New to me '06 Mustang GT

Love the ride and power.

I've started de-crapifying is by removing the side louvers, silver brake trim and headlight splitters.

I have always thought that there is a fine line between where a car looks awesome and overdone. Make it yours, you are the only one that you need to please. Nice looking car. Post updates as you go!

I don't exactly love the hood but it will do for now. Honestly I'd gladly trade it for a stock hood.

Pretty much this, but I'd lose the headlight splitters and lower it. I like wingless or maybe go with a GT500 spoiler. Just drive it and have fun

I do like the look of the GT500 spoiler.

Anyone know how much it would cost to get a new unpainted hood painted?

Back in 2011 I was quoted $700, but I can't remember if that included blending the fenders or not. But as always, depending on your area and the shop, your mileage may very
