I have $400 dollars or so to spend and I was wanting some suggestions. I'm not sure to get something for performance or the looks... suggest either one. My current performance mods are:
JLT ram air
3.73s
SCT tuner
King Cobra Clutch
BBK Lowering springs (looks or performance, your choice)

Visual mods:
shifter knob
a/c knobs
floor mats
grille delete
Black "MUSTANG" bumper stickers
FRPP pedals
Clear lens headlights. Cobra R style.

My car is a 2000 Mustang GT 5-speed Performance Red. Stock rims.

Any suggestions?

I forgot to add that I do have Weld in Flowmasters. They were on the car when I bought it.

2 things

shifter it does have a big change...

but the biggest of all is the 3:73 gears you will not regret it at all only when you have no tires less.... gears is by far still one of he best bangs for the buck you feel like your car has 50 more hp with them not that it actually does.... do gears man all the way...

I've been looking at the MGW. I'll keep that at the top of the list for now. Would you spend $100 on a chin spoiler? Those things are so overpriced its crazy.. IMO.

I don't know about the Scottrade account... This is just some extra money I made doing some construction. I have all the saving money in check.

No, but that's personal preference.

If you don't think you are going to get longtube headers anytime soon, and if your local emissions laws and sound ordinances are not an issue, you could get an offroad H-pipe to go with the shifter, both should total about $400, and both should bring a big smile to your face.

Oh yeah, the chin spoiler is a must...... it hides all that stuff hangin down under
there, makes the front end look 100 % better.

Shifter, off-road h, and/or chin spoiler. Should be able to get 2 of the three and if you shop used for the shifter and exhaust, maybe you can swing all three.

I think I'm going to go with a shifter. I don't know about 400 bucks worth of fluids. Thanks though.
