The s281 wing is all you need to make that car look bad ass. The cobra bumper is cool but I would just do the wing, and as for painting your side mirrors that is only for people who like to waste money. Save your money for more performance.
 
I think your car looks really nice as is. The clear headlights give it a nice clean look. Im not a huge fan of the cobra wheels but it sounds like you like them so if you like them keep em. If you had to do some type of body mod i would say maybe a cobra bumper.
 
I don't like painted mirrors. It looks cheap to me. Everytime i see a Mustang with painted mirrors it reminds me of a $250 maaco paint job where the sprayed all the trim. I don't mean to offend anyone, but that's the first thing I think of.

The only painted mirrors I like are the 03/04 cobra mirrors. They look classier because the base is still black but the folding part is painted.



As for what I would do to your car??? 96-98 Cobra hood for sure. Best hood for the 94-98 in my opinion.

I like the wheels..i have the 96-97 versions on my FOx. Maybe toss a set of Cobra 13" brakes behind them for $340 from buyfordracing.com. I consider those an appearance mods as i have them and get lots of comments
