like that these sit flush; that said, I have no idea how to install, or how much it would cost me to get it done.
Anyone point me to a link of the hinged rear louvres? Didn't see any on Ameircan Muscle, but that sounds like a good idea..

Here are some ideas you may like:
Get a GT front appearance package from Newtakeoff.com $380
-includes bumper and grille with fogs
Get GT rear bumper $150
Get true dual exhaust ~$300 at local shop
-get GT manual takeoff mufflers ~$30
Get a cold air intake and tune
-I got mine with tuner and tunes for $210 by watching this forum. Makes a world of difference on my car
TB are a waste of money.
If your mileage is around 30k and you havent, change the fuel filter, you will see your performance come back.
Also, if you don't like your side stripe that says Mustang, you can remove it with a hair dryer.

It's all a matter of opinion anyway.

Whatever you do, do not get the plastic kind. Over time they do deteriorate and fade. I had the hinged aluminium ones on my '82 GT that I absolutely loved! I do plan to put some on my current Mustang in the future.
