2005 Mustang Questions on front bumper replacement

tjproto · 02-05-2009

Hi all, I just got a 2005 Mustang V6 on Sunday (woo!) and am looking into buying some upgrades for it. I'm interested in the C-500 Front Bumper Complete Kit..

But it includes fog lights, will my V6 work with them?

Also, I'm interested in an exhaust system that has a pretty loud sound, and looking for a deep and rumbling tone. Any brands (Borla or Flowmaster look the best to me) in particular are any better than others? Also what style (X, H, Y) would give me the closest to the tone I'm looking for?

Another thing, does anyone here have a Pioneer AVIC-F Series head unit? I'm almost sold on the F900, but would really like to hear what people think about it before I buy it.

Also, any other cheap upgrades to buy when just starting out? Necessities or useful things I should know about? You guys are the only people I would trust with my new baby!

Thanks!

Congrats on the new ride! You'd need to get the foglight wiring harness and switch for them to work.

for the front bumper with fog lights your going to need this

Moss Mustang Store - Parts and Accessories for your Ford Mustang

it's through moss muscle one of the site sponsers.

now down to business.. for that sound you want get a h-pipe and flowmasters or gt takeoff mufflers. you'll get a nice deep sound. you can do headers too for an even more unrestricted flow. get rid of your stock why pipe..

and as far as starter mods try a cold air intake. that will help with making your exhaust sound deeper. and a tuner. that should keep you busy for a little bit

i made my own harness, took about ten bucks

i elected a rocker switch, so when my brights are on, i got fogs too

it really does help!

Congrats on the Mustang!

You'll find a few options on how to wire. Easiest way would be to buy a kit. But making your own, well there is nothing wrong with that.
