What to do now??

Ok so I bought a 06 Mustang GT with a 5 Speed. I had my subs installed. I tinted the the windows to limo black. I also put straight pipes (with cats), a BBK 62mm Throttle body, Airaid Race CAI and a custom tune from my local hot rod shop. And WOW!! Completely different car. Car gets down even harder in the bottom and and pulls way harder through all the gears. So my main question I'm trying to get to is.. WHAT DO I DO NEXT!! Any other little mods that won't break the bank but will also show a little bit more?? Any help I would appreciate!

Lowering it. It could break the bank, but you could also do springs only. That's about $200. Why are there no pics in this thread??!!

Also, depending on color - change the parking lights to clear or tinted and get rid of the ambers. (under $40 I think)
Paint the calipers. (under$20)
Do some sort of stripe if you want. ($20-$75?)
Gt500 wing on eBay from spoiler store (painted $100)
Change the grille ($100-$200)
Painted side scoops from mr body kit (little over $100)
Any interior dress ups and anything you want to do with plastidip too. There's lots of great cheaper mods. Most of those I've done. Might as well add a pic for imagination...

If you had subs and a new HU installed I'd reccommend repalcing the speakers as well, makes a big difference in the sound. I also found my stock ones didnt hold up too well after the new HU was in lol
