8" Fixed Black Ford Mustang Antenna (1979-2009) at AmericanMuscle
^looks great when installed.

Cold Air Intake would be nice and look good under the hood. Some new Headlights and taillights maybe?

Do not use eBay for lights!!! I bought some angel eye halos for my 2000 and they were horrible quality, i returned them for a full refund but the whole process took like 2 months and it did some damage to my car. I needed a new headlight switch and dimmer relay. I have heard of alot of people with bad experience with ebay lights. i would spend the extra money for american muscle ones. if they crap out or anything the have amazing customer service and will get you new ones ASAP. But its really up to you

just my

CAI would be the easiest mod under the hood, look into the windstar intake swap. VAP Auto - Specializing in 3.8L Mustang Performance makes a kit, its a little bit harder to install but is has about a 10rwhp gain and impressive torque gains aswell.
