My 2005 mustang gt

What do you guys think so far, I'm trying to figure out what to do next. I'm thinking of side louvers or side bumpouts but not sure which ones. Maybe even something for the front I'm looking towards the cervini type 3 front chin. Reaching out for some opinions......

Firstly, the car looks great! I would, however, first look to add something to the front to balance that ducktail spoiler, it makes the back end look a bit "heavy."

As for louvers, I'm a big fan of the SHR window replacement louvers. I've never been very interested in scoops.

Car looks nice. Id add the CDC aggressive chin spoiler and gt/cs side scoops. How hard is it to see at night with the tinted headlights are you running stock bulbs or h.i.ds?

+1 on this. That definitely needs something bolder up front to balance the dramatic ducktail.

I like the CDC aggressive chin but im afraid of messing it up being that my car is lowered. I was thinking the cervini type 3 front lip and just getting an aggressive hood would balance it out. As for my blacked out lights at night I mostly just use my fogs and where it is blacked out I have the halo eyes, it looks pretty cool.

I'm not a big fan of black rims BUT I think your rims would look sickkk if you got a red pin stripe around the rim of the rim. I think it would make em stand out! And i agree with the other guys and a front chin spoiler would look good. I'm thinking a two tone spoiler like the Cail special. Nice ride!

The more I look at it, I think it would look tuff with the bullet grill (no fogs).

Definitely louvers. Here's a shot of the SHRs on my TR if it helps you picture them on yours.

You should consider some of the side mirror covers in red. They just get the top half of the mirror.

Get rid of the fishing pole! You can DIY for free or get a nice 14" Billet one.

You might also want to try some black reverse c stripes on the sides to set things off a bit.

could try photchopping the rockers/lower bumper trim line in semigloss black, see what you think... I think that red stripe around the wheel lip mentioned above might be kinda neat too, would have to see it...
