Default Show your mods for under $50

shipping excluded of course. Show off your "mini-mods" that didn't break the bank and that still added a nice amount of flair to your stang.

My personal favorite on is my door welt trim that i have in the door panels, around the map dome light, around the rear seat latch, and around the rear speaker.

I also added Sylvania Silverstar light bulbs that added a nice amount of brightness to the road and just plugged right into place. nice and simple

I also took off the "M" center caps and added "281" caps on my 18" DD chrome bullitts.

3rd brake light cover that says "mustang"

4.6L V8 badge on the hood scoop in silver

GT power plug (my car didn't come with the 12v cover from the dealer for some reason....)

Red brake caliper paint. make the wheels a lot nicer looking

Custom vanity plate WLDSTNG

UPR cupholder and UPR E-brake bezels

Underhood caps i have the dipstick, oil cap and power steering cap so far. expensive as heck but less than $50 a piece.

lets see some pics from you guys and girls

Man I think the cheapest aftermarket part I have on my car is my Bullitt fuel door which ran me from $60-70. I would like to add those billet pieces under the hood and maybe inside the car as well.

one of my favorites but haven't personally installed it yet is the 05-07 trunk release button kit for inside the center console. seeings how the only way to open the trunk on my 2006 gt is with the key or the button on the remote. its actually on sale on americanmuscle right now

Magnetic Blackout Panel ($40) I was mildly interested when I first saw it online so I kept an eye out hoping to see one in person at a show. I never did, but once the price dropped, I bought one anyway. It's a very tight fit around the medallion and covers nicely, but I'm paranoid about water collecting behind it so I take it off in bad weather. I've fallen in love with the look and plan to have the deck painted permanently when I get rid of my spoiler.

8" Shorty Antenna ($20) This really cleans up the right fender. It's funny how much I enjoy a new, unobstructed view of my hood from the right side. Photos look nicer without the huge factory antenna. In fact, the shorty tends to "disappear" into the darkness of the windshield when viewed at certain angles.

Painted My Mufflers (less than $15) This nice little DIY practically made my mufflers disappear creating a cleaner look for the back. The guard around the gas tank was painted black at the factory to hide it - now the mufflers match. Just clean, mask and shoot with flat black spray paint intended for refinishing BBQ grilles.

I like my painted calipers and the painted muffler.
The muffler housing just blends in and lets the tip stand out, and I LOVE my yellow calipers
I'm still debating on the tire marker to give my tires white lettering...

I did that to my 97 Mountaineer. I changed all 9 light bulbs since it had a ton to hyper blue like that. Everyone in my family is glaring at me and telling me not to do it to the stang. I might have to disappoint them after seeing that just now

I did the blue Led map light too, they look cool at night just like this video , nice inexpensive touch I think ( 20.00 or so maybe less ) I have a bunch under 50.00 too many to name, but really I didnt want to take the time to make a list

It would seem I cannot edit my earlier post.

So anyway, here are photoshops with the plate frame darkened out.
