What Visual Mod Should I do?


I've been looking to buy something visual for my Mustang, but can't figure out what I want.

I'm thinking about:
Sequential Tail Light Kit ($200/ plug in and slower)

Quarter Window Scoops ($150 + painting)

Chin Spoiler ($75) {also, does the chin spoiler on stock height hit curbs or parking spots?}

Black Billet Grille ($105 for top and bottom) {maybe put some sort of emblem on it}

What do you think? It's a silver 2001 V6 with black bumper inserts and silver windshield decal, btw.

Def need chin spoiler, get it lowered, and sequentials are cool

Even with stock wheels, those mods would be okay

A chin spoiler would probably make the most difference but I really love my sequential signals

Do chin spoiler, and the sequentials. Other two are gay.

Chin Spoiler and the Sequential Tail Lights, figured that's what everyone would recommend.

I definitely want the sequential tail lights, they're so cool, loved 'em since I first saw them, just it's $200 for the plug-in kit and the sequence slower.
Just looked at the pics of the chin spoiler, it's growing on me.

I'll likely buy these 2 from American Muscle soon. I just don't want to spend close to $300 until I get payed for a website I made, which should hopefully be in a week or two... So now I wait...

Dont do the sequentials. I think they are awful even on the new mustangs. I guess I am the only one who thinks so. Black out the panel between the tails and save for some new wheels. Lower it like everyone else said and do something with the grille. Oh and btw, not to be a dick but those seats look terrible. Are they just covers? I would remove.

i would get a mach 1 grille delete, chin spoiler, and lower it. i know everyone on here reccomends these three things but they really do make our cars look a lot better. btw i had a black billet grille and it got old pretty fast

What do you think about painting the spoiler black to go with the black bumper inserts? Then maybe the deck lid panel (in vinyl so it's removable if I ever don't like it) Also maybe a hood decal. I already have black side stripes, I just haven't put them on yet.

Here's a black spoiler on silver Mustang:

i think the black spoiler would look good if you tinted your tails as well

I'd really like to make mine look like this (sorry for the bad photoshop):


Quick Question: Do blacked out tail lights effect how other people see your brake lights, is it too dark? Also, do I buy tint for them, or just play it safe and buy blacked out/ tinted tail lights?

just use vht, its pretty easy to do. as for the braklights being too dark, at night, no. during the daytime they will be a little harder to see, depending on how many coats you put on.

I'd say a chin spoiler & a nice set of fogs

Here's the idea again, but with honeycomb tail light trim instead of tinted tail lights. Don't know if I like it, but it's different for sure:

I like the tinted tails much more IMO I have the vinyl blackout kit from StangMods and I love it! It was $60 IIRC...

OK. I'm leaning towards the black deck lid panel, black spoiler, and the honeycomb tail light trim.

How should I paint the spoiler black. I want it to look good, and not chip or wear away. How should I do it, and how much would it cost?
$50 for honeycomb tail light trim and $50 for the deck lid panel. ($100 plus some paint isn't bad at all to completely change the look of the back of my car, I think I'm going to go for it.)

And for the front, maybe a hood decal and blacked out headlights?
