How much are you looking to spend? A pro 5.0 shifter would be a good gift if he wants a shifter. And every stang needs a loud exhaust system.

their like $170 depends where you buy it. it can vary a couple of dollars. but you can figure about $200 with shipping.
you can also look into a MGW shifter or a stedda.


why oh why couldn't me wife be like this.
it's funny my wife always complains that i work to many hours. but she buys me a **** load of work clothes for X-mas. something for the stang would nice.

Sounds like he's got some go fast goodies but can he stop, I would say get him a set of crossdrilled or slotted rotors and pads. EBC rotors and pads is what I'll get down the road.

you could get him some Eibach Pro-kit or sportline springs, i think u can get both new off ebay for like $187

pro kit lowers the car 1.5"
sportline lowers it 2"

shifter would also be cool...i hated my long shifter

Cross-drilled rotors would be cool too, especilly since he recently got new wheels, it would help accent the new wheels. i dont know where to get those or how much they are...

For $250, you could get him a couple of things. Subframe connectors($100) and they are incredible. Let's see, what else........uuuumm, battery relocate kit, crap, I can't think of anything right now. The shifter would be the best bet. Steeda or Pro 5.0 would be my choice.

tint or re/tint the windows, get it professionaly detailed, prolly look real nice after that, guess you'd have to "borrow" the car for a while though, may make it tough to be a surprise. good luck

get him all parts required for a tune up probably $100-125,and then get him an oil change full synthetic $40-50, and then get him a full tank of premium, and then you tell him he's ready for a summer of cruisin and to take for a ride(in the stang)!
