Default 1998 v6 mustang few general questions

I've had my mustang for around a year now and just recently I had dual exhaust put on my car which I really enjoy.
Also did alittle to the inside nothing major just floor mats, wheel cover, and seat covers.
But what i have instore for my mustang is i have a pioneer radio i just bought 2 12's amp box replaced all the stock speakers with 6x8 4 way speakers and thats all getting hooked up tommrow.
Also since i love the v6 auto im changeing my shifter around to give it a more custom look
Like most people in a week im picking up some 17x8 rims and tires to put on it as well.
Then alittle futher in the future i'm tinting the windows replaceing the head and tail lights. Tranny is getting rebuilt a K&N air filter put on it. Also going to lower it around 1.5" and getting repainted the same color it is now i love the blue
I'll have more picks soon and i would like to hear what ya'll think
also money isnt to much of a problem this is my only money consuming hobby
Thanks in advance for the advice

Sounds good man. Are you planning on doing any performance mods later in the future? Or are you just planning on doing non performance mods?

i like a custom nice looking sleek car

but performance wise mind you money isnt a issue here
what would be a good suggestion?
thanks in advance

You need to have a goal before anyone can give you any guidance - what's your goal?

well, since you're not into big mods, I'd say just the little bolt on stuff, at the very least it should help with a couple more MPG

post pictures...er.. my bad AFM doesn't allow pictures. Post a link to some pictures of your car. We'll go from there.

Your car looks Atlantic blue in your avatar. If so, Black FR500 rims with Deep dish rear, eibach pro-kit lowering springs, spoiler delete, new headlights (BOI headlights) with HID's, 5% window tint all the way around, tinted taillights (or flat black taillight bezels). Those are the basic mods that will make your car look amazing for pretty cheap.

The more expensive mods include, either slap a Saleen Body kit or Cobra Front Bumper, with a nice Cobra 2.5" Hood, and you'll car will be


I'm working my way toward that somewhat, only I have performance goals more in mind.
