Hello all,
Just wondering what you, as a whole, thought were the top 10 exterior modifications for the 05+ Mustangs.
(I don't mean specific brand/manufacturer, but more a specific part.) Any input would be much appreciated. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumb.gif[/img] Thanks!

I agree with the above except number 5 would be sequential taillights for me.

Wheels, Springs, Exhaust, & Tint seem to be the most abuntant mods. I'm sure there's others but those are probably the most common.

I aint done squat yet to mine, but did get a magnetic blackout from ebay to see how it would look- I like it, will keep till this summer - then semigloss black paint along with rockers/wing, maybe add a chin [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]

My want list of 'best looking' add ons:
semigloss black wing/lower bumper trim line/rocker panel covers
semigloss powdercoated expanded metal(stainless) grille
Shaker hood scoop(possibly cougar eliminator in semigloss blk) on a Fang hood, with semigloss
hood/pinstripe like 69 mach.
a NICE set of rear slats more like 69/70
69 wing?(just a maybe...stock too hard to clean/wax under)
semigloss chin spoiler
dual rear power antennas?
deeper torq-thrust looking wheels with 275 rears or so
painted calipers(dunno why...but RED on any color car still looks good to me)
white lettered tires(american name) - oops, forgot they dont make those (hint-hint)
chrome or red(to match brakes) slapper bars- if they can be added to a three link without binding on bumps.
2-1/2" slash cut, rolled edge polished tips ( bigger just looks wrong to me...)
weld/paint /add 69 emblems over rear quarter glass.
