(2) a hood with functional scoop for a cai or heat extractors.
(3) visors with the homelink garage door openers builtin.
(4) a front fascia with air ducts to cool the brakes (my brakes don't overheat but i like the idea anyways)
(5) trunk organizers (netting or something)
(6) a short replacement antenna that can be used for xm or sirius also. (IOW a dual band antenna, satellite band from the antenna base and am/fm from the antenna mast)
(7) a tpms delete kit.
(8) a disguised shift light that goes with the interior of the car and doesn't look like a jegs or summit addon (while the car is off, it periodically flashes to look like an anti-theft device, while the car is running it functions as a shift light). btw, does anyone make a shift light that can also use fm modulation to play a chime through an fm channel (i.e 88.1, 88.5 mhz) when its time to shift? That way you could tune to that channel when you wanted to hear the shift light.
dont know if you have seen it or not, but ford makes a trunk organizer for our cars. i plan on getting one

I agree 100% about the Hurst shifter handle. And maybe even a little angle in it instead of being straight.

The Roush front fascia would be a great option for the brake cooling. Use the side vents and then cut a hole in your wheel well liner and run a tube back to the brakes.

That's a GREAT idea for the dual antenna since the base is just as big as the new satellite radio antenna Ford puts on the trunk.

Also like the shift light idea. (have you though about rigging something up using one of the current shift lights, but use a small buzzer in place of the light?

UPDATED NEWS::

Per 2 Requests -

A Hood Scoop has been designed and is at the painter as we speak. As soon as it gets back from the painter he will send me pics of it.

REAR TAILIGHT BEZEL's in BLACK have been made. They come in a plastic black material but ARE PAINTABLE, if the customer chooses to paint it a different color.

so far so good, but if anyone else has any ideas, shoot them this way.....

How about the front chrome grill surround ring and the rear trunk/light chrome surround ring from the Parnelli Jones Mustang.

Oh, and even the rear blank out panel with the integrated license plate holder to replace the rear badge. And maybe a piece to fill in the place where the license used to be on the bumper.

I vote for open style headlights, black crome ac vent rings, and new rear fascia.
