New rims. Now what?


Got my chrome cobras on.
Looking for opinions on what to do next to compliment the rims.

...along the lines of-
take the black mustang decal off?
what color calipers?
tint the tail lights?
mach 1 chin spoiler or grill delete?
different exhaust tips?
lowering springs?



Before


After





ideas?

so to remove that decal you just use a heat gun & peel off?
then just wax/buff

i'd say remove the decal and lower it...just that would look sweet.
grill delete and chin spoiler and tinted tail lights if you want...but it's not needed.
