Upgrades

jrodriquez · Feb 4, 2013

Is there any upgrades that will look cool for my 04 mustang that will not only make it fast, but also to impress my friends?

fast and looks dont usually go together.....performance parts arent exactly visible with the exception of intakes

from the exterior? Probably just light-weight wheels, name brand tires, a cat-back exhaust, lowering springs.

here are some easy-to-add modifications for under the hood. They all dont add power but they are all "fancy lookin'"

Strut tower brace.
cold air intake
throttle body
plenum
aftermarket C.O.P.s
Fire-wall clutch cable adjuster
sub-woofer fuse and wiring
braded fuel lines (probably more work and money than you'll want to put into it at this point.)
battery case and an optima battery
under drive pullies

if you want to get REAL performance add a supercharger.

If you wanted to impress your friends, why did you buy a mustang? Lolol

Welcome! if you want a cheap performance upgrade then do lower rear end gears. Won't look cool though.

the only thing that looks cool and makes your car fast is something like a blower

wheels and a drop. then blower.

Definately wheels, a spoiler, tint and a blower

The only thing that comes to mind as function+form would be a cowl hood, some lightweight wheels, or a track wing!

I've found that the only thing to really impact performance, while making the car look infinitely better is staying diligent with the golden rule.

"no fat chicks"

Defilently go complete stock... every one enjoys a stock plain old mustang... ;p

put the stock tail lights on, No Cheddar tails= Impressive

*tail

Run some 18in 10th anniversary w/ a 2.5 in steel cowl spoilerless. Thats the way to go.
