What Mods should I do first?
Okay so I have got some extra money finally after owning my mustang for about two months. I have a 2012 HP white 5.0 Brembo Package.
So far I have,
Tint filmed tails, fogs, and f&r marker lights.
Gloss Black 5.0 Badges
Pypes pipe bomb axle back exhaust.
MGW Shifter (already paid, just waiting for it to finish production and show up)
My List of mods wanted now are:
JLT/Steeda CAI and Bama tune
X/H Pipe
CS front valence with Boss splitter
Switchbacks for turn signals, and LED reverse lights.
Lowering springs with struts and supporting suspension mods
I cannot decide what would be a better package to last me until early spring. Lets get some input on what will keep me happy longest.

I would keep it cosmetic until you are comfortable with a warranty delete.

Yea im coming from a Subaru where i put almost 8k into performance mods.. then blew the motor, went back to stock, and here I am today. I figured a CAI and BAMA tune that has the motor guarantee should be safe enough til i void it.

Stormtrooper,
Send me a PM with your budget and we can see what kind of package deal we can put together to provide you power and suspension.
We have a great track record with our CAI/Tune. We have had 0 engine failures/warranty denials when it has been installed on a consumers car.
Your in great hands with Steeda if you choose to our direction with a tune/CAI.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Best Regards,
TJ

Pulled the trigger..
GT/CS front bumper with boss splitter.. No fogs though, the lower fogs didnt do anything for me.
LED switchbacks, and reverse bulbs.
Spring time tax return time will be cai/tune along with springs/suspension
: ) thanks to AMDanBailer for walking me through everything, and TJ@STEEDA we will be talking after winter about the above.

Too bad. A tune is, by far, the most rewarding modification you can perform to these cars. When you are ready, skip Bama and give Shaun from AED a call or an e-mail and go with the best.

Then if you add the LS brake cooling kit later, you can reuse your original "holy" fog light plates.
