I painted my interior for about $30 bucks, thats about it..

Keep the car waxed to reduce friction. You can also cut the airbox and add a k&N.

TEXASPAUL 01-09-2006 04:00 PM

Borla Exhaust and a BBK Cold Air Intake, both free (slightly used). My uncle is cool as ****! A friend of my brothers has some 3.73s laying around that I'm thinking of adding next.

I know it makes the air....not quite, but is there any other use for it,or is there any harm in removing it..

No harm in removing it.Allow's it to breath a little better.Supposed to anyway.

relax kid, nobody is going to go around giving out free parts when there's plenty of people that would pay for them. besides his car is a gt, yours is a six pack. the parts wouldnt work for you.

Im just yanking your chain but Im sure it does do something but not enough to be noticable. I however would suggest shaving your left arm of body hair if you like to hang your arm on the door while driving. This will reduce the friction of the air passing over you arm.

hahahaha, nice venom.

waxing your car is proven to reduce gas mileage if you drive long distance at high speeds on the highway.

3: Taillight tints are like 20 bucks on Ebay...
4: Stripes are cheap too like 40 bucks
5: if you get a strong enough bolt cutter you can shorten the Antenna
6: keeping it clean always helps appearance 1143541235%

venom 01-11-2006 02:36 PM

Stripes are cheap and make a huge difference. The biggest issue is if you are going to have someone do it then it will go up alot in price. If you have patience go for it.

crookstang 01-11-2006 03:32 PM

Grimmz: I was reading a article where they cut the antenna down with a hacksaw..just another method. And I agree 100% with keeping it clean. I always hate seeing a dirty mustang. Mine sees cleaning and polishing almost daily.
