Congratulations on your Stang first off. Between your two choices, I would go with the up-graded headlights as a night safety item. You can see better. Good luck!
New to Mustangs! Need Answers
I am currently driving a 2012 Black V6 (I know I know, but I'm a college student and cant afford a V8 lol) and am looking to make it stand out from the other mustangs. Do you think I should get aftermarket headlights or the CDC chin spoiler from American Muscle first? I will do both eventually I just need to know which one you guys think I should do first, and which one that will stand out more. Any opinions are greatly appreciated :bigthumbsup

There have been a few posts on here that simply adjusting the headlight aim up about an inch (on the garage door) greatly improves the night vision. Just something else to try.
And don't make excuses for driving a V6. There's nothing wrong with them and it's still a Mustang. Heck, it's got more hp that the 4.6 V8 in the 2010 model :winks.

+1 keep it simple and clean...headlights are ok, but IMO I think they make the car look cross eye.I would recommend a chin spoiler, dropping it an inch or so and get some 18x9 wheels with around +35 offset so they sit flush with the fenders. Simplicity is the way to go. I think headlights are a little tacky haha
Corrected. :bigthumbsup The 2010 GT is rated at 315HP and 335lb ft tq.And don't make excuses for driving a V6. There's nothing wrong with them and it's still a Mustang. Heck, it's got more hp that the 4.6 V8 in the 2009 model :winks.
I recommend the chin spoiler as well. It really changes around the 11+ v6 front fascia to look more aggressive. Small changes like that make the overall car more noticeable, it's just harder to put your finger on what's different, IMO.
Then again, you can't go wrong with some Raxiom halo headlights either. They're a much bigger eye catcher.
Good luck with your decision!

I'd highly recommend trying this out. I did the same and it made a world of difference.There have been a few posts on here that simply adjusting the headlight aim up about an inch (on the garage door) greatly improves the night vision. Just something else to try.
An old MG crammed in the passenger seat would DEFINITELY be different! LOL! Especially with the gnarly hole you'd have to cut in the roof of the 'Stang!and put in midget in the passenger seat.:gringreen
Sorry, I have no answer either. :shigrin
