I may be biased, but # 3 looks best to me! I love the look of the integrated CS/SGT spoiler.

I like the GT500 front end. Thats the front end that I thought all Mustangs should have came with looking closer to the concept car. I am also suprised how good it looks with the regular hood as opposed to the GT500 style.

However if price is an obsticle, I'd go for a Bullitt grille in the GT fascia.

I like #3. I think I'm one of the few who isn't smitten by the GT500 fascia. It looks okay, but I don't like it nearly as much as most seem to.

I personally love the look of the GT500 front end. To me it's the most aggressive, but you can't go wrong with any of them.

It's a tough call, but since #3 is a picture of my car, I've gotta go with 3

Yup, if you have the money, my vote is for the #1 route with the Venom Hood.

Changing the hood may be another option. It can also add a more aggressive look without changing everything.

No love for the Steeda stuff? I think it's pretty aggressive looking, and won't break the bank quite like the GT500 conversion will...

I vote #3 as well. I like the GT500 front end, but personally would never spend the thousands of dollars needed to convert to it.

IMO, the Venom hood only looks good with the GT500 bumper. The reason I like the GT500 bumper as much as I do is because it's very different than the GT one. I also love the way the lights are designed as well.

I'll be holding off on any major mods anyway. I want to see what Ford's doing with the 2010 reset. If the exterior looks good enough, and it has more comfort features, along with a 400hp 5.0, I'll be selling my 07 and buying a 2010...
