well, im more looking for appearancewise, I might do a K&N air filter and if I end up needing a difference exhaust ill do something with that, but thats about it. Im talking body mods, and so on. BTW how much horsepower does a K&N filter add, same question for the SVT exhaust

..New Carpet..drool

I'll do that someday

Whatever you look for to make your ride nicer just DON'T paint anything. I tried it and it just doesn't look OEM to me. Just my two cents tho.

What about all the free mods? (You said appearance so I will leave out the free (VERY LITTLE) performance mods...)


What about:
  • debadging your car ("Contour" "GL", etc)
  • knauberizing your doors (the door-ding strips on each door being removed for a clean/sleek look)
  • a GOOD wash/wax will aid in the appearance of ANY car.. not JUST a wash... a GOOD ONE..
  • hightower headlights if you feel comfortable breaking in to your headlight assy..


CHEAP:
  • ALL SORTS of LED mods, both inside and out
  • tinted taillights
  • sidemarkers
  • painted reflectors (in the case of pre-98s it wouldn't matter)
  • mesh front grill.. elky comes to mind, but gutter guard will...work
  • custom "ford" emblem
  • tons of others...

Well, im thinking of some basic 5 spoke rims, probibly 16 in like the size of the SVT's. Ive been looking at pictures I found on this site, and its starting to spark my interest



I was also thinking about geting blue tail lights. and MAYBE a car bra. I also found some new white gauges that are like the SVT ones that I really liked.
